leaping lizards...or grasshoppers!

Isn't this the cutest grasshopper you've ever seen?  My kids went to a spider themed birthday party last weekend and I regretted not taking my camera.  The spider cake was incredible.  With the spider cake came some flies and grasshoppers.  The day after the party the hostess came over and delivered two grasshoppers for my kids to enjoy which they certainly did.  That's what I call a Hostess with the Mostess.
