Saturday Fun Day #2

We had another fun filled Saturday!!
 
We started off at the "Fishing Expo" at the Lamar Dixon Expo Center in Gonzales.
 
Cade has been really into fishing lately and Josh has been extremely impressed by his casting skills. So we thought it would be a fun little activity for the boys and the first 50 kids got a free rod and tackle box, but of course you advertise free and we found out people race to the gate!! So we didn't get there in time for the free stuff, which is probably good the rods were cheap and too big for the boys anyway.  
 
Daddy hooked Cade's fishing rod up with his first hook ever and a worm. First instructions he said were "wait until I step back before you move the rod"....famous last words!!
 
Of course, by habit Cade immediately threw the rod back and hooked Daddy right in the shirt....luckily no skin was penetrated.....this time!
 
 
After a strick talking to and more instruction, Cade remembered this time to stop, look behind him say "Everybody watch out" and then cast!

 
If you look closely in the pic below you can see the whole in daddy's shirt where Cade hooked him, hehe!

 
He cast a couple of times, but no luck!! It was beginning to get hot, so daddy promised another fishing trip soon and we were off to look at boats and the rest of the expo.

 
 
Grandpere drove in the night before to participate in the Saturday Fun Day. DD was out of town so we were glad he could join in on the fun!

 The "dream" boat!
 
Next activity was our swimming birthday party....I took the boys by myself while Josh and his dad drove around and looked at property, so no pictures past this one! But it was super fun and the boys had a blast swimming in the pool! They really enjoyed their orange cake pops too, thank Robert for a fun bday party!!

 
That night we went to the circus!!

 
Brooks was really excited!


 
We had fun eating our cotton candy and watching all of the goofy little stunts and shows. It was not as exciting as I remember the circus and the boys actually got a little bored, mostly probably because they were pooped out from our busy day, but it was still fun!! Their favorite parts were the elephants, motorcycles and the dog show!


 




 
The tight wire was impressive!




Whew...what a fun day!! Until next time....
