Granddad took AEH and I fishing yesterday. My dad loves to fish and this may surprise some people but so do I. I have been going fishing with my dad since I was a little girl and could hold a fishing pole. I still try to go a couple of times a year with him. We decided it was time to let AEH go especially since we knew we wouldn't be out very long yesterday. Juju bought her a princess rod and a barbie life jacket, so she was ready. She loved it! We had a hard time getting her to hand over her princess rod when it was time to go. We fished until dark, for about 2 hours and she did great. I never dreamed she would have made it that long. If you know Audrey then you know how ACTIVE she is and how she doesn't stay at anything too long. She didn't like when we went fast in the boat but other than that she hung in there with us and is ready to go again.
My dad and I would always see who could catch the most. You know me and my competitive nature. I guess I know where I got that from. We'll I hate to say it (not really) but I won yesterday. The fish weren't biting good but I did manage to catch 3 white perch. My dad caught 2 and poor Audrey didn't catch any but she gave it her best shot. She had just as much fun playing with the minnows and catching lily pads.
We had a lot of fun and I hope we can find time to go back within the next couple of weeks while the weather is so nice.
AEH taking it seriously!
She caught a lily pad.
AEH took this. Don't I look lovely! Thank goodness for the sunglasses. ;)
