BUG!!!




Today after we got home from church, Nathan announced to the children, "if you want to see the biggest bug ever, come see this." I didn't even bother to look at the time since I was in a rush to feed everybody. So later in the afternoon when we went outside to go for a walk, we were surprised to see the bug was still in our yard, on the driveway actually. Nate was right, it definitely IS the biggest, furriest, strangest beetle-like bug we've ever seen! I just love the way the kids all got down on the ground to study it. Just another benefit of living in Arkansas!

Okay that's the sickest thing I've ever seen. I had to kill a stinkbug in my house last week and I nearly passed out. I poked it and it hitched up it's back end like it was going to spray and I had to crunch it and I nearly threw up. So I don't know what I would do if I encountered one of THOSE!
