fishin'.


 (ellie showing you her cheerios, getting ready to go off-road strollerin',
our fearless leader, "the spot")


on saturday we tried out daddy's new pole at the park by our house. the day was beautiful and we left just as it was getting too hot and sweaty. ellie loved the water and loved the breeze and we had a grand old time, even though nothing was biting (we kinda went too late - my fault). 


(it is red and sandy, another view, 
the campsite in the woods, daddy hard at work)

we saw some cranes and some doggies going for a swim (sorry, judge, that we didn't bring you along). the weather is starting to get really nice - except for the afternoons, they're still pretty brutal. we're so glad to have real weekends to spend together doing fun things like this. daddy is pretty much obsessed with fishing right now, so i think we can expect to spend more time out by the water. (maybe someday he'll get a boat and we'll be on the water . . . hmmm.)

most days should be spent like this. agreed?

(all done and we're pooped.)
