Ice Fishing













This weekend we decided to take a trip to my brother John's house in Cascade. Adam hadn't been ice fishing all season so i set up a fishing trip. Yes the lake still have 19" of ice on them. CRAZY!! The snow was beautiful on the drive up. As cars drove underneath the big pine trees the snow would fall out of the trees onto the next car. The boys thought that was great. :)

It was awesome in Cascade. It had snowed about 1 foot the day before we arrived so the snow was perfect. It was also very sunny which make for perfect ice fishing. Adam, John and I took 8 kids out fishing with us. Yes we are nuts. But the kids had a blast. John took his snow mobile and gave rides and pulled people on the sleds. Thank goodness for crazy uncle John to break up the monotony of fishing. :)

Adam caught the first fish of the day and I caught the second. (Mine was bigger! Hee Hee) We had lot of nibbles but we only caught the two fish. So thank goodness i packed a lot of treats and hot cocoa. It kept the kids going. All in all we had a really fun weekend that i think the boys will remember.

YEAH! I love that you posted these pictures -they are sooo cute! :) So many funny thoughts with all the little boys -It really makes me wonder what it's going to be like when they are older (teenagers).
