Gone Fishing!

Well, we survived our first fishing trip without any catasrophes. We had jeremy's cousin's daughter here. She is 9 or 10. So, she went with us. We decided at the last minute that we would leave Sebastian with my brother, so that we could concentrate of Kenneh fishing without fear of that monster running off, falling into water, etc. Bc, Lord knows, he doesn't stay put! So, we loaded up and got a late start. But, we arrived, found a nice spot to set up and casted the line a few times. Makenneh wasn't so interested in fishing afterall. She really didn't care one way or the other. OF course, it was windy as heck, so that didn't help. You would know sooner cast out and your bobber was back to shore, from the wind/current. But, we still had a nice time. We had a picnic, relaxed on the lounge chairs we brought, the girls played in the water a bit (just waded in) and they caught bugs, glorious bugs. OF course, Makenneh would be catching bugs. You should have seen her when we opened the container of night crawlers. Her eyes lit up like a kid in a candy store. She wanted to hold them. She didn't think the fish should eat them! Anyway, after our picnic lunch and some relaxion, we decided to pack up and go to the dam, which is nearby. I was all for it, as that was where Jeremy and I had our first kiss! So, we took them there and as we are walking around looking, Makenneh says, "It's so awesome!" It was so cute to hear her say that! She was afraid to walk out over the dam though. It's metal grate and she could see the water below. She just didn't think that was safe...carry me dad! So, he had to lug her across. Then, when we got back to the cement...she wanted to go back again, this time she would walk. So, we did it again. She says after a few steps. Im afraid. Im brave. LOL. It was beautiful! What's not to love about strong flowing water??!!! The sound is magnificent. I took some pics and will post some here and then again on a seperate post, just bc i have so many to share.

Anyway, we plan to go back again..probably next weekend ( my job permitting). Jeremy wants to camp out for the weekend. He thinks he could live there! Which, i could too, almost!
