what a weekend

...we had with the boys' grandparents! We went shopping, went to the zoo, went out to eat, went fishing, caught a can...

A can?!? Yes, a can. Pop wanted to take the boys fishing and he bought them poles, worms, the whole enchilada. After fishing at a lake (that is about 10 min away from our house) for an hour, Pop finally got a bite. We were so excited we all ran over to see. He let Rhett and Noah help reel it in and as you can see in the pictures, our big bite was a rusted, mucky can. Rhett held up our only catch for the day so we could take pictures. It was hilarious!


The lake was beautiful, the weather was nice and although I am not generally a nature person, I had a great time just relaxing, catching up on my scrapbook magazines, enjoying the peaceful surroundings and watching the boys have fun.


And I think Seth may become a fisherman. He didn't want to stop!

Noah didn't fish for long. Actually, he fished just long enough for me to take this picture. But he had a great time playing in the murky lake water.

So we had a great Labor Day weekend. It went by too fast and today we are all exhausted, but it was a lot of fun.

What about your weekend? What did you do? Tell me about it!

Glad you had fun with the in-laws. A day at the lake is always fun!

We were going to be lazy and clean house. Well, we were lazy some, but ended up having dinner with different friends Fri, Sat, Sun and Mon. Its nice to be loved! We also got our garage cleaned out, reorganized, shelves hung, bike rike installed... yesterday. It rained all day, so we had the garage door open and it was beautiful!

Ha! Mom, that reminds me of the time you and Dad spent all Thanksgiving drinking wine in Ruidoso!

Chris and I went to a movie (Pirates of the Caribbean -- fun!). I vacuumed half of the house. Maybe next weekend I'll vacuum the other house!

Aimee, glad you had more fun fishing than you thought you would!
