Gone Fishing

Andy has been telling Olivia he would take her fishing for some time now. She was so excited to go fishing while up north over the Independence Day holiday. We packed all the fishing gear, but with as busy as we were, we never managed to squeeze in any fishing time. Olivia was disappointed so we tried to please her by telling her she could go fishing on the Lake in Tawas. Andy and I both very aware that fishing of my aunt and uncle's docks on Lake Huron would yield no fish, but thought it was please her at least. The waters were fairly rough while we were there, but the girls and I still went in swimming for a bit. Needless to say it would have been ridiculous to attempt fishing. Andy made a deal with Olivia to drive to Oscoda to try out their miniature golf course in lieu of fishing, and promised he'd take her fishing when we got home. (They have already been fishing for those of you concerned; Olivia caught 7, Andy 3) Olivia happily accepted the offer.

I scored 2 hole-in-ones back to back!

Olivia was so proud of her high score! She got an 81 for the day!

Noelle has been begging Tom to take her fishing, as she has never gone before! We'll have to have the girls (plus Max) go fishing in Sturgis.
Miniture golfing is something we have never done either with the kids. You guys are great at getting out and doing things with the children!
