what are saturdays for????????

so much for sleepin' in........
saturday morning at 'cabelas' was a free fishing day for the kids. papa don thought that we needed to be up there with them. just look at these sweet faces. how could we miss it? they each got a new 'cabelas' hat. kendyl was reaching for a tan hat and chet said to her "no, kendyl, you want a yellow one". (now...who do you think is going to be wearing that hat the most?). then the fun began. they had fishing poles up there and the workers were baiting the hooks. when siona saw the worm (yuk) she wasn't quite so sure she wanted anything to do with fishing! (so, her mom!) hunter kept realing his line in and kendyl was really into the whole thing. kamryn was okay with it, but it was cold and she was ready to go IN.

ryker (or papa) was having a great time. it was cold, and we didn't stay out long enough for any of them to actually catch a fish, but they had fun. we HAD to go inside (why can't they make grocery stores that enticing to men?). i don't know for sure how long, but it seemed like all day, that we were in the store. have to look at EVERYTHING at least once and some things twice, ya know! papa told the grand kids that he would buy them each whatever they wanted. kamryn found a 'pink' cap gun in a 'pink' holster. kendyl and siona found some pretty spiffy dolls with red hair and camouflage jumpers (camping dolls, is what their moms say). hunter got a pop gun and ryker a camouflage sippy cup. the older kids (mel, chet, tiff, jeff, and haley) thought that if they put all of their kids on the 4-wheelers, maybe papa would think (it' great if he thinks that it's his idea!) he needed to buy one, for all of them to share (this is where a pair of boxing gloves would have to be a fixed item with the wheeler)
