Just Fishing Like Grandpa...

Two weekends ago, we made a quick quick trip to Utah. I had previously planned on visiting for a week, but when my kiddos got sick, the trip was canceled. Later that week, we received word that my grandpa was not doing so well and that there was a high probability of him passing away soon. We quickly made plans for a weekend get-a-way to Utah.

We were able to spend lots of time with my grandpa, which was fantastic. He is still alive, and doing the best he can with his circumstances.

While we were in Utah, Conner was able to go fishing with his grandpa.

My dad spent hours on the imaginary boat with Conner catching imaginary fish. Conner LOVED it and has talked about nothing else for the last two weeks.

This morning, I decided that it was time to go fishing again. Conner had lots of fun painting his fishing pole, while I cut and glued some felt fish.



and we have been busy ever since fishing. We have caught so many fish, we might be eating felt for dinner tonight :)

I wonder how many times I'll hear the phrase "Look Mom... I am fishing like grandpa" today...

Well, I am off to go boating with Conner. As I have been typing this blog post, he keeps reminding me that I am in the water and that I need to climb on the boat :) I haven't been boating forever... maybe I'll get a sun tan??

First Haircut

Caleb received his first haircut from his dad today. Caleb laughed through his haircut and was such a sweet heart! I am so proud of him :)
