Gone Fishin'

The City of Lacey had a fishing event for kids - $5 for a rod and a lake stocked with fish.  Technically, Sophia was too young to register, but Ken brought her along to watch . . . and for the free hot cocoa.
Amelia was pretty excited to catch her first fish . . . and only got mildly freaked out when it started flipping around . . . but oddly, didn't seem to mind watching the guy gut and clean the fish.
Sophia caught a fish too, even though she technically should haven't been fishing . . . but the people in charge didn't seem to care, so she got a rod too.  
Sophia got bored after catching her fish, but Amelia went back at it . . . and excitedly caught another fish (although not pictured).
3 rainbow trout for dinner . . . both girls tried it . . . and Amelia ended up eating 3/4 of her fish.
$5 for 3 fish and a few hours of fishing fun - can't beat that! . . . oh, and I didn't have to come - even better!

How awesome!! I think they are already more successful at fishing than I've ever been! And what a fun way to get your dinner!
