Ew, EW, EWWWWW!!!!

I was doing laundry today and for those of you who don't know, we have a 2nd washer and dryer in our garage. I'm so thankful for this because we use it very often...probably even daily. So, I was doing laundry and had thrown in a pile of muddy clothes (from when the boys played in the mud for the umpteenth time).

When they were finished, I threw a handful in the dryer. I grabbed a 2nd handful and when I threw it in the dryer, I heard a big "PLOP" on the concrete floor. I looked down and thought I was going to die!! I ran from the washer screaming and the kids ran over to see what the fuss was (they were outside, playing in the hose).

Here is what fell out of my washing machine!!! Keep in mind that it had gone through a full cycle and that I had grabbed the pile of clothing from the floor and reached in to get the clothes out with my bare hands!!! AAAAUUUUGGGHHHHH!!! I can hardly stand to think about it hours later, even! Ok, here is what fell out:



What? You say you need a closer look??



I KNOW!!!!! I ABOUT DIED!!!! To think that I stuck my hand into that washing machine with that big, dead, TOAD in there! It was all mushy and squishy! BLECH!!!

The kids thought it was great, though. EW!
