Fishing Day

  What a great way to start a weekend. My husband (who never likes to plan anything) decided to plan a fishing trip with all the kiddo's today. So we got up went to cracker barrel and ate breakfast at lunch time as the service was soooooooo slow! it took an hour for them to seat us and seemed like forever before we go t our food. When done we headed on our way to the new fishing spot he had been told about. We usually have a hard time doing things like fishing in the summer due to having a red headed kid and three very fair skinned kids. Only one child got blessed with olive skin Raidyn (lucky little sh*t...). This new spot was perfect for us as it had a covered dock :)

Heath, Piryn Éiria 

 The locust and spider web were both Piryn finds :) he is so observant!!

 I just love how Cyprus Knees look.

Piryn

   Alligator Gar

  So we told all the kids that we were not there to really catch anything as we just wanted to be out doors, enjoy the day and teach Kyllian and Piryn how to reel in as they had never done it before. low and behold the youngest child caught himself an Alligator Gar all by himself. Lets just say we had a very chuffed three year old for the rest of the day :)

   This sucker was so heavy that it broke the line before we could get it in to take the hook out :(

  So to finish off our beautiful fun day we left and drove home.... yeah right... get it right we drove through a torrential thunderstorm where I thought I was gonna shit my pants (which I was not wearing any so it would have been super messy) lightening strikes all along the side of the interstate which had me grabbing the OH SH*T handle. We get off at our exit to be confronted with the roads all flooded and no way to get our stupid minivan through. Man how I miss my expedition (hahahaha had to have a little dig at the husband!)

 

This is my photo of the day!!! This tractor was in the middle of the interstate.
