our new creature!

so we finally got the new door frame put in and therefore thought that would be the end to our life in the wild. unfortunately we were quite wrong, because as erik was going downstairs yesterday he came across this:

this creature was crawling around on our carpeted stairs! barely visible, completely blending in with the floor! and he used my glass to capture it! my glass!













i just stood around and screamed and got my camera to take pictures only after it was securely maintained within the glass and plate barrier.
erik safely released the lizard type gecko creature into the wild. this was only after him pointing out that we could have eaten him in our sleep if we weren't careful. thanks honey.

then he stood victoriously in our itty bitty kitchen. he is after all... my hero.
