Snakes and Spiders and Stuff






















William has decided that mowing the lawn is his chore of choice. I am not sure if it is because Uncle Jeff pays so well or if he rather enjoys the satisfaction of knowing his little muscles could accomplish such a task. Either way I find the whole idea cute, if not admirable for his determination to do everything himself, start to finish, so I felt the need to share a few pictures of this undertaking.

On this very day we were introduced to this hairy creature by our neighbor Bob. Yes that is a large brown spider and yes that is an egg sack attached to her back side. She was not too pleased to be in captivity, although I don't think neighbor Bob was all that excited about her hundreds of babies being released in his yard.
We were also graced with the presence of yet another snake. This one met his unfortunate end where the rubber met the road, namely the school bus. William carried him to his grave by his tail and that was the end of that. I am sure some critter in the woods had itself a nice dinner.
