Bullfrog

If you know Cole, you know that he LOVES frogs.  Loves them.  Deeply and passionately.  One might go so far as to say that frogs are his favorite thing EVER (besides me).  Today was a GREAT day for Cole because he hit the motherload jackpot with the rare finding of a GIANT bullfrog. 

Look at the extreme elation on his face.  Near delirium.  Unadulterated joy.

These are the facts of the bullfrog as stated by Cole: 
-His name is AJ. 
-His estimated age is probably ten years old. 
-The webbed skin between his toes is extremely fragile, and helps him move faster. 

I wasn't with the boys during this magnificent discovery (otherwise I don't know that Cole would've been allowed to get so up close and personal with AJ), so this picture comes from Chad's cell phone.  Guess how bummed I was that Chad didn't take a REAL camera with him?  Chad Boyd!  Have you learned nothing from me????  It's also worth noting that Chase found AJ's twin, a tiny frog, named Pay Jay.  Obviously they are fraternal given their vast differences in size.  No pictures of Pay Jay.  Curse you, Chad.  But love you for taking the boys on such fun adventures!
