If there is one thing that I am scared of the most it is snakes! Over the years we have had a few run-ins with them, usually small garden snakes, but nothing ever in our home... until today. Cole was outside mowing our yard and was just about finished when he yelled through the front door "Lock the garage door and make sure Connor doesn't come outside! There is a snake in the garage!" Immediately my stomach starts turning at just the thought of it and of course I am imagining this huge venomous snake ready at any moment to attack my poor husband! Can I just say how thankful I am that it was him out there and not me? Well, in case you didn't get the feel for how anxious I was about the scaly creature in my garage here is a visual to help...
Snake vs. Cole
So I stood in the laundry room listening out the garage door... I'm not sure what I was listening for but, I was hoping to hear some clanking sounds to let me know the snake was dead. Well, in the end the snake was defeated and we can all rest a little easier tonight. Cole later told me that it had come from under our neighbors fence and worked it way straight for our garage.
Sorry this next picture is a little graphic, but there was no way I was going to be in the same room with that snake to take a picture while he was alive!
I am so thankful that Cole found the snake before it found us!
Hopefully that is the last time we find any unwelcome guests at our house. :)

Oh kristin, my heart is beating so fast after reading this post! Thank goodness Cole saw it first! I might have fainted if I came face to face with a snake! Did it come from Pauls fence? So glad Connor was not in the garage!!!!
Yikes! So glad Cole saved the day :)
