Fishing



Every year when Grandpa Clyde comes to visit we take a trip to the hatchery in ogden and let the kids fish for our dinner! I love this tradition because I remember going fishing there when I was little with my Dad and Grandpa Baker. This year was so fun because both our kids were interested in fishing. We got Cooper a Spiderman fishing pole and he and Melia spent the afternoon practicing in our front yard. All the practice paid off for Melia who caught 4 fish all on her own! She was so cute telling us on the way home, "It's a good thing I caught all those fish or we wouldn't have anything to eat for dinner!" It was a lot of fun. Cooper had help catching one, but mainly loved following Holly around the Hatchery and finding snacks and drinks. Aunt Julie always has something cute for the kids and got them all sunglasses to fish in style! We cooked up the fish and wondered if the kids would like it. Melia tried one piece and wasn't too impressed with the taste, but we gave Cooper his what we called "nuggets" and he gobbled them right up. Tastes like chicken right? Well all in all it was another fun fishing trip to the Hatchery!
