giggin' toads

On Sunday, we went outside to check out the "super moon" and although it was supposed to be huge & bright, our was a beautiful red color!  While out there, we saw fireflies, so we ran for our jar to catch some. But, those buggers have proven elusive this year -- we only see a few and they stay up to high in the trees to catch. So, we STILL haven't caught any fireflies yet!  But, while we were out there, we saw a toad and caught it.
And then we realized the yard was covered in toads, so we grabbed a flashlight and spent the night catching toads.
 
We'll try for fireflies another night :-)
