Trick pic #9~ The answer unveiled!

Yes, Kaitlyn... 
It is a toad. And since you said  you couldn't see it... you just know it is a toad because you read this post...

And gave me many laughs during your search...

I cropped it for you. Can you see it now? I know it gets kind of blurry up close, sorry. But it is right there... in the middle...
And I have to say, this was my favorite trick pic up to date, and I almost didn't post it! I got a good many laughs from the conversation it caused, and since laughter is good medicine, that is a good thing right now... cough, cough...
It's a good thing that being sick while blogging doesn't spread the illness, haha. Especially since I also have Peter on my lap, who has not snored this hard in a while... Poor baby...

Just sneaking in to post a Trick Pic...

I actually posted this picture last year, but that was before I started Trick pics, and I thought this would make a fun one. Those of you with good memories might remember this, and those of you with (really) good eyes should get it, too. Or somebody with so much time on their hands that they search my whole blog... but I doubt that happens ;)...
This is the whole picture, so these are all the clues you are going to get to see ;).

Trick pic answers, 7 & 8

#8 first. (takes less explanation ;).)

Gramma was completely right- here you have an eye ;).
Bethi was also completely right; this is a turtle's eye :)!

Now for #7...

Now, this one was fun... I'll give it to you in pieces...
Here you have two painted surfaces with an unknown object...

Here you find it is a ceiling, a wall, and a lamb...

And here you find the reason that you have this odd set up of the lamb in the air...

..and yes, that is dignified Bethani...
Credit goes to Tori for taking this humorous picture ;).

So, yes, Kaitlyn... it included a lot of paint ;).
But, Tori definitely got closer ;). She said "A toy sheep thrown up to the ceiling...
Right...?"...
Wait... does it count when she took the pictures?! :)

Oh! Found this while looking for pictures for a (very long ;) ) post I'm working on...

Daddy took this with my "Trick Pic" posts in mind... Although it should have been #6... I forgot about it :P... Therefore, forgive me for posting it as...
Trick pic #8... What is it?
(And I totally agree... this looks kind of gross... the whole picture doesn't look nearly so gooey... ew...)

Another trick pic!

Trick pic #7... And I've got another waiting to post, too, but first things first... What is this picture about?!

Trick pic answer

Kaitlyn, you got it right! Christmas lights from "Lights Before Christmas" at Riverbanks zoo!
...I'll try to share more pictures of our time during that visit home from Daddy later, but that happened last November... so it would really be called old news now ;). If I get to it before the new year, so be it. If not... so be it!

I think it is time for another trick pic!

Trick pic, #6.
What is this picture of?

Trick pics 3, 4, and 5 answers.

Sorry you all have had to wait so long, we've been busy since I've had the card again :).

Trick pic 3 was...

A butterfly!

Here's the picture without being upside down , heeheehee :)...

Trick pic 4 was a...

Butterfly!

Trick pic 5 was a...

Nope, sorry, not a butterfly!

The plastic tunnel that they had at Niven's for the little ones to crawl through :). (I had Mommy and Daddy stumped with this one, and I showed them two hours after I took it ;). Daddy said something metal, but it is really plastic, so there was really nothing to go by ;P...)

...and 5...

This one is a bit tougher than any previous! Any guesses?

...4...

Congratulations Aunt Tessa! Trick pic 1 was, indeed, the web of the spider in trick pic 2 (yes, that was what it was Aunt Tessa and Kaitlyn!).
Daddy took both pictures. Here's the full picture of this *lovely* spider that is living on our porch... (Daddy went to take another look at him less than two hours after this picture was taken, and he had a full web made!)
