Gone fishin'...
Today we took the girls fishing for the first time! It was also my first time fishing as well! The McHenry County Conservation District had a free fishing day with fishing rods for us to use and live bait (worms) and everything! They also supplied donuts, Gatorade, water, granola bars and little snacks for everyone! The girls were REALLY excited to go fishing! Loren has been asking for over a year to go fishing!! We found a little spot to cast out on and a fishin' we were! Loren got the hang of it really quickly! Kaylynn needed a little help to get the fishing rod to cast off. But she was really good at reeling it in (which she did over and over again)!! Loren even broke off a piece of worm and put it on her hook (not gonna lie...I wouldn't even do that)!! We never did catch any fish (our friend's little guy, Carter did though)! We fished for over an hour until it started thundering and raining and we got called in. The girls were kind of bummed we weren't able to catch any fish, but now that we know they like and have some patience for it, we'll do it again!
