The frog
Every year we torture the nature around us...in years past it has been fish only...this year someone was so nice as to donate the frog. Thankfully Uncle David "accidentally" tipped over the jug at some prime moment and the frog was saved to be a prince to someone else. Jenna took it pretty well!
This is Jenna with her cousin Michelle.

James, the little cheese ball! He was such a good boy to be on the boat!
This is how Eliza did most of her fishing...looks comfy huh?
Eliza's Fish
Last weekend we were able to go camping with Grandpa Jim and Granny Lee at Panguitch lake in Utah. We had a great time. Eliza and Jenna got a new fishing pole from Grandpa and were so excited to fish. The girls and James were great out on the boats on Saturday. Eliza was able to catch her first fish too! Except, it didn't make it in the net. It was a whopper but broke the line before it was netted.
Monday morning we went out again to try and resolve that problem. Eliza scored again! The minute I could see the fish in the water I started taking pictures but here it is in all its glory! Almost 19 inches of cut throat trout.
Unfortunately that is exactly the wrong size cut throat and we had to put it back...so with the excitement of catching this nice fish we had the tears and anguish of releasing it back into the lake.

Date Night...pretty much
Scott and I got out for a date last night. Finally using a gift certificate to a restaurant we've had since Christmas! After dinner we tried going to a movie but it was sold out so were heading to another destination when we get a phone call from the mom of the babysitter...never a very good sign.
Apparently James was stuck in the chair...can we cut it off? Ummmm....well, we'll come home and check it out. Sorry the picture isn't so good but it was moments before Scott had to cut the chair and James had been stuck for about 30 minutes.
Let me explain what you are looking at. Basically he is wearing the chair like a backpack. His head and arms are stuck between the rung (between the two front legs-he arms are right over the rung) and the bottom of the chair. He was so exhausted by the time we got home all he wanted to do was sleep, with or without the chair attached.

The boy James
James is always good for a laugh...he loves to be silly...he loves to play and he loves to try new things. Here are some of the most recent pictures of James.
James is very particular about his clothes...he has to be wearing shorts of his choosing. Lately it is these shorts...swimming shorts or his basketball shorts which he can find just about anywhere. He's like my sister and chocolate...if its in the house he can find it. Freshly folded and on the shelf, in the dirty laundry...makes to difference to him. Anyway he changes at least a couple times a day.
His other favorite thing is to be like dad...here he is wearing his dads basketball shorts. Perhaps this is the true inspiration for the others.
