Jake has been dying to catch lightening bugs this summer. We went out about 10 days ago and tried to catch some...Jake ended up with one and Allie with none. Our yard seems to repel the lightening bugs. He got to catch some at Nana & Papa's a few days ago and he asked to give it another try tonight. Scott, the kids & I all headed out to try again. There were only a few in the yard, but Scott & I were certain that we could catch some for the kids. We are pretty sure that catching the bugs was MUCH easier as a child. After about 30 minutes outside we caught zero bugs!! It was pitch black out by the time we came inside...maybe we can get some tomorrow night...or maybe we'll just have to go somewhere else to catch them :)
