I have made it no secret to my children that I have MAJOR arachnophobia. I have tried so hard to not pass this down to my children. When a spider appears I tell my brain, don't react just act calm. Of course it is not in my nature to act calm.
Apparently here in Nevada they have very large spiders. We have been witnessing these large guys first hand. With the weather being so cold at night these little guys have worked there way into my home. At least once a day I have found one crawling somewhere in the house.
Here's where the kids come into play. Brandan has decided that we can't kill these guys. We must save them. He is scared to death of them, but by no means are we allowed to kill the little creepy crawlers. Mr. McNally and I are faced with a major moral delima do we kill the spider like a normal family, or do we try our best to preserve the little guy and set him free. So far the latter has not happened, but please don't tell my little Brandan.
As soon as I get over my fear of these ugly creepy crawlers I will post a picture. If you know me at all you aren't holding your breath for that picture.

I feel they are unwanted guests inside the house but just pop them in the nearest container and set them free. It's less messy. Tim on the other hand feels the need to smash them where ever they are. I am with Brandan on this one. I agree with you, the normal family's instinct is to take care of them at that moment quick and painless. My name is Amy and I am a bug saver.
You guys are freaking hillarious. Amy and Brandan saving the world one bug at a time. We squash em!
Oh, my!!
I'm holding my breath for a picture. Are they like the one that tried to eat us as we sat in Leslie's camping chairs????
KILL, KILL, KILL!!!!!
