One of my catches-this is a jack fish!We left town on Friday for the holiday weekend at the Island House. Thanks to Ryan's Aunt and Uncle, they are gracious to allow us to use their piece of paradise. This was a special trip for us because our girls got to spend time with cousins Peyton, Brady and Rylee. And of course, Aunt Angie and Uncle Jon. Grandma Becky also joined us and was a great help! We have never been to the beach house with everyone so it was a nice treat to get everyone together.
We started out Friday by getting their around 6:30. We enjoyed setting up and getting the pool ready for the kidos on the back porch. We settled down early getting ready for a full day at the beach. On Saturday, we headed down to the beach after breakfast and coffee, of course. The beach was a little rough but fun to splash in. My girls love the beach and enjoy it so much. It was nice to see all the cousins playing together. Madison absolutely loves her cousins. She thinks she is their second Mama. She will be a good babysitter one day. Later after lunch, we went on our first fishing expedition with the kids. They had a ball catching pin fish after pin fish. They thought they were catching the biggest fish of all. It was fun seeing them so excited fishing. We ended the second night with a spaghetti dinner. After dinner, Jon introduced my kids to the Wii which was a blast. Peyton and Maci squared off with a round of boxing. They both have the same, "I want to win everytime the play" so it was funny. Then, we played bowling and a few other games.
On Sunday, we ventured down to the beach for another day sunning and making sand castles. We had awesome weather the whole trip. While the kidos were napping, Ryan, Madison and I went fishing. I am really starting to like fishing. Never thought I would but it really is a nice relaxing family sport. I caught 3 jack fish and one snapper. Madison caught 2 jack fish and a snapper. Poor Ryan, had to help us out such much he didn't get to fish much. I finally am making a lot of progress in fishing because now I will bait my hook. We then grilled out for the evening and played more Wii and watched a movie. The last day came and the girls were bummed out we were leaving. We went to the beach for a little and then had lunch and began to pack and come back home to reality.
