We packed the kids' fishing poles and tackle boxes, so they were anxious to get down to the pond.
We tried conventional fishing for a while.
Grandma even helped Isaac work on his cast.
But when that wasn't working, we were true to our redneck selves and stripped down to our skivvies to get down to business.
Daisy gave it a shot.
Levi put forth a valiant effort.
And dad was the victor! He caught a fish with his bare hands!
...and, once again, was certified The Coolest Dad Ever.
Back at camp we ate lots of good grub.
And stayed hard at work
And Daisy took us on some great four-wheeler rides...
...to beautiful places like this.
My parents had this brilliant idea to take logs from their property, mill them down into lumber, and use it to construct a tree house for the children. So...the men spent their 'vacation' working their guts out hauling and milling logs.
The women and children designated themselves as the management and supervisory crews...and we did a good job at it.
We made a lot of progress over the course of the weekend!
And a few days after we finished our camping trip we got to see Grandma again when we celebrated her birthday.

I loved reading all of your past posts. Can I just say how proud I am of you for running a freaking marathon....that is so awesome! And Levi is such a little stud in his T-ball get up! I also love the kids jumping into the pond while camping...there is nothin better!!!
I'm surprised Dad didn't prevent the "fishing" via redneck-style. He would've put the kibosh on it when we were kids. Glad to see you had so much fun, and wish I could've had some of that CAKE for Mama's birthday! Love you guys so much :)
fun fun fun! Love all of the fishing pictures!
