Today we had a visitor.
I’m assuming Mr. rattlesnake was enjoying our golf game in the backyard for some time.
Then he had to go interrupt our game with a little rattle noise.
We told him he wasn’t welcome.
He was banned from our Garden of Eden.

Hey there! I’m Michelle; I’m an Passionate DIY’er and in constant pursuit of how to bring beauty to my house full of men (3 boys + 1 hubby). Stick around and see what I’ve got up my hard-working sleaves!
Here I was complaining that we had snow today… snow means no rattlesnakes though. I don’t know which I’d rather. happy friday! 🙂
hahah i would probably be the crazy lady on top of a table screaming at the top of her lungs “snake snake” lols!!!!
enjoy the lovely weather this weekend 🙂
oh my I hate snakes, how did you get rid of him ?
wow! bravo for snapping a photo. I probably would have fun far away. haha.
I would have had a STROKE!
YIKES!!!
One of the joys of living in the desert!
ahhhh! i have chills up and down my spine. better you than me; i would have had a panic attack.
Holy crap!!! That would scare me to death if I saw that in my backyard. I hate snakes just as much as rats!!!
That’s scary!! Do your kids know enough to never touch a snake in Arizona? We’re coming to Phoenix next week and now I’m freaked out I’m going to step on a snake or something! Yikes!

We get lots of snakes in our backyard here in Australia. Do you get a lot, or only occasionally? We live on two acres in a rural area and see different snakes here all the time, many of which are highly venomous. That’s life in the bush for you!

Michelle, I am totally in love with your blog. I stumbled upon it last night through a link and I have been reading all morning! I find your posts simply hilarious and I can’t get enough of all your DIY projects. You have such a good eye for great finds and I love how you give them NEW LIFE. I featured you on my blog because I am in love with your master bedroom transformation. I am just about to embark on reupholstering a 70’s wingback chair myself and I found your posts quite helpful and inspiring! I will keep checking in on your exciting and FUN life! Great Job (fellow Arizonan, Mother and Designer)

Thankfully it’s been a while since we’ve seen one of these! Great photo 🙂
My boys would have been in heaven!
yuck.
I’m dying to know the source of the moisture in the picture…
A cup of water was thrown?
Sprinklers?
Rain?
Snake pee?
I’m just sayin…..
mommy.
NOOOOO WAY! I would freak out. Oh my goodness.
I. WOULD. DIE. If that was in my yard. DIE. I am scared to death of snakes!!!
This is THE REASON I hate when it starts to warm up here. I HATE snakes. Glad you are all safe and nobody got bit!
Oh boy! That IS scary! Esp. when in your backyard…I prefer seeing them in pet shops or zoos…
eeek! that picture literally gave me the goosebumps!
OK, I may have to rethink the whole “lets-move-to-AZ-honey”
Love snakes but not rattlers! Scary indeed! Lets hope he doesn’t come back with friends! Glad to hear everyone is ok.r
Now that Mr. Snake is gone, maybe I can find my pet hampster….O Bennie, Bennie where are you…Come home Bennie.
I haven’t seen any in my yard in Queen Creek yet, but I don’t want to either. I love your blog. You should check out mine. I just painted stripes like your hallway but on my bedroom wall. http://www.4sweetpeasinapod.blogspot.com
Eeek!
Oh my – a rattle snake! I’m with the first comment from Erica. I would definately take snow!
Nice!
There is NO WAY I would be around to take a picture! You’re wayyyyy more brave than I am!
