This weekend we have been having fun getting to know my cousin Davey's fiance. Her name is Kristi and she was a hit!! The kids all loved her! Saturday night we decided to take the kids over to a local pond to see if we could catch some fish. It seems that just this summer we have been doing more fishing then we ever have. (don't be fooled...what I mean is this is our third time going) This little pond is great because my kids are the type of fisherman that like immediate results....none of this sitting around and waiting stuff! This go around we decided to buy some worms for our bait. We (I mean Rick) got Chase's pole ready and before we could even count to ten he was realing it in! Rick was a little jealous Chase caught one so fast, so he had to give it a go....NOPE, they didn't bite his as fast.
Jordan was not going to have anything to do with touching the worms or the fish! She caught one right after another, but had no interest in getting anywhere near the fish. Her screams everytime a fish would even come close to her where so funny! We had to beg her to put the fish this close to her for the picture.
Cody had tried to catch a fish and for some reason they weren't biting his line. So the awesome dad Rick is - secretly caught a fish and said here Cody, why don't you hold this pole...we let it sit in the water for a minute, then Rick said Cody see if you have anything....Cody had the biggest smile on his face...HE CAUGHT A FISH! After that, they just kept on coming....he caught three in a row!
Rick's job was to put the bait on the hooks and take the fish off and throw them back in....we only had one fish that completley swallowed the hook...I'm not sure that one made it! I was very happy not having to touch anything and having the job of photographer!
Paige-my little animal lover was just as happy as could be playing with the worms...it wasn't until we were all ready to go that she decided we couldn't leave until she caught a fish...by this time they weren't biting like earlier, so we were all trying to bribe her with leaving. She stood firm and finally caught a fish!
We ended the night by heading to Frisco to the Double Dip! Okay - if you are a local and have never been there it is so yummy....my parents discovered it. And now we love it! Nothing is better than fishing, family, and frozen custard!!!
