Fantasy Football and Frogs

Football season is upon us! Mike convinced me to join his fantasy football league and tonight was the draft. Even though I had to pick tenth (which is not good) we still had a lot of fun just hanging out in the spare room at my in-law’s house for an hour or so. We rarely get a moment to spend with each other lately, so this really was a treat. The first game is Sunday – so let the games begin! And may the best woman win!!!

The fun-ness of the evening turned disastrous as we entered our home and a frog followed us in! The little bugger hopped inside, into Hayden’s bedroom, and under his changing table! My first thought was “Get the vacuum!” but knowing that would not be very humane of me Mike came to the rescue! However, he is just as big of a girl as I am when it comes to these things so he comes running in with my salad tongs! He didn’t want to touch it with his bare hands! Since the thing was hiding under the changing table Mike got strategically positioned as I picked up and moved the table. The little guy hopped away again and tried to hide behind the bookcase in Hayden’s room, but there wasn’t enough room. HA! We had him cornered. Mike snatched him up with the tongs and set the stinker free outside.

PHEW!

Good for you on the Football !

I love frogs, so I'm glad you rescued him and put him outside...he can eat a ton of bugs in one day, so he needs to live in your yard !
