The Saturday before Memorial Day we took the family on a fishing trip - or rather we tried to. The places we tried to reach were still blocked by snow - though my dear husband went over and through some of the drifts as long as he thought he could. That was a little nerve wracking for Peter and me, but the rest of the kids just giggled away.
Anyway, I got a few pictures - everyone except Gabi - fishing. And some pictures of the fun in the snow that was there. One of the neat things about being here is that it can be wonderfully warm and there can be snow to play in - okay, not right in our yard, but not too far away either!
This fishing trip was also Peter's very first time fishing. He was so excited - so eager! He wasn't first, and was so patient. But the fishing was terrible in the that place and then we couldn't get to the other places we were trying to. We did stop by a river and Bob took Peter especially for the experience - it would never have done to go home without Peter at least dropping a hook in the water! He was so very happy!
Memorial Day was our annual planting day. I took just a couple of pictures and spent the day doing laundry and trying to stay off my feet. I felt tired and weak that day, so it was best that way. The garden is a "communal" one with Bob's folks over in their yard. Bob loves to garden, so does his mother. The kids do to. It's nice to be able to share the space and the food.
