A fishin' we will go...

There is nothing quite as cute as the first time your kid catches a fish. We went to Tingly Beach today and overall it was a nice experience.

Mat got a kick out of all the different types of birds that were there. Mallards, white ducks and Canadian Geese. Everytime he saw one he'd yell DUCKIE!! He really loves duckies. =D

He had an extremely eventful day at the lake, about 10 minutes after we got there Mat thought he could walk on water. It didn't work out well and he got soaked. Of course we forgot to bring extra pants, shoes and socks. Poor kiddo was sitting there wrapped up in a few of Bella's extra blankies. He was still pretty happy and excited to be there though.

It took a while but he finally hooked his first fish. We helped him reel it in and as he looked at it for the first time he exclaimed in excitement "Ew!". Ha my thoughts exactly 

Over all it was a really great afternoon with my family. We only caught one fish but we're happy with our haul.  I can't wait until later this season when we go camping and fishing for a week at a time.  Maybe next time Ella will catch the "big one". Guess we'll see.
