Beach Weekend

Going to the beach in the dead of winter isn't most people's idea of a great vacation, but we had a great time this weekend.  We weren't sure how Addy would feel about the beach without being in a swimsuit and being able to swim, but she had a great time, mainly because Michael introduced her to fishing.  Dad resurrected one of my old kiddie fishing rods which is probably 30 years old, but it still worked.

Michael and Addy fishing in the lagoon.  She was able to pick up on casting really fast.  And she quickly learned that there were no fish here. 

4 years old and already a lazy fisherman.  Or as Addy would say, "fishergirl".  Granny - that is the chair that you bought Addison ages ago, it survived the hurricane and it still gets tons of use each time we are at the beach house. 

On to bigger and better fishing locations - the beach.  Unfortunately, they still didn't catch any fish.  On Friday, when we were getting ready for the beach Addy had decided that she was going to fish with a sandwich on the hook, because fish like sandwiches.  Obviously!  But fortunately she forgot that plan and I didn't have to make any sandwiches for the fish.  I anticipate a lot more fishing in our future!
