Our very own ant farm.
With Miles' fascination with the creatures, I had actually considered getting him an ant farm for Christmas but I think he would have a hard time not being able to touch and/or crush them so I decided against it. But this is an interesting alternative. It is disgusting and shocking but at the same time very cool to be able to watch the army of ants and their larvae.
A few hours after I took this picture I came back to check and they had cleared out, only to reappear later that evening. The printer function still works but if you try to scan or copy, it is a jumbled mess because of the ants. They weren't there two days ago. I can't get to them to exterminate them because they are under the glass. And, although I'm not the biggest animal lover, I feel bad disrupting their kingdom. What do I do?
I looked it up and I found someone else who had the same problem in Hawaii in 2002 and posted a picture here.

you have got to be kidding me!! I would have freaked out if I saw that in person!! I freaked out just seeing a picture:) It was fun talking to you today!!
Yikes! That is gross. I was looking at your old posts and I am so jealous you're still wearing shorts and short sleeves. Miles and his little ant pinching is so funny. They have no inhibitions about that stuff!
Lynn...why is there nothing in here about WA???? You do have something to say right? BTW, all are so cute in your house and we're glad your folks are safe. The Lord definitely hears the prayers of the children!
