gone fishin'

After hearing from friends that the neighborhood lake was swarming with fish ready to bite, we decided to go for it and take Grace fishing. After all, I was told the longest wait would be picking out which cricket to hook! Well we followed all the directions... we bought a cute pink Barbie fishing pole, hooks, and plenty of crickets... but no luck! We didn't catch a single fish! I asked the security guard that was hanging out at the clubhouse what the deal was. He said it was the weather and that we should try again when a front was moving in or at night. We haven't been back to try again, but we will be soon.

Even with our lack of fishing skills, we had a great time! Grace was slightly disappointed. She did her best...

"Here big fish, come on big fish, get a cricket!"

... but no such luck. We did take lots of pictures... you even get a peek at me 5 months pregnant!
