two fishing trips this week!

we have been trying to beat the heat and get out of the city... our first trip we took was just up to east canyon... it really wasn't beating the heat...

it was only 2 degrees cooler... oh well, it was still fun to get out and play in the water!

merrick loved being out in the sun and swimming! thats right... i only raise water babies! he was so into kasey getting his rod ready and casting out from the shore.

we didn't catch anything but it was still fun.

our second fishing trip we took the boat up to strawberry res. this was merricks first time on the boat... he hated the life vest at first, he looked like the marshmellow puff guy with a neck brace on... but he was stoked to get it taken off for bum changes... he pretty much just layed there and played with jord, his toy and even took a good nap...

we caught one fish (that we could actually take home) merrick was so into it...

he would cuddle it if he could!

poor kid! we were going to jump in the water on the way back to the dock but some clouds rolled in and it got cold... so merrick, jord and i were pretty bummed. thats what we get for waiting i guess.
