They're Everywhere!

Not only are we sleeping in our living room, we also have spiders. Now in case you don't know, I HATE spiders. It's usually ok because I can yell at Nolan and he'll come and kill it for me. Sadly he wasn't home the other morning when I found this little sucker standing between me and my shower. Granted, I could've just skipped the shower, washed my face and thrown on a hat but I'd still have to spend time in the same room as this giant ugly thing. So I grabbed my shoe and tried to get up the courage to take him out on my own. But as I was getting ready to swing I panicked and started to think, what if it moves and I miss and it jumps on my arm? I abandoned the idea of using my shoe and went for one of Nolan's boots. When I finally got up the courage to attack it was no contest between the boot and the spider. After disposing of the body I started to think. Why are they coming after me? I thought Lisa was their target. Then it hit me. They think I'm easier prey! They'll take me out and then when Lisa is incapacitated from grief over losing the greatest sister-in-law ever that's when they'll strike. Look out Lisa!

That is the worst blog ever. Oh. My. Gosh. The picture nearly made me scream. It's huge. I'm surprised you lived!!!

It's my fault, I know...the spiders are after my family now. It's worse than I thought!

Hey, I contest "the Greatest Sister-in-law ever". How am I suppose to take that?!

By the way, that spider is huge!! I probably would have sprayed it with hairspray first!! I need to know it is close to being dead before I get to close to it.

Well I have to be honest then....It was really last minute. On Friday evening we talked to them and they were leaving this week with his fam for his birthday and then he's gone for two weeks in Egypt.... We barely made it to the BBQ on time and after it was late and went straight to my parents and then home. Sorry!

Ya Eygpt.... They were Chris' traveling buddies for world tour. The one kid has family connections for inexpensive tickets. So it's pretty cheap for them.

Bree, when Steve and I were first married and he worked the grave shift, I had a GIANT cricket in my bedroom. Chirp, Chirp, CHIRP! I thought I was going to lose my mind. I always had my Dad to kill beast prior to this, but alas...I was alone without a phone. (oh the old days.) I had to do something...so of course I screwed up my courage and I...I....sufficated it with shaving creme. I left him over night for good measure and sure enough....it was dead. Next time you might try that. A little expensive, but you do what you must!!!
