Kermit

Due to my intense need to take a nap, Brandon took along 3 tag-a-longs to harvest this afternoon. When they returned home they brought gifts:
A rootbeer
Dill pickle sunflower seeds
and

FROGS!


I have never seen happier kids.

Apparently a whole slew of frogs are living underneath the scale out at the beet dump.

Meet Softy (Kameryn's frog) Fastest (Cooper's frog) and Rainbow (Landon's frog)
There are only 2 frogs pictured above. Rainbow at the top of the photo and either Fastest or Softy below.

Landon's frog is the really big one. Kami and Cooper's frogs look identical to me but Kami insists that one of the frogs with brown eyes has green eyes and the other frog with brown eyes has blue eyes. That's how you tell them apart.

The kids are outside bug hunting.
Cooper just came running in as I typed this with his rollie-pollie he collected yesterday
(his very best pet that he loved so much)
and asked

"Mom, can frogs eat rollie-pollies?"

You got to be careful with that kid. One minute you're his friend, the next second you are lunch for his new friend. Scary life for a bug.

  2. That's true to life, don't you think? Some days you feel like your on top of the food chain & others you feel like your on the bottom of the barrel! LOL
