The Adventures Of Snail Boy

Ok, so the picture is out of focus but you get the idea.

We had a nice little rain shower yesterday afternoon, and being summer my kids hit the dirt ( or mud) afterwards looking for fun stuff. What they found were tons of snails. They spent a good hour out there catching them. Now I am not the biggest fan of the snail. I can handle most bugs, but snails = yuck. I insisted that they at least put them in buckets when they came in the house for bed time. You can imagine my surprise when my youngest even pulled a few out of his pants ! Needless to say I tucked in 2 happy boys with a bucket brimming with snails which were released as soon as the boys were happily sleeping.

Haha! I love snails. I think it's funny that they were all over the boys, even down their pants!

You should have saved them. You could have saved Lana's family some money on appetizers at the wedding.

How fortunate you are to have free range escargot!
