Lakeside Fun

We visited my Dad's cousin Evelynn one day. She lives on lake-side property, so the kids enjoyed the lake!

Sidenote: Daphne's face is pink/blotchy in these pictures because Grandpa let her play with makeup, while I spent a few short minutes in the bathroom. I was sure surprised when I came out! He claimed I only told him to "watch her" and not "stop her." Luckily the mascara didn't get opened.

My Dad was excited for my kids' first time fishing!
Grandpa had a fishing pole for each of themDayton loved holding his fishing pole
Dayton reeling in the line;
He was disappointed we didn't catch any fish, but he said
the fish were scared away by the dock's squeaky noises
Blotchy Daphne holding her pole;
She liked reeling in her line, too
We took a quick trip in the rowboat;
Grandpa rowed along the shore because we didn't have lifejackets
(the kids look upset, but they just didn't want their picture taken)

Too bad they didn't catch any fish. I would have loved to see the kids help grandpa clean the fish, cook it and eat it.

That make-up face cracks me up! Your kids are going to have such great memories of fun times with their grandparents.
