Grace's 1st fish...

After spending the day on the water, Gracie & Daddy got out great big fat night crawlers & tried fishing. Their first go at it didn't go so well, but they were trying to fish off the dock... then once we were back at the cottage the girls spent some time playing around when we noticed three fishermen at the end of our dock (on their boat) reeling them in one after another! Grace went running down wanting to catch fish too! Daddy & Grace tried for a while, but no fish. Eva was getting fussy, over tired w/ no nap so we decided to put fishing on hold & take Eva for a driving -- hoping it would put her to sleep.

Daddy left Grace's fishing pole laying on the dock w/ the line in the water... when we got back Grace went down to the dock to see if she'd caught anything (she was dying to catch something so she could give it to Mommy to eat! Not that I ate any of her fish.) When we pulled her line in & yes, her pole had moved some - we were lucky it wasn't gone! B/c the fish she caught was HUGE!!! She caught a catfish & he was at least 12 inches! Go GRACE!!!!
