First Fishing Trip

Yesterday, we took Petyon on her very first fishing trip.  Uncle Craig and Aunt Nicole invited us to join them for a few hours on the boat.

Peyton was so excited to go.  However, she kept saying, "it's not dark out".  At first I didn't understand what she meant.  But then I figured it out, the only time she had been on a boat was a short ride at night time.  I guess her little brain couldn't comprehend going during the day.

We loaded her in the boat, strapped her in a life jacket and off we went.

It didn't take Uncle Craig and Dad long to start catching fish.

Here she is reeling in her first fish (a lady fish) with her Daddy.

She was so excited once she got the fish to the boat.  Hwowever, she wouldn't go near it.  We tried to coax her to touch it but she would not budge.

Below is the acutal first fish.

And here is Uncle Craig holding the monster fish since Peyton wouldn't

We had so much fun on the high seas with the Whitakers.  Peyton has been telling me all morning about the "jumping fish" and "Craig feeding the bird".  We can't wait to go again!
