Gone Fishin'!

Let me start by apologising to a friend who has requested a picture of my head. Unfortunately I have yet to master self photography with my 'Rebel'. It's a little awkward to hold while trying to aim and get a decent shot of how loud I can be....without opening my mouth. I have however perfected the blurry freckle, an out of place eyebrow hair and lets not forget the left nostril. When my husband reaches for the camera first ;) I'll be sure to post it... which will probably be when I'm on my hands and knees...cleaning tile joints in prep for grouting. :D It's coming though, I promise!

Now off to the topic of the day....fIsHiN'! We went to the same place as we did on our hike in April. Yup, the kids got their first fishing lesson form Daddy. Probably Bear's last one for some time too. He didn't quite grasp the concept of leaving the line in the water not the pole. Kalee was a great whisperer...because you know how fish aren't into holding a conversation about Hannah Montana. Overall, I was expecting to return with only 2 of 4 poles we left with, but we returned with all 4...and Max didn't even get that 200 lb knuckle catch that involved visiting ER like he did when we lived in RI. Good day if you ask me!


These Canadian Night crawlers only understood French...
I think I need another one of these on my hook...

Want one too Sister?

Daddy and his boy fishin'...

Yeah Dad that's gross...I'll wait while you put the worm on the hook.

Daddy telling her to watch her bobbin, I mean bobber, sewing lessons next?

I promise, the fish wasn't that big...in fact the only thing caught that day was a piece of wet salad.


Dad? Will they eat my hook?

Me messing around with my camera.

Was that a jumping fish? How do fish jump Dad? They don't have legs!
Our park escorts...

We paid them Wheat Thins...

I'm listening to the kids watch The Code Word Caper from Leap Frog...
K: Bear be quiet.
B: blah-boh-bo-ah-hah
K: Bear pleeeease be quiet!
B: Hey I see "A" (pointing to the TV) Mama, Mama, look I see "A". AAAaaaAAA (singing the sound)
K: Bear! Quiet! Do you want me to put tape on your mouth?

That's great!!! The only time I remember saying that was to my brother! Siblings, I tell ya! Time to go talk this one out with them...
