Blowing Rock, day three

Sunday, June 17, 2012

We started out day three fishing at Grandfather’s Trout Farm.  Kinda cheating, yep, but still fishing?  You bet!  Jack and Mark had a great time, and Sam can’t wait until he can fish!imageimageimageBefore too long, they hooked one, and the boys got busy!imageimageJack was excited to be in charge of the net, and I was terrified that he was going to fall in!imageHe stayed dry, but the fish’s fate wasn’t looking so good.  Into the bucket he went.  They fished for a bit longer and then we headed out-to my delight!  I LOVED seeing Jack and Mark so happy, but fishing is clearly a father/son thing!imageWe tried to go to Valle Crucis but we just had a pretty drive through the mountains instead.  We’ll get there next time!  We stopped for a quick lunch and then went home to get the boys down.  We watched more golf, I worked on Sam’s first year book, and we had more of this-imageWhen they woke up, we went on a little hike around our house.imageimageimageimageimageimageimageimageOh goodness, these two!  I’m so thankful!imageimageJack wanted to be a bit more adventurous, so Mark and Sam stayed back and he and I explored.  His imagination was going wild and it was great!  imageimageimageimageimageAfter our hike, we came back in for a pancake supper.  Yuuummmmy!  The boys love their daddy’s pancakes-It’s was Jack’s request tonight!imageimageOh, we even had some karate, too.imageAfter supper, we turned the TV facing outside so we could watch the Open and enjoy the amazing mountain weather.imageThat sweet Sammers, he’s so patient with the teasing love from his big brother!imageimageimageMan, I loved this day, too!image
