Fishing

We took the kids fishing at Sharon Woods. There is a 14 acre pond and only children are allowed to fish it. It was a beautiful morning.

Gavin's wearing his lucky fishing hat!

Tysen was a very good boy. He watched us fish for awhile and then took a snooze.

Alexa was fascinated by the earthworms!

We all had a great time. Gavin caught his first fish! I captured it on the video below. He was very proud of himself. Alexa had several bites, but didn't actually reel one in. She was a little disappointed and she kept saying, "I'm not very good at fishing..." but as seen in the video, she was very excited when she caught some weeds! Grandpa McGrew did a great job of teaching the kids how to use their new fishing poles. The night before our fishing adventure, he helped them practice casting from our front porch for at least an hour.
