Charlie Brown meet Frog...Frog meet Charlie Brown
i managed to snap a few more pics once i composed myself, caught the frog and released the poor thing back into the yard (hoping the dog had just stunned it and not killed it, since it was a fairly easy catch). Zoey chased it around a little more before it managed to hop under the gate to safety. (ignore the poop in the pics, i haven't gotten around to picking it all up)
The other night Jordan went frog hunting, she does this now and then...we have a lot of frogs. i of course took a few pictures of her and this seems like a good place to post them...and YES she is wearing her pink double trouble shirt. this is only the second time she has worn it but this happened to be the same night i took pics of her game room too....so no its not the only article of clothing she has. funny story actually, the other day we were picking outfits for the week (she likes to do this its her OCD...lol...)and she said, "HolleeAnn i don't think i have had any repeats." not sure what she is talking about i ask her to explain and she goes on to say, "since school started, i haven't worn the same outfit twice to school yet on the weeks i am home with you guys." i think about it and she is correct...mix and match, new and old...the girl has a better wardrobe than her dad and me combined. and she also has 18 pairs of shoes...yes i know i need to be stopped..is an issue. oh well...back to the pics...
hey now no kissing for a prince yet!

The live action naturepictures are wonderful. We must have your talents here at The National Geographic Society. Please contact us immediately as we are always looking for individuals with a keen eye towards capturing the events that occur around us each day. Please, please, please.. more pictures of frogs and dogs!
We here at PETA are outraged at the things people will do to animals for their own sport and amusement. From this moment consider your blog boycotted by PETA and all individuals that share our love and concern for the creatures that do not have a voice. Rest assured, we will not stand for this abuse of defenseless animals at the hand of uncaring and cold blooded humans such as yourself.
lol...she is soo brave!! eww frogs!!
I seem to recall my capture 4 years ago involved being placed for 4 days in a Red Vines container that Hal drilled air holes in (because why wouldn't he have a spare cordless drill handy on a camping trip)and then taken to a classroom full of 4 year olds who poked and prodded at me. animal abuse indeed.
Ruben was released into the wild, i think...right?
that's hilarious that zoey found a frog...at least it's not something from the rodent family! I am much more fond of my memories of chasing Reuben all over my classroom than my memories of chasing Patch. Zoey is reeealy cute!
no! Reuben was brought back to my classroom where he climbed out of the container during the night and died in a "leaping" position (seriously, one leg was mid-air) on the floor by the bathroom. I came in early the next morning and spied him across the room, and thought that rather than catch him and put him into the new tank myself, it might be fun to wait and let the kids catch him. Poor Billy went up to him and poked him and then cried, "i think Reuben fell asleep Miss Meg...how come he's not slimey anymore?"
I then had to give a talk about death to six 4 year olds, which they didn't understand at all, so i gave up and said, "Um, Reuben's going to sleep in the trash on these nice paper towels...they're really, um, soft." and I threw him away.
oh yeah i forgot all about that!!! way too funny!
"No repeats" that is hillarious! My daughter is 14 and she actually writes down what she wears every day so she doesn't repeat an outfit. I thought it was some odd High School thing (I went to Catholic School, we had uniforms). But it looks like your daughter is starting to care early. Too funny!
