So Monday night Uncle Phil and Aunt Sylvia came to spend the night on their way back to Phil's house from visiting their cousin Rick and wife Lisa in Philadelphia. Kyla had to do a load of laundry because Tim was out of PT uniforms. As she reached for the stain
pre-
treater, she saw the snake slithering across the washer to the dryer. It was about thumb width and 2-3 feet long. It hid under Kyla's shoes while she screamed for Uncle Phil to come be a snake wrangler. Kyla called it a "dead bug" because she doesn't want to push her fears on the girls and they already don't like bugs. Tim came home from work about 3 minutes into deciding how to catch and release the snake. On our first attempt, the snake fell off the dryer and slithered under the dryer. Tim was there to sweep it out, pick it up with tongs and throw it outside. It was hot, so the snake was wide awake and
feisty. Kyla was so happy Tim and Uncle Phil were there because she does NOT like snakes at all. Sadly, the event was so traumatizing, Kyla didn't get any pictures of Uncle Phil or Aunt Sylvia, or have them sign the guest book.
