Gone Fishing

All these years Kyle and I had no need for a fishing license. When you fish with kids, you spend all of your time getting them unstuck, baiting the hook and taking off fish. For the first time in my adult life I got a fishing license! I feel like such a grown up! Funny things about it is, TWO of my children had to get them too! Haha...

Being up first thing in the morning has it's advantages... We were able to secure the dock!

Such a pretty little cove to spend the day in...

There is Nick, fishing over there~ Guess he thought it would be better...

Aaron and his big catch of the day!

Abby running for all it's worth to let us know she caught a crawfish!

We played the funniest trick on Kyle. The only thing he caught all day actually happened while he was unloading the cooler from the truck. We had been here HOURS and while getting little bites, all he was doing was re-baiting the hook. When his bobber went under, Aaron hooked the fish... reeled him in and then cast it back out... fish and all. Here is kyle walking down the bank, loaded down with the cooler and everyone starts yelling "Quick! Get your pole! Did you see that? It's surely a whopper!"... So to his pole he went with the up most urgency!

Aaron couldn't keep from cracking up!

And here is Papa with his HUGE WHOPPER of a fish!

And Mama taking it off the hook!
