A Tale of Two Spiders

A couple weeks ago some friends invited us over to play on their huge blow up water slide.  The boys had so much fun.  I must admit, I was a little sad I didn't bring my swim suit.  When we got home I found a little (alright it was a pretty good size for a spider) stow-away in the swim bag.  He must have walked in or grabbed onto a towel.  I didn't want to crush it in the swim bag so I was trying to catch it and set it free.  While I was catching the spider I found another little spider in the bag too.  I decided to have a little fun.  Since I already found myself attached to the bigger jumping spider I caught both spiders in a Jar... the same Jar!  It was good fun.  It took a little while to get both spiders close enough for the big one to eat the little one, but it did! I felt triumphant.  Matt suggested that I now feed the big spider to one of the tarantulas, but that just seem sad (I liked the jumping spider).  I like my tarantulas too, but they get fed store bought bugs. So I set the spider free, and the next morning I found a molt just where I left it! I hope he grows up big and strong to eat more little bugs in my house!
