Camping

We went camping to 6 Mile Lake in Mayfield, Utah. Our goal was to catch some fish since last year we didn't catch a bite. Boy did we catch some fish!!! Next year we need to bring along some friends to share in the fun.


Once Emily decided to try the pink marshmallows (power bait) we were catching them so fast dad couldn't get them off the hook fast enough.

So happy to have caught his first fish! "Come here little fishy"

Anatomy 101 Dad's showing Jake the heart, that was still beating. So Cool!

The first day Jake caught 4 fish and Emily caught 4 too! "When do we get to eat them?"

Jake liked being up close and personal with the fish.

"Fishing is soooo awesome!" Thanks Dad


Hiking around the lake.

We love to play games!

Jake figured out how to cast by himself. You just don't want to be any where near him while he does it. He's a big kid now.

Jake's first fish that he caught all by himself!


Emily finally caught a fish on day 2. They didn't like the pink marshmallows any more so catching fish required some patience and finding the right bait.

Emily wins the prize for the biggest fish but dad dropped it in the water and it got away. We caught 9 fish the second day. Jake caught 5 and Emily caught 4.
