Labor Day 2016

The end of summer is here. The boys are all back school. Fall sports are in full gear. And we spent the last weekend of the season at the lake.

On Saturday, we went to a friend's lake place and on Sunday, to grandma's lake.

One of the highlights of the weekend had to be fishing. Here, you can see the boys with one of their prizes.

Left to Right:  Jace, Ace, Jenner, Chay

Chay's good friend Ace dropped the line in the water right first. Withing 15 seconds, the bobber was moving and he had caught a fish. That's not a fish tale nor an exaggeration. Within 15 seconds! So I thought this was awesome luck. Then it was Chay's turn. Again, within 15 seconds, Chay was reeling in his catch. And this repeated over and over again with each boy having multiple turns. The longest anyone waited was 30 second. Jenner's first cast went off to the side and it was reeled in right away to re-cast. By the time the line was back up on the dock, there was a fish on it. In the picture above, you can see Jace holding a fish that Jenner caught.

This was the first time our boys went fishing. I made sure to tell them that when they go fishing again, do not expect the fish to be "jumping in the boat" like this ever again.
