Our crazy critter invasion

We came home one day to this...
You have to click on the picture to get a good look, but it's a really cool spider web. I don't like spiders, but I do appreciate their web-making abilities. The spider was just sitting in the center, but by the time I found my camera, it was gone.

The next three were found all in one night...

Kirstie fishes these out daily from our swimming pool. I just LOVE dragonfly's, they bring back great memories of the pond at my grandparents ranch, and (as a bonus) they eat those nasty mosquito's!

While we were getting ready for FHE, Kirstie caught "toady". (I'll take a picture of one, but don't ever ask me to hold it!)

Then when Steve and Kirstie were out front feeding George, they saw a snake "climbing" down a tree. (Again, you have to click on it to get a better look). Steve says it was either a king snake or a bull snake. Apparently it's a good kind to have so we don't get any unwanted rodents.
Three creepy crawlers in one night it just to much for me!

I guess that I am messed up because I just love critters. I will hold them too. (minus the spiders, yikes!) How fun!
