First Fish, Last Fish?

After our week long vacation at Deep Creek Lake, work had piled up for Dan. So I decided to take the boys to Lake Anna the next weekend so Dan could catch up on some things. As usual, Nathan enjoyed some more time in the kayak and on the jet ski and big boat.

Andrew also enjoyed the usual pleasures of lounging at the lake house, such as stuffing his face with watermelon and whatever else he could get his hands on.
But this weekend, we did try something new. My cousin, Nekije and her boyfriend, Billy were visiting from NJ. In the middle of the afternoon, Billy wanted to try fishing, so my Dad brought down the fishing rods and they used bread for bait. Unbelievably, the fish were biting and before we knew it, Billy had caught 3 fish.

Here's Nathan, leisurely licking his lollipop and waiting patiently for the fish to bite.

It wasn't too long before Nathan had caught his first fish, a good size catfish. It was not one of his favorite moments at the lake. He still enjoys casting his rod, but it must not have any bread on it! After dinner, we enjoyed a ride on the boat and watched the sun set. It was a beautiful summer weekend.
