Summer Fun...For Braylon Anyway

When we opened our pool (after the cover coming off mid-way through winter and not being able to get it back on) it was a mess! We had been invaded by frogs! My mom has a rule at her house that if a frog is near her pool it dies a quick death. Neither Drew nor I really wanted to massacre all these frogs (we captured 7) so we decided to put them in Braylon's plastic frog "sanctuary".
The poor frogs soon began begging for a quick, merciful death! Braylon loved them! And surprisingly they lasted almost two weeks. Over time 5 escaped, the remaining 2 were not so lucky. After we were out of town weekend before last and then very busy last week, we found them dead and crusty in the "sanctuary".

But before their demise, if Bray was outside, he had the frogs in hand. Here he is running through the sprinkler...frog in fist.

Getting a good splash, frog in fist!

Taking a rest...frogs in fists.
Frogs and snails and puppy dog tails...that's what boys are made of!
