Yesterday we drove up to see Uncle Lynn because Carly has been asking to go fishing in the lake behind his house! It was a beautiful evening. =)
Carly fished for two and a half hours. I spent most of that time standing at the bottom of this hill catching Bree as she ran down. She was determined to try and get to the water, and while she was disappointed that she didn't actually get IN, she had a great time running/rolling/falling down the hill a thousand times. =)
This is funny. They're the same size!
Carly and Uncle Lynn getting ready to find a perfect spot!
Bree and I also explored the porch. We are big fans of the rocking chairs.
Baiting the hooks! They had worms and a box of crickets. Carly was worried that putting the worms on the hook would hurt them, but she never asked about the crickets...even though the hook goes right through their HEADS. So gross. One of the many, many reasons you will never find me out in a boat fishing all day long. Of course I didn't tell Carly any of that....we just said that worms and crickets are fish food. We (Uncle Lynn) tossed a couple of crickets in the water - did you know crickets can swim? - and we got to watch a fish jump up and eat it. Carly was almost sad but we said, "Fish food!" and it was funny. =)
The first fish! Both girls touched it before it got thrown back.
Fish 2 of 6! This one she did ALL by herself!!!
Love love love

OMG- I love each and every one of these photos for a different reason. Sweet Carly and yelling "Fish Food" she is just too cute! :) I love her and miss her so much more when I can see her or hear her in my head. I can't believe our babies are going to be 5. OMG.
i love how proud Carly is in the last couple picture...so darn CUTE!!! :) and i love that you have been around family for the last few years and gotten to do so many fun things with them! if Carly ever needs a borrowed Pops to go fishing with...we can take her to my dad...they can fish right by my parents house...sooo fun! :)
