What A Day!

We a had a fun filled Father's Day around here. After two anxious little girls woke up their daddy and gave him their card and gift, we headed out to take Chris to a brunch before church.


Daddy and his two favorite girls.


The girls relaxing outside of Christopher's, where we took daddy for brunch.
After church the girls kept asking daddy to take them fishing on the pier. Katie has been wanting to fish since we moved here. Waiting patiently for a fish to bite.

Our other little cutie waiting for a bite. They both really surprised me on how well they just sat and fished. I was for sure they would get bored after about 10 mins.


Daddy was the first one to get a bite. He got a little fish. Checking it out.

Katie was so frustrated that she hadn't caught one fish. Both Chris and I caught a little fish but nothing for her. Chris decided to switch to the other side of the pier and help her try and catch something before we left. No more than 5 mins on the other side Katie had a bite. Not just a little bite.....she caught a baby shark.


Reeling in the shark....Oh my goodness she was so excited and she was reeling hard to get this little guy up. He may be small but he put up a good fight. He was about 2 feet in length.

The girls holding the big catch of the day.


A guy beside us helped us get him off the line and then he held the mouth closed so the girls could hold it. Doesn't she look proud hold her very first catch every!!!


Bree wanted to hold it too....she was not scared at all. She wanted to hold it all by herself but he was to wiggly to let her do that.

Katie wanted to keep it and bring it home. We had to explain that he wouldn't be a baby shark for long and plus we don't have a saltwater tank. So we had to let the little guy go and find his mamma. Katie was beyond thrilled that she caught not only a fish but a shark. She kept bragging that her fish was bigger than the ones Chris and I caught. She is not competitive at all. :)
