Warning!

All are welcome to come swimming and/or jump on the trampoline! But if you misbehave in the pool, look out....Coach Montes will make you go to the hill and give him 20.

Just ask Jacob, Alex, Blake & Stephen.

Gone Fishin'

Well....we are making an attempt to try different things over the course of this summer. I guess you would say, we will be doing the "Staycation" thing. I would like to say its to save money, but our first venture ended up on the pricey side. Alex has wanted to fish I'd say for the past 3 years (Since Titi Chrissy & Uncle Mark bought him his first fishing pole). Ongoing projects and the kitchen remodel seemed to put it on the back burner. Needless to say, we made it to Big Brown Lake up toward the Poconos, with the new fishing pole and some old faithfuls from Pappy Smith in hand. After trying to figure out the best place to venture for our first fishing expedition, we thought this to be the best option. It's actually a fish hatchery, so you are bound to catch something. They had a great time, and fishing has now become something they would like to do more of. Bushkill Creek here we come. (It's FREE)

This was one of those days where you realize, no matter how long you know someone...you never know everything about them. I know nothing when it comes to fishing, except I'm great at putting worms on the hook. But Carlos on the other hand seemed to know everything there was to know about fishing. (Are you sure you weren't a Boy Scout Carlos?) What's Up With That!!! I did feel bad for him, 4 boys all new to fishing, made for a crazy start. We were all ready to leave, but waited for Carlos to get a bite. : )

It was a fun day and the weather turned out to be beautiful.

Happy Fishing! - e
