Fish stories, did the big one get away??

A week ago the Tacoma Sportman's Club had their 60th annual Kids Fishing Derby at Bradley Lake. All the grandkids had to go and all their parents and of course Grandpa. I think Kaylee and I were the only ones that didn't make it, just to early for us I guess. They all did quite well and got many fish. Grandpa loves helping them fish, he has so much patience. Me, I would just worry about them falling in!

Shaylyn caught the biggest one, she was pretty excited. She even held it while I got a picture.
Getting to the fun part, cleaning them. I think Austin wanted to help, At first.
Grandpa, doesn't seem to mind. It's a good thing because I'm not doing it!

The finished product, lots of nice fish. Some little ones and some pretty nice ones and then there is Shaylyn's big one.

Here she is holding her fish and the prize she won, a Hannah Montana fishing pole. Cierra won a prize too, I don't have a picture of her's.

Austin won also, a small, one burner camp stove.

Chance got a one burner camp stove also, a little bit bigger, looks like a nice one. I think he won it because there weren't too many in his age group so they gave them all something. Whatever it takes, it is still fun.

The fruit trees we planted are doing very well.

I wanted a picture with Austin so we can see how much they have grown over the years. I just forgot that Austin will be growing too.

This is a picture of a plant we have had for many years. We actually have two, that we planted at the same time, well, the other one is only about 10" tall. Not sure why one is huge and the other is so small.

As I was taking pictures I noticed all these blooms on it, never saw them in the past. I suppose I might have but just have forgotten, that happens a lot anymore.

Well, summer might finally be here now. We hope everyone has a great one and are able to do a lot of fun things. Maybe we'll be able to see some baseball and soccer games now, with not so many rain outs. I also want to thank all my family and friends for all of their support. We love you all!!
