Sure, it's all fun, games, bunnies, and eggs--until a large snake peeks out of your toilet.

Jay Tipton and his family had their Easter celebration rudely interrupted by a guest that they say they most certainly didn't invite.

The Tipton family had gathered at a rented hall in Quincy this past Sunday for an Easter party, only to be informed that there was a "disturbance" in the men's bathroom.
