We took the family to Twin Falls for spring break, to visit Uncle Gary and Aunt
Marcia. We had a lot of fun, avoiding the wind and rain, and we weren't prepared for it to be quite so cold, but we all had a really good time. Courtney's favorite thing was everything, Zach's was going fishing, Tyler's was the Easter egg hunt,
Kenzie's was running the dogs on the 4 wheeler, and I think that Jared's favorite part was helping out with the cows and castrating a few of them. (No that was not a typing error, I really think that was his highlight. I enjoyed just hanging out without a busy schedule, and we got to see some friends that had moved away. The Pope family, it was good to catch up on old times and a few new ones.
This is Shoshone Falls, it was so windy and cold that we only got out for a few minutes, apparently they don't usually have this much water flowing, so we picked the right time to go. We enjoyed
Kenzie as we were leaving, she repeated the following over and over again, "Bye Bye Waterfalls, I love you waterfalls, see you in a minute waterfalls." I thought she was going to drive everyone crazy. She later did the same thing when we went to feed the cows.
The kids had to swipe a few hats and extra sweat shirt because the wind made it really cold. But they sure looked cute.
Zach had to have help holding his because he said if it flipped its fin it would knock him down. And he's ready to go fishing again soon.
Tyler wants to catch a big one next time, apparently he had one on his line and it broke the line. Better luck next time.
Uncle Gary and Jared took the kids fishing, they went to a private pond, and in some ways this was good and in others not so good. The not so good is that now they can never go fishing in a regular pond, because they will never catch close to what they have all ready caught, But the good part is that they did catch and now they all want to go again, only next time Gary says you get to clean your own fish.
Tyler was the first to catch and they were little, he says he caught catfish because they fed them to the cat. After that the smallest one they caught was 6 1/2 pounds and the biggest almost 8 1/2 pound. I know a picture is worth a thousand words, so it was a good thing I sent the camera. They were pretty impressive. Now if we only ate fish!
