Fish,Bugs, & Frogs Oh My!

To my husband's delight, we went fishing today. Like most men, Ben loves to fish and hunt. After the girls came along there wasn't alot of time for him to go. We went and let the girls pick out their poles. Princess for Riley and Dora for Piper. They all were so excited to go. So this afternoon we went out to a lake in Interlochen. Riley kept telling me she was going to catch the biggst Fish I ever saw and was going to eat it. Ewww. For those who don't know, I don't eat fish unless its fish sticks. Then she was going to put in the popperdaddy.What is a popperdaddy, you ask? It took me a minute to figure out what this was. She was saying it so fast. Its a pot for Daddy. Luckily we were doing catch and release today. I honestly didn't think we would catch anything. Within minutes of getting there hooks baited and lines cast they caught something. Aubrey even got in on the action! Ben caught live five fish, Riley caught at least four and Piper caught three. Me, you ask? I caught quite a bit. Sticks,seaweed and lilypads. I know, you don't need to tell me I'm a great fisherman or woman, whatever. It was really bad. I would hang on to one of the poles and as soon as I handed them over, someone would catch a fish. I just bring everyone else luck. I was really surprised Ben even caught anything. He spent more time baiting hooks and untangling lines from the tree stump ( Sorry honey, its been awhile since I last fished Great legs though! ;) )Towards the end the fish quit biting and Riley sat down on a log and said "I didn't order a fish" then Piper sat down next to her and said " I didn't order a fish either." They were too cute. They were soon distracted when Piper discovered a frog. Who needs to order a fish when you can chase a frog?! Here are the pictures from our adventure!
