Independence Day 2010We spent the holiday in Siren for another weekend full of great memories. We enjoyed much needed family time. We took part in a variety of activities such as: swimming, fishing, boating, lounging, the parade and fireworks! A great time was had by all, until next year...



Sweet Ryder and this bucket were very good friends this weekend.




Loves to splash!

My "big boys"

Tate and Avery

Tate and his BIG "catch" :)


Avery and his love for Fishing...

Avery is obsessed with fishing! We are certain that this love for the sport was passed down from his uncle Nathan, since there are no other fisherman in the family. He would be so thrilled:) Living out his name...Our sweet little Avery 'Nathan'

The first of many to 'bite'

Another...

And another...

And another...

And another...

Oh, what do you know...another!

He could go all night! We did bring a few home to put in our pond. Now Avery can fish to his little hearts content :)
