Such a peaceful, idyllic scene. We went to the fishing lake near home last weekend around dusk. And we brought the chaos to the quiet place.
3 kids, 2 adults and a crazy dog. Chaos.
I felt a little bad to the fisherman who wanted the fish to come around, but then I got over it because I watched the joy of my children. "I did it! See!!" my youngest beamed when she successfully cast her line out.
They had no nibbles, caught nothing, but it was a nice time down at the fishing hole. A chaotic, peaceful, wonderful family time.
That evening, Clara said it was the "best day of her life." The next day, Lucas asked if we could go back again that day.
They are like their mama, who was quite the fisher girl back in my day. Oh the fish that got away!
Such a cute image, and your narrative is wonderful too! We grew up with a river in our backyard, and we fished all the time and caught: perch, catfish, carp, carp, carp, carp, carp, and one time a turtle. @mbemis
Awww such a sweet shot... one the treasure. Love the memory to go with it. Don't you love it when they make statements like that. Makes it all so worth while.
The best day of her life. I love it when kids say stuff like that. My nephew was riding his bike for the first time last month and wildly declared "I've never gone so fast in my life. I was faster than the wind" lovely shot, lovely reflections and the black and white gives it such a timeless feel x
