From Russia with Love

Pete took the boys fishing this weekend and finally caught something. Actually, Pete caught a fish and the elderly Russian couple that fell in love with Hans gave him 3 to take home. Pete also received a Northwest fishing lesson from this couple who could just not stop catching fish. Fishing here is a lot different from Utah and now that Pete had some local pointers he's ready to go. He caught his on the first cast out after his lesson but then the boys were too cold to stay. I was really disappointed that I wasn't there because there were two large eagles fishing the lake as well. I'm bummed I missed it. Seeing Silas look like he walked out of deadliest catch made up for it though.
Olive did not take kindly to being left behind. She just sat in a dirt hole in her diaper. And..... after many hours of debating Siobhan chose the nickname to go on her track sweatshirt. I thought this was the best one, we have called her Bon Bon since she was a baby. Since starting middle school here she has received several nicknames. Most kids at school call her skully, most of her clothes have a skull on it somewhere and also she loves it because of Grandma and Grandpa fish. Her first choice was to have it say nickname which was scrapped when Pete said he wouldn't front the bills for it with that name. So here it is, take a good look because from now on wherever she goes, she will be running.

What great pictures. The boys are more handsome than the deadliest catch guys. They probably don't smell as fishy either. And Little Olive Jane looked like a little glow worm sitting in the dirt. And what can I say about our BonBon, the prettiest girl in the world! Lot's of love, Mama
