Gone Fishin'

Natalya has been waiting until the weather cooled down so that she could go fishing with Daddy.  Usually Vienne is not interested but today she really wanted to go to.  Not really to fish but probably mostly so she wouldn't be left out.  She really didn't do much fishing.  We explored, splashed in the water, found treasures and had a nice time in the cool Sunday air.  Natalya really enjoys it.  Hmm, it's such a metaphor for their personalities these days. 

She had hoped that it would be as easy as holding the net to let a fish jump in.  She learned quickly that that was not going to happen.

Natalya caught a fish...

Vienne caught a fuzzy creepy crawly, a frog, and almost caught a dragon fly.

This will be My Best Shot for today.  On occasion she'll let us us help a little but most of the time she's Miss Independent.  

My Photo Contest is running through Friday so you have time to get something in.  Details here.  Happy Monday to ya!

These are such precious moments. I LOVE the one of V with Daddy. I wonder whether she will ever get to like fishing or whether she just likes the 'idea' of it?

Looks like a great day for fishing. I love the creepy crawly thing.

The last pic is great - the surroundings are gorgeous.

I love these. The last one is my very favorite!

I love the first shot, but they are all great. It is nice when they let you help them even if it is just a little bit.

That daddy and daughter shot is precious! I've never been much of a fisher...looks like N is, tho!

Love those shots, especially the last one. So sweet! LOL at her holding the net for the fish to jump in. :)

I'll have to look at my pumpkin patch pics again and see if any of them were creative. Cute? Yes. Creative? Not so much. ;)

That first one is my favorite, but all of them are great! What fun family time!

Hey, LOVE the fishing shots....
Will you email me? I am wanting to know where you guys go fishing, and to offer you a trade?
Let's talk, talent to talent, ok?
Thanks,
Charisse

Okay, those are the BOMB! But, #4 made my heart go pitter-patter for sure. Fab shots. Great BSM!

That last shot is precious of her with Daddy. Great capture. Although it looks like she had a fine time wandering around the park you were at. I love the shot with the net. I wish that fish jumped in the net too. :)

That is great family time. The last shot is really sweet, but I am drawn to the first one as my fave.

October 13, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterJoanna

Oh that last one is priceless, Mel. Wow - I feel all squishy just looking at it. So sweet.

That looks so fun. I used to love to go fishing with my grandfather - until he started making me clean the fish. That ended our fishing outings together. Oh well. My favorite is the first photo really. It just draws me in. But that last one is so sweet the two of them working together. such precious time this is.

Hello, I just came across your site. Not sure how, but have been trying to find a template for my web blog. I love yours. I do photography so I just want something basic to really show off my photos.

Do you know where you got your Template? Did you buy it or was it free?

Thanks! Any info would save me hours of searching :)

What a great day. And that last shot is gorgeous!

October 15, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterMaggie

I agree the best shot is the last one! I also liked the fuzzy creepy crawly!

October 15, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterCara

Natalya looks so big! Wow! I can't believe my eyes. Tell everyone "hi" and we look forward to seeing you guys next month!
