Just like Indy - Snakes, Why Did it Have to Be Snakes?

My sister Adrienne gave Zach a wooden snake for his birthday about three years ago. I really hate this thing. It might not look so real in the picture, but when you are not expecting a snake and you move something and it is sitting there it really makes you jump!

Ali and Dave have found this to be quite funny!!! I on the other hand don't find the humor in it unless they are the ones being got.

I have been so tempted to throw this stupid snake in the garbage, just so I am not worried about where it is going to show up next.

To my displeasure over the last week I have found this snake in numerous places. Ali thinks it is really funny to stash it in your bed to try to get you. Dave put it in my purse on Friday morning last week. If we have something to be mailed he will put the mail on top of my purse so I won't forget it. Well I picked up the mail - ready to leave for the day and that stupid snake was in my purse with it's head looking up at me. Yes, he got me!

Friday night Ali put it on Dave's side of the bed and then came in the room as he was about to climb in, she probably would have got him if she didn't have a huge cheesy grin on her face that gave her away.

Then again tonight, Ali put it on Dave's side of the bed in hopes to get him (he is really afraid of snakes), well I pulled the covers down and reveled the snake and I jumped instead of him. After about a week of hiding the snake they stop for awhile until I am wondering where it is and they start all over again a few months later. One of these days I really am going to put it in the trash. You can hear giggling all over the house when mom has been gotten by the snake. I personally think it is funnier if Dave is the one that jumps!
