This Summer, a friend of mine organized weekly field trips that we have dubbed "Thursday Thrills". Each Thursday a different Mom organizes and hosts the event.
This Thursday, the event was fishing at Hagg Lake, and then playing on the beach (if it can be called that!) This was Emma's first fishing trip, and she was very excited.
We started the adventure the day before, when we visited Grandpa to have him help Emma learn to cast. Grandma and Grandpa had gotten Emma a small fishing pole as a End of School present, which is great as they live on a lake. Emma loved learning how to cast from Grandpa, and does a great job.
So this was my first trip to Hagg Lake. For the fishing portion, it was the Gates Family and us. Tammy was the organizer, and it was a really fun morning. Her eldest caught our one and only fish, which worked perfectly as he could get his merit badge by catching, cleaning and cooking his fish. There was another catch, when his line caught on a mess and pulled up this lovely can that Tammy is holding.
After lunch, we were joined by the Fishers of the Hillsboro Ward. Emma loved playing with her two friends, but boy was she muddy a the end of the day. It was everywhere, and I am not sure our sandals will ever be the same.
