Vacation Part 2

After a day at home after our trip to Dubois, we headed to Guernsey/Hartville to visit our parents, which are Chloe and Brooklyn's GREAT grandparents, of course. (GREAT in many, many ways, that is!) Brooklyn loves to fish with his great grandpa. Chloe got to fish for the first time with them as well (last year she went, but just kinda hung out for a while). They had a blast.

They were surprsingly patient and enjoyed the area as well as the fishing. We could see the fish jumping in the lake as we watched. There were campers and other fisher"people" around to see as well. Chloe got to help reel in Great Grandpa's big carp....
and it didn't even scare her. She didn't mind touching worms either...but drew the line at the slimy moss that was on the line a couple times! (I can't say I blame her, although I bucked up and took it off for her!

Brooklyn caught two carp! (We didn't keep any carp, but it was fun for them to catch them...) and was proud because he "outfished" Great Grandpa...although Great Grandpa also really caught two because he also caught a "shad", which is a small fish about the size of a big minnow! (He must have snagged it reeling in..but it was so funny to see that tiny little fish on his line. :o) )

Awww...contentment...they had a lot of fun fishing. We had a full heart just being there with them. Who can resist these faces?
