I would never have believed it!!

So we are not animal people at our house as most of you know.  My girl’s like dogs from a far, cats make my eyes itch and my skin crawl, Stephen and I both had bird’s in our homes growing up but they truly “belonged” to other family members.  We have only attempted gold fish at our house.  We go to the zoo annually, but we just look.  I don’t like the smell and the mess that animals make.  The reptile house at the zoo is the worst!

Today I got a shocker…just take a look at these pictures and you will see why!  DSCN0318  DSCN0322

Cousin Brex on the Schaff side of the family had a birthday party today.  He had a guy come with all his creepy crawly creatures and told the parents and kids all about them, then he passed out the snakes for everybody to play with!  Avery truly surprised us!  She screamed and squealed through the whole presentation as any girly girl should, but when it came to petting the 100 pound yellow python, no problem!  She couldn’t get enough, she even asked the guy if she could kiss the snake…named Manners, by the way.
