We were all really excited for the adventure and the kids were especially excited for fishing!
Of course in less than 5 minutes of being there Miss Novalee had to fall down on a rock and sported this bump the rest of the time.
Before we even left to go camping Jared asked that if he found a frog that he would be able to keep it. We agreed that IF he found one he could keep it during the camping trip but he would need to return it before we headed home. And sure enough he found one the first day there.
He is kind of a cute little frog.
Grandma Christine bought the biggest marshmallows we had ever seen and they were SO GOOD too!
Here's Novalee showing everyone how it is done. She was kind of the Smores supervisor, making sure that we did them every night.
YUMMY!
Jared and Grandpa Scott took the boat out by themselves the first night, "To bring the boat over to our campsite," which really means "We're going fishing and will be back when it gets dark."
Sure enough...
Other great fishing moments:
Asking the kids if they wanted a worm on their hook and tossing them a tub of "night crawler" gummy worms.
I'm not sure Jared knew I was kidding. :)
The first catch of the day. Can I just say I totally forgot to look in a mirror that day. My hair's pretty out of control. :)
Novie's fish.

Happy Moments by the water...
Perhaps the reason the motor to our boat stopped working...
Saying goodbye is hard. Jared was very brave and after wiping away some tears gave a sweet goodbye to his dear froggie friend.
On the last day Jared caught the most fish. This picture was taken right after he declared he was "The Master Fisherman!" You can tell he's feeling good.
And to end the trip Novalee caught one more too!
It was such a fun weekend, it would have been great to stay a couple days longer. :)
