Kids new found friends.

A week ago Cassie and Dave decided to bring some of the local river inhabitants home and throw them in the pool. Well two toads and 3 frogs later..... mating season! I'm not sure if you've ever been so unfortunate to hear toads call out to their potential mates all day and all nite, but it sounds like a 6th grader with huge lungs giving the ole collage try on a trombone. Today we had the liner in the pool replaced and we noticed eggs developing on the toads. Well, Cassie decided it was too cruel to the frogs and toads to lose the broods to the pool filter. So, she and Dave packed up the pre-pubescent brass quartet and hauled them back down to the river.
Two hours later the Toads and frogs were happily back in their homes far away from our pool and more importantly our back windows. However, Cassie in her infinite wisdom thought it would be a good idea to bring this home......

A five pound Carp....Alive.


Lucky for us, our Redneck neighbors eat Carp!

    That is a huge fish. How on earth did you catch it? With your hands? Looks like everyone is enjoying it out there (now that the snow is gone, right Tara?).

    Love you all!! Can't wait to see you!!
