Snow day

 We drove up to Panguitch lake to do some sledding and ice fishing. Joel took us down the wrong road, and the van got stuck while backing out. Good times. We thankfully were on this fun family adventure with everyone so there was plenty of help to get us out.

Hey Regan you need to walk slow and on the snow not the ice okay. Kid didn't listen. Good thing he was all fluffy with snow cloths. Sheesh.

I snapped him out of his pity party by slapping him on a sled and shoving him down an icy ramp onto a frozen lake. "Let's do it again!" Happy boy.

Jon- "Hey Janice get a picture of that bird." Janice- "Dude! That not 'a bird' it's a bald eagle!" You just don't see stuff like this in the city.

These girls were not great at steering. Kaylee got nervous and bailed out. They stopped a couple of feet shy of some boulders.

Fishing time.  Nothing is more fun the making a snow angel next to an auger.

She was so excited to catch a fish, but would only get so close for a photo. IMG_8270 IMG_8273 IMG_8280We got to have our sweet Emma ride back to Grandma's house with us. It was SUCH a quiet ride home. These three were SOOOO worn out.

gone fishen’

Friday and Saturday afternoon we went up to Yankee Meadow to do some fishin’. Jon’s parents were camping up there for the weekend, but since it’s only 30 min from our house we decided to sleep in our own beds at night. It was such a perfect weekend. We caught lots of fish, and had SO much fun.



Kaylee was scared of the fish after hearing one gasp for breath. She had been SO excited about the whole thing. She was talking ALL week about how we were going to go fishen’ and then eat the fish.

Jon insisted that I hold up the fish (not a one was mine.). Regan thought the fish were cool.

Jon caught 5 fish our first night. 2 off my pole (to prove that my new pole wasn’t my issue).

Saturday we took the children out on the boat (first time ever) and had fun “fishen” with them. Regan lasted about an hour before declaring (by screaming bloodily murder) that he was done. Kaylee later went out with the boys for a couple hours, but sadly didn’t catch anything.

Thanks to Mom (who we failed to get a photo of) I was able to get tons of fishin’ time in without children trying to “help”, or throw themselves overboard. We also got to see Jon’s uncles (who the children and we love) when they came up to fish. I can’t wait to hit up the lake again and catch “the one that got away” (2 really, but who’s counting?).
