First Fish

During our trip to Nana's house last month, Alex spent lots of his free time constructing fishing rods. His goal was to try to catch some fish in the koi pond out back.  Needless to say, this was a losing proposition.  So, when we got home, with urging from his Nan and Nana, he convinced Daddy to take him down to the creek by our house to fish.  This event happened less than 24 hours after we returned home...there would be no delaying!!!

I was gone taking Anna somewhere and missed the first fish he caught, so I hurried down to the creek when I got home.  Below are the pictures and video I captured while in attendance.  I am pretty sure Alex would have stayed til dark, if we would have let him.  Fishing is fun...when the fish are biting!!

Well hello Mom...
Telling me how big the fish he caught was.

Digging.

Found one.


Casting again.

Waiting...

More waiting...


Sweet boy!

Daddy is a great teacher!

Best dudes around.

Walking home...he was full of energy and excitement. :)

 Second fish...caught on video this time!
