Fishing Fun~A Marathon Giveaway Winner

Finally, last weekend was warm enough and still enough to take the boat out for her first run of the season.  We were all so excited to spend the day fishing on the lake.  Here are the girls on the way to the lake.  

Daddy has to rig up all the fishing poles.  Everyone is standing by.

The older ones actually got to fish virtually unsupervised.  They did pretty good managing their poles and hooks.  I did get hooked in the face though....I screamed loud enough that everyone just froze and thankfully it never got set.  No damage done.

"Baby" got a line and sinker.  She tried so hard to catch a fish.

But finally gave up to take a break instead.

"Oldest's" Rainbow.

"Middle's" Rainbow.

The scenery is beautiful to an "Idahoan"eye.

DH dropped us off on the bank for a bathroom break and a chance to wade and throw rocks.  Then went out to troll the bay by himself.

There are thousands of tiny shells for girls to take home in their pockets to be washed in the washer and smashed on the kitchen floor.

Plum tuckered.  It took a good 20 minute ride back to the dock.  The hum of the motor and the rocking of the boat put them right to sleep.  

Thanks for joining in on our family fun.  Boating and fishing is a great way to bring us all together in the evenings and on the weekends.

Most of you know I ran a four day craft marathon last week.  DH was out of town for those four days and I always miss him so much when he is gone.  I knew I needed something major to keep every minute of my day filled so I would not just sit on the couch and cry.  

I found myself not alone, but surrounded by many friends over those days who were running right along side to encourage me and to cheer me on.  I came out a winner because of all of you.  So, I decided to put all of the ladies names who joined me in a drawing to be the winner of my marathon.  If you commented all five days you got two entries.

I wish I could send each of you a gold medal or something:)  Just know that I appreciate each and 

everyone of you so much.

But, I could only pick one and she is:

Janet is one of my newest blogging friends.  She is a wonderful person who lives just a hop, skip, and a jump from me.  She always reminds me of the most important things in life.  Janet, I will make you a pillow with any color fabric and graphics you like.

Thanks for visiting me today and for uplifting me.  I will be visiting you too!!
