Fishing In Pine Valley

If you haven't noticed it is summer, and HOT in  St George so we thought it would be super fun and refreshing to go up to Pine Valley and take Missy-Marilyn fishing.  All day long she said "Daddy go fishing?" and "Marilyn Bring My Fishing Pole".  We got the car packed up with chairs and fishing gear and sunglasses and Marilyn's precious Barbi fishing pole.  It was darling to see her waiting by the window looking for Daddy to come home to take us fishing.  If you know Tom at all, you know he is a bit of a fishing enthusiast.  So he came home prepared.  He brought worms and other kinds of artificial lures and baits and off we were!


How pretty is it there, not to mention how adorable is he?


Marilyn loved that she was allowed to get as dirty as she wanted, and seriously it was so gross but she was in heaven!




These cows were right next to us and the second Minnie noticed them, she was off to visit the "Moo's"


We met a snake...he freaked Marilyn out a little bit, but she has talked about that snake on the way home

This is the fish we caught on Marilyn's pole (we only caught 1 other fish), she almost died when she got to touch the fish and it was on her pole.  She laughed so hard when it was flipping around and she said "bye bye fishy" when it swam away.


She gave us a thumbs up, Marilyn style




When she saw the fish jumping she started jumping like a little maniac, for at least 20 minutes she jumped non stop. 




She loved being outside and getting dirty and catching the fish.  She was so happy to get to go fishing with Daddy.  We had such a great night!

that's awesome! I love her thumbs up and the fact that you let her get really dirty and her little jumping maniac moment.
