2 weeks ago, we went on another camping weekend – this time we were on a lake and my parents brought their pontoon for all to enjoy. The weather was a bit warmer, but still not hot enough for me. We had a very relaxing & enjoyable weekend though.
The boys were pumped to go because we had taken them shopping the week before to pick out new fishing poles. Last year, they just “helped” us fish but this year they were going to attempt it themselves (or as much by themselves as almost-3 year olds can handle). Wyatt picked out a “Cars” pole & Colton picked out a “Spiderman” pole. I insisted they have different poles so that there is never any fighting over whose is whose.
We got out each day fishing & boating for a little while. The first day was slow but we seem to find some better spots after that. They each caught their first fish on their own pole & were super excited about that. Fishing didn’t keep their attention the whole time, but they stuck it out a lot longer than I had expected they would – definitely two future fishermen!!
We also enjoyed a pancake breakfast on Saturday morning, as the lake we were on was having a fishing contest that day & had the pancake breakfast as part of the fundraiser for lake improvement projects.
