We arrived at the lake and packed all our gear down a pretty steep hill, bad idea to wear flip flops. Brandon said "ok girls my pole is getting set up first so we have good luck and you gals catch some fish today". In went his pole, then Shirsten's and while he was setting up Alyssa's the first fish hit on Brandon's line! The girls got so excited! One after another we were all catching fish. They were giggling and smiling and just lit up with excitement. I was standing there holding my pole and looking around at the scene around me. Here I was looking at my two beautiful girls and the man of my dreams doing what we all love. I was completely mesmerized and so incredibly thankful for this wonderful life I am living.
Just then Alyssa started reeling in the biggest fish we caught all day. When it was close to shore, Brandon's line hit with another one... Doubles! Shirsten was feeling a little tug tug on her pole and reeled in the cutest lil fishy ever.
Then the rain came :) at first it was raining just a lil bit so we decided to wait it out in the car. We climbed the muddy hill and got in the car and turned on Despicable Me. After 2 minutes it was a full on downpour. We only had to wait about 20 minutes and ventured back down to the lake. Our trail walking down had become a rushing river. We were laughing so hard. Fishing became a little slower after that, although Brandon caught 2 more tee hee. We were down there about a half hour more when the downpour hit again. We were scrambling trying gather everything up and climb the muddy waterfall back to the car. It was seriously so fun!
After all was said and done we were soaked to the bone, had 4 fish that we kept, and in utter happiness!
