We started off our day bright and early with 7am mass then home for breakfast.
Yesterday, Daniel had mentioned something about taking the boys fishing but we never got around to it. While we were walking home from church we were talking about it and thought it might be fun to do this morning. The boys were excited and couldn't wait to go. Zach was so excited he didn't eat his breakfast (not that that is really any different than normal though!).
Both boys caught 2 fish and I caught one (with Jacob's fishing pole after he decided he was done). Daniel had a hand in all of them--he baited the hooks every time (and the fish kept nibbling our worms off before we could hook them so it happened A LOT!) and also had to take the fish off the hooks!
Zach was the first to catch one today. Here he is with his first fish:
Jakey caught the second one...
Then Jake caught another one...
Then Zach...
Jacob was done fishing and was busy telling us he wanted to go home. It was getting warm out and he was done!
I finally caught one! Here I am posing as close as I wanted to be to my fish.
Daniel thought the boys should pose with me too. Now I have all of 3 pictures with both of my children from various things we've done...although this is the first that'll prove I was actually fishing with them.
We packed up all our fishing gear and found some food in the car for the ducks at the pond...cheez its! The boys had a blast watching the ducks fight for the food! We named one of them "the Ringo duck" because he reminded us way too much of our dog Ringo. He was definitely the pig of the group!
What better way to end a 95 degree day than to have a little fire pit and roast hot dogs and toast marshmallows? Yep, we're that nuts.
