Trip to the Mountain

Yesterday, we made in impromptu trip up the to the Big Horns. One of things to do on our Summer bucket list was to go fishing, so we decided to take a picnic lunch (another thing on our list) and do a little fishing. There were lots of people on the mountain, but to our surprise, there weren't many people fishing on Half Ounce Creek where we always go. We had lunch first and then headed out to do a little fishing. The boys were in heaven as they fished down the creek with their dad. Christian was really good about teaching them how to sneak up on the fish to catch them. Each of the older boys actually caught at least one fish on their own and we caught a total of around 10 in the couple of hours we were up there. Landon and I hung out behind everyone else and threw rocks in the creek and climbed on big rocks. It was such a nice day to spend as a family and hope we can do it again soon!

Landon was so good about waving to each person that drove by while we were fishing.

The first catch of the day!

Taking a time out for a picture!

Landon wasn't so sure what to think about the fish. He really wanted to touch them until it came down to it. We got him to hold one, but that was it. He just kept saying, "I see".

Travis' catch!

This picture is the best! Travis was so excited to pull another fish out!
