The Joys of the Desert

So last night I was walking out the garage and spotted this huge scorpion, I yelled for Jack and and he came to my rescue. This is the first one I have seen out here, he was totally trying to come into the garage. Nice try!!! This is what you get when you live in the AZ Desert.
Jack had to pin the sucker down and measure him.

Are you kidding me?! I would have had a heart attack! I have seen a few scorpions at my mom's house in Vegas, but nothing like this! I am so glad it didn't bit you!

Love to check in on ya girl. That is freaky and so gross. If you want to see them suffer, i hear dipping them in rubbing alcohol is fun. Ok, maybe a little psycho. xoxo nik

Ewww. Thankfully there's one Skousen man around....or else all you girls would be running around screaming! I miss you so much Amy. We should get together and catch up. I have your cell number now (finally), so I'll be calling you soon. It's just not the same without you guys.

Maicy looks great too. So pretty!

Where do you live now? That is the biggest scorpion ever. Holly found one in her house and stared at it for 30 minutes trying to figure out what to do. Sick.
