Argh! It's a snake!

Rowan was invited to a birthday party today - a creepy crawly party where a guy came to show the kids spiders and lizards and snakes and stuff! *grins*

Rowan was very, very nervous about it, but didn't want to miss out on a party so we went. I made the fatal mistake of offering to stick around, so of course I then had to stay - but I can't say I minded too much. Could've done without the inevitable post-children's party headache though.

It took him quite a while to get into it - he kept sneaking out into the other room when he got overwhelmed, but would come back in when I told him what new creature was being shown. Stayed well away when the tarantulas came out though! *laughs*

I took over a hundred photos during the demonstration, but I'm not going to spam you all with them - besides, I know not everyone wants to see photos of snakes, or tarantualas. Or the millipedes that pooed on peoples arms, or the toad that wee'd all over the floor... ;-)

So, if you do want to see the pictures - and the expressions on the kids faces (I took one especially because of the look on Edith's face! *grins* Priceless!) - feel free to look here. Enjoy!

Now THAT'S the kind of party I wanted as a kid.

Hee - I don't know what I would have thought of it as a kid, but my mother would never have even considered it. :-)

*ruffles your spiky hair* I got some of that 'legendarny smack' in the cupboard, wanna share? ;-)

You want the long answer or the short answer?

"Yeah" as opposed to "Hells yeah!", I take it? ;-)

That looks like it was so much fun. I would have loved a party like that when I was a kid. And some of the kids faces were just priceless.
