New spot for fun

This is me fishing Luke out of the water. He doesn't need it, but it scares the shit out of me, so I pick him up and out anyway. He just sees something and goes for it



We found a damn reservoir that is really nice. The water is clear, there are swimming spots all over, fishing, camping, and lots of room for boat stuff. Grace loves fishing, and we will be doing a lot of it. Hopefully I can learn how really quick before she realizes that I don't know what Im doing. Jack likes it in spurts. He learned about not throwing stuff in the water on this trip. It's too hard for him to sit still for very long.

Im so proud of these kids. Jack and Grace are getting pretty good at swimming. Luke has almost no fear of the water. You have to watch him close. He likes to dive for rocks. It is so scary to look up for a second, look back down, and he is gone underwater looking for more.

Luke's like a koi, even the same color. He's fearless just like his big brother Jack. You are so funny about hoping to learn how to fish before anyone notices. Good luck. Can't be that hard, right? Looks like y'all are having lots of summer time fun.

Looking at this makes me look like the most boring mom ever. The word verification says "extrabla." That's me! You guys have so much fun. It would help if we had some swimmin' holes like that around here. Luke is hilarious. Are you growing gray hairs yet?

Luke the fish! At least you know how to fish him out of the water:)

How about the scaly ones? Are you pro yet? You know, ol' Chuck may have a few pointers.

Fishing is the best "hunting" type sport EVER! I love that last picture, Luke looks like he's trying to bite you! Lol! "Put me back in the water, Dad!"
