Fishing

This morning I took the kids fishing, all by myself. I'm pretty proud of myself! The Sugar Land Parks & Rec department hosted a fishing event at a local park. Supposedly they had put lots of fish in the lake to catch, but we only heard of 3 fish actually being caught. They supplied fishing poles and bait. When I had to string the worms on the hook, I was really wishing Andy was with us... We ran into some friends while we were there, friends from church and friends from school, so that was fun. Rachel was the most willing to fish. It was too boring for Audrey, so she mostly played on the playground. And Ian was pretty content in his stroller.

After fishing unsuccessfully for about 30 minutes we decided to go play some of the little carnival games they had. The kids enjoyed doing that and the little prizes they won. It was awfully warm, so I caved and bought icees for everyone, then they were really happy...

Although Ian was more concerned about the ice that got spilled on the bench:

After our attempt at fishing we are now enjoying a quiet afternoon at home. Andy's still working away and we're looking forward to having him all to ourselves tomorrow. Sunday is the favorite day around here!!!
