Gone Fishin'

Okay, so Madelyn has really taking a liking for fishing lately. I think a lot has to do with the fact that its something special that she gets to do with her daddy. In the evenings, Jeremy has been fishing from the bridge beside our house and has actually been catching quite a few. Usually during these outings, I take the opportunity to catch up on some things that I have been meaning to do-perhaps this blog-or even just relax by watching some very intellectually stimulating show I'm sure like "So You Think You Can Dance." However, the other night after my almost three year old rang our doorbell continuously while frantically asking me to grab my camera I just had to see what all the hype was about. So I ran out of the house with my sweat shorts on and my 2 sizes too small t-shirt, camera in hand running through our front yard-all the while with no shoes on. My little Madelyn was so excited for me to see what her daddy had just reeled in from the creek. Jeremy too was quite proud of the fish he had been catching and told me to get the camera ready because Madelyn loved "petting" these "bluegill". So I'm thinking..."wow, bluegill, that sounds like a pretty nice size fish, right? A real fish and my baby girl is not intimidated or the least bit afraid to touch this thing...I am so proud of my little courageous Maddy." So as Jeremy pulls this bobbing creature from the creek and I have my camera ready to photograph this large mouth bass (of course is what I'm picturing in my head) I started snapping away...hahaha

Very Cute - I loved the pictures you sent mom from the beach - the one's of Maddy on the beach in her black flowered outfit were so beautiful. Wendy was jealous because she said she didn't get any good ones of Bradley because he won't look into the camera - she was like Maddy is always looking into the camera, and they are all so great. Sorry things didn't work out that we could see you all at the beach - I know how hectic it can be when you go with a large group of people - family or not - everyone has the few things they really want to do and to try and fit all those in so everyone is happy is sometimes hard. We need to get the kids together - Bradley was looking at the picutres with me and he was like I want to see the ones of Maddy again. Hope you are feeling good. Talk to you soon.
