Fishing

Chris and the girls came to Kathy's house to pick me up after camping. Mandy's kids and husband met her there, too, and the kids got to go fishing in the pond! They had a blast! Hayden caught the first 2 fishes! Then Ellie caught the next BIG fish! Rebecca caught the next fish and was able to reel it in all by herself! Olivia caught a BIG fish like Ellie. Isabella was really interested in the fish. She couldn't quite understand what it was at the end of the fishing poles! In this picture to the left, she kept staring at the fish, and then she got close enough to touch it and it started flapping all over, so Isabella backed up a little. All the fish were released back into the pond after they were caught. Then the kids found some clam shells on the ground and they wanted to open them because they thought that they had pearls in them!

This is the clam that Rebecca thinks has a GIANT pearl in it, she says she can hear it inside!

We'll have to do the fishing thing again. My kids had so much fun hanging out with your girls, and the guys did seem to talk a little more this time!
