We've Been Fishing!

The past two weekends we have been going fishing. It is so relaxing to us, and we really enjoy it.

We have caught a lot of these perch.

Here is my brother Kim. He is teaching Jerzie how to fish. She does a real good job reeling the fish in. She caught her first fish with daddy on April 20th. She was very excited about it. Her mommy video taped her.

This a picture of Chris. We fished for 6 hours straight this night. Every time one of us threw our line in the water, the other would be reeling a fish in. We caught so many fish that night. (50-60)

Jerzie went home, but Daddy was still using her fishing pole. Don't you just love the grin on Kim's face. Click HERE to see the huge fish he really did catch on opening day of trout season.

Chris caught this Silver Bass. We caught a couple more that evening but they seem to have a disease.

We released all of the fish we caught. Do any of you fish?

Bloomin' Tuesday!

Whoops! We forgot to post this morning before we started our busy day.

Our white Primrose doesn't have many blooms, but the ones it has are nice and big.

Our Tulips are finally starting to open. We thought we would have more blooms than we do. The ones that are open look very healthy.

Our pink Primroses have gone crazy. This picture is of one plant.

Eagle Spotting!

This week, a friend of ours told us about an eagle's nest he saw and thought we would want to go take pictures. Chris and I went to find the nest today. The nest is on an old telephone pole in a swamp area. It has to be at least 4 feet wide. We got as close as we could to get pictures. Since the sun was so bright and the eagle was flying so fast, we didn't get great pictures. It is an amazing thing to watch in person. I'm sure we will go back to see it again, and maybe even take a video of it.

We Like It!

At Christmastime, we hung THIS window over our mantle and decided that we really liked the look of it. Since we liked it so much, Laurie looked for spring or garden stitcheries to do to replace the snowmen.

She finished up the last one a couple of weeks ago. We got them changed over and hung the frame back up.

We also changed out the mantle decorations so it would look more like Spring.

We haven't decided if we are going to change it again for Summer, but we have found some Autumn patterns that we like.

Easter Surprise!

This may look like an ordinary chocolate Easter egg to most of you, but it is a special Easter egg to me. Every year for Easter Dad would get us kids an egg from Peterson's Candies in Busti, NY. Chris remembered this and went to Peterson's Candies a couple days before Easter with out me knowing. He bought this peanut butter egg to surprise me with on Easter Sunday. He definitely surprised me. I only cried a little bit after opening it. : )

When mom and dad don't understand,

a sister always will.
