A Frog in My Bathtub!

This past October, or maybe it was early November, we had a frost warning. Judy brought all of her outside plants in and just quickly stuck them in our master bedroom bathtub. We don't use it, only our granddaughters do when they are here, so it was a good place to put the plants and water them (the water control also has a hose/sprayer attachment). One night about 3 weeks ago I heard a weird noise. It occurred twice then stopped. The next night, same thing. I said to Judy that it sounded like a tree frog. We never heard it again after that. Well, last Saturday Judy decided to work on some of those plants - cutting off dead stuff, refreshing the plants, etc. Suddenly she says to me, "There's a frog in my bathtub!" Sure enough there was a tree frog, which is now happily traversing our yard some place. Here is the picture to prove it. (You can click on the picture for a bigger shot, if you must.)


Now, on to prettier things. Here is our Christmas tree (see Kari's here and her two beautiful girls). You can see the lights on some of our front porch columns. Judy has done a really great job of decorating this year, kind of rearranged the house some. But the neat thing is she has decorated. With the little girls living with us last year, and Judy still working, it just wasn't feasible to do much decorating. (Who knows, I may post other pictures of our decorations in future blogs.)


O K, Stephanie, your turn to show off your tree!
