The last weekend in September is the Lake Cuyamaca Fishing Derby. Last year Grandma and Grandpa took Jacob and this year Livie got to go too. It's a fun time for the kids who get to spend quality time in the outdoors and Mom and Dad have a weekend on their own!
Jessica drove the kids up to the lake on Friday after school and they didn't come back until Sunday afternoon. The kids had a fun time fishing but sadly they only caught one fish the entire time. Before you feel too sorry for them it turns out that one lone fish Jacob caught was the first place prize winner in his age division! Yea Jacob. Olivia was happy with her goody bag and she even won a raffle prize. While they were off fishing Mom and Dad went to a charity fundraiser for school, had a last minute garage sale, cleaned out the garage, had a fancy dinner out, and got to sleep in! We were all winners!
Livie and Jacob all set up for fishing.
Happy campers!
Games with Grandpa.
A couple of ragamuffins
Jacob with his prize winning rainbow trout. That's his new rod, reel, and tackle box that he was given as the first place prize. He also got a plaque to hang on the wall.
Here is Princess Olivia sporting her new Snow White shirt and best princess smile. Jessica was glad Olivia didn't insist on wearing one of her costumes since it was really cold in the arena.
Olivia in her seat waiting for the show. She's showing off her program and princess rose.
The only stage shot we got before the camera battery died. That's Aladdin skating and waving to Jasmine who's in greenish colored pants at the top of the castle stairs.
