Fishing Success!



On Friday, I took the kids to a park. Their is a pond with fish/ducks and Luke usually takes a net and tries to catch a fish. This guy showed up with his kids and started fishing. Luke was interested immediately. He is always asking for a fishing pole. Anyway, the guy was so nice. He asked Luke if he wanted a turn so Luke joined the family and started fishing. About 10 minutes later, he caught a fish. He was so excited he flung it out of the water, and just about slimed me with the fish, but instead the poor fish bounced off some rocks before I stopped Luke from swinging the pole. I wish I would have had my camera, because he had the biggest smile on his face. When we got home, he drew a picture so we could remember. Now, he is really bugging us for a fishing pole. Oh, and Eric was happy for Luke, but kind of sad that some other dad took him fishing first.

We love to go fishing in the summer. Get some poles and we will go. The pond by the gold course here is a good one for kids. Also Salem pond. I could go on and on..... Way to go Luke!!!
