In case you need a better look, here's another shot...
OK, maybe the first picture is a little dramatic but honestly this wasn't some cute little gecko. I REALLY could hear his claws scape as he tried to scurry across the floor. I wasn't too freaked out because I felt an odd connection to him as well as his family.
It all started 3 1/2 years ago when Matt and I moved into this house. As we were unloading, we saw a monster of a lizard on our driveway. He was incredibly big and incredibly fast. We named him "Lemony Snicket the Lizard that Lives in our Driveway" and made a game out of him. The object of the game was that every time we saw him we had to say, "Hey, there's Lemony Snicket the Lizard that Lives in our Driveway" as fast as we could before he ran away. To date, Lemony has won every time. He's a fast little booger. He's been busy too because over the past 3 1/2 years he has managed to create an entire colony of Lemony Snickets that are now residing in the bush by our front door. (which leads me to suspect that Lemony is in fact a Polygamist) There are tons of them and they are all enormous! It was just a matter of time before one of them got the courage up to make the incredible journey into our humble abode. Lucky for this Lemony descendant, Owen and Rudy were in their crates!

GIRRRLLL- you have been very busy Christmasing up your blog. very good job!
I was laughing so hard at Lemony Sniket!
I am still laughing at the dramatic story-telling that is this entry. Two year old Mae had to come see what the ruckus was about when I scrolled down and saw the pic of the tiny intruder.
