Fishin' with Papa

Last week Papa come to visit us and stayed for 5 days and we had a very nice time! We had a "Play-doh Creations" afternoon, when we made items out of Play-doh and Keegan took 1st place with his snowman. Papa gave him .50 cents for his great accomplishment and that sure put a smile on his face! Of course the kids plum wore him out on a couple of the days as they played outside or played games all day long, ugh! The highlight of his visit though this time was...an afternoon of fishing at the lagoons. Keegan always wants to go fishing, but for some reason Daddy rarely takes him, so Papa thought that was a great idea. Daddy took the afternoon off and we all loaded up and spent several hours fishing. I didn't fish any but I enjoyed the beautiful sunshine and read my book : ) Talon isn't a fisher man, so he only fished the last 1/2 hour or so, so that is why I have no pictures of him. We had a very enjoyable time with Papa and look forward to him coming back again soon.

This was Kallee's first time fishing and she loved it!

She sure loved reelin' 'em in!

My poor daughter looks like a little, rag-a-muffin : )

Kallee & Keegan "petting" their fish, YUCK!

My kids are so, totally weird...they come running in the house with fish heads saying
"I'm gonna eat you" : )
