Fishing

This weekend was free fishing weekend here in Colorado and we took the boys. They gave away free fishing poles at Quail lake so of course we had to go and get some for the kiddos. Vance was very impatient about wanting to catch a fish but of course it wouldn't happen as quickly as he wanted. Merek had to be put in the play pen to keep from eating the sand and rocks. He got a good mouthful before we could put him in. Kael fished for about a minute before he walked straight into the lake so we took off his shoes and let him play. He had a blast walking up and down the beach hitting his pole on the water. I was ready to give up and move to a different spot when I started to reel in my line and a fish pulled against it. I don't know how long he was on my line before I pulled him in but it was our only catch of the day. We tried to get Vance to reel him in but he wouldn't have anything to do with it. Silly kid. It was a pretty good size fish and it just made out trip. We had a great day fishing and are excited to do it again.

Vance is all ready to go. Bring on the fish!
