This has to be the best photo to start our first attempt at a BLOG! Bethany's first ever fish that she has caught! Lilly was so determined to let it go that she was the one to take the hook out and throw it back in the water. By the end of the weekend Beth had caught 6 fish and Lilly had caught 2. Both girls were so excited and can't wait to go fishing again. I guess this is the new hobby for the summer.
Special thanks to Scott Martin for loaning us the fishing poles just to see if it would be a fun thing to do and worth the investment to get the gear.
Guess we know now what is on the list for upcoming birthdays!
We also took along our dog Isabelle who absolutely loved the outdoors. Although, I'm not sure which aroma was least desirable...the fish or her after the rain!
The sound of the rain at night out camping sure is better than any sleeping pill. Of course, crickets, snoring, and pure exhaustion from all that fresh air helps, too!

We would love to go camping together! Baby Gaby needs to go camping! How far away is the camping place by Branson MO? When can you go? How long can you go for?
We use worms or minows. Papa puts them on. Lilly or someone takes the fish off the hook if she can't get it off to throw it back. I catch the most fish. Does that answer all you want to know? Oh, ya...lots of fish have eated the worms and the hook, too!
