Out at my parents house on the lake -- they had a Fishing Derby. It was for kids - they had a bunch of booths with activities for the kids to do, then we could get in line (a very long line) to do some fishing. They stocked the lake with 2,000 fish for the kids. So everyone was sure to catch something. Each kid could catch 2 each. Both the girls caught 2 and Addie even caught a tagged fish which was a prize fish. Very exciting. It was a very fun morning. Maci was in line ahead of us with Keith and Alicia and so the girls got to see her catch it and then get it "cleaned". After that Addie didn't want to fish anymore. She didn't want to have her fishes head cut off. So we told her when they cleaned hers - we'd leave the head on -- and they did. So we got some free fish and entertainment. AND we even cooked them up and ate them. (well me and the girls each had a "thank you bite" -- thank you for dying for us and giving us free entertainment. :) )
