Dante, Jake & HaleighThis weekend was the 20th Annual Fishing Derby up in Kernville, Ca. We have never gone before so this was really a treat.
Eddie loves to fish and when her heard the fish were tagged with prize money, well he just loved it even more!

Both days Debra (she owns the home we stay in when we are there) had everyone out the door by 6ish..that would be A.M. in case you were wondering.
Debra's got her list!Debra is always organized and ALWAYS has the most fun stuff planned for the kids. She is a big kid herself and they just LOVE her. She is also just the best chef around so you KNOW we had the greatest food all weekend. Of course we all look it now!
Jake being...well, Jake!Later in the morning they came back to the house and picked Jake up so he could go and have some fun too. He is such a goob! Of course he loved it. But now I have to explain to him that we only eat the fish in the lake, not our 2 fish in our bowls at home! The fish are safe...for now!
Haleigh had a great time too.My beautiful Haleigh will be 13 next week. Can't hardly believe it! She loved the Derby and fished like a pro! You go Haleigh girl!! Happy Birthday Honey. :)
Daddy & JakeEddie is such a great sport. As much as he loves to fish I was told (because I stayed home...6 am..really? NO!) he made sure everyone's pole was ready with those gross things that are alive on each one...bait. Yuck. I do love fishing too but someone had to stay home and well do something?
They fished both days and the only thing they caught was Eddie's hat! It flew off his head and they all started going for it in the lake! Ahhhhh, so funny. Oh yea, and they caught a dead fish that was not tagged with the big money. Oh, well, there is always next year!!

We had a fun day with a baby sparrow that fell onto Debra's deck. Sweet little guy got his "foot" caught in the deck so I used a stick to help him get himself out. Apparently he was dazed because he did not fly away or even move. we sat around him and watched him for a long time. The kids loved being so close to a wild bird. Eventually he started walking around and just looking at us, wondering who or what we were. Eddie got a long stick and helped him jump on but instead the little guy jumped on Eddie's pants and just hung on! Eddie finally got him into a tree using the stick. Later when we checked on him he was not there. We hoped that he got his wings going and flew home.
Until next time..........
