A Schutt Day Off

It has been quite a while since we have had a day off, at home, with nothing scheduled on the calendar.  The weather was nice and the kids have been itching to get out fishing so we seized the opportunity and headed out to camp with our fishing poles.  We started off our time with digging for some worms (which I failed to get a picture of).  Believe it or not but our girly girl was the one to get right in there and grabs the worms.  Jack on the other hand warmed up to the idea after a while but it was not what he was thinking a fun time would be! 

Then we headed down to the water front and loaded the kids in the boat.  Low and behold after the first cast Jesse and Lauren caught a fish.  Jack and I weren’t too far behind but it did take us a few more casts than one!  We enjoyed the evening together and caught a handful of sunfish and blue gills.  Now that the day is gone the kids have been talking about when we get to go fishing again.  We are so grateful for these moments that we can share with our kids and grateful also for a camera to help us remember those precious times.  Here are a few pictures of our adventure!

The first catch of the day.  Lauren was SO excited.

Though his face doesn’t show it here he was excited to get a fish also!

My dear sweet Avie.  What a joy she is to have around.  Give her a few years and she’ll have a pole in her hand too!
