Our Fishing Date

We were supposed to go to a water park (without our kids) on Sunday, but due to Jake's ER visit we were unable to get away. I don't think we've been on a date for a month or so now and we really needed to have some one-on-one time. When we start not seeing eye to eye, a date is WAY past due!

Anyhow, we got a sitter last minute to watch the boys while we headed to a pond on post to do some fishing. We didn't have any luck reeling anything in but we both had a few bites, Jake landed one but it jumped off the line before it got to land, and I paid the price of wearing Crocs fishing and was attacked by fire ants. But all in all, it was a great date/time away from the boys that we both needed. I love doing activities that Jake enjoys... the saying "If mama ain't happy..." is the same for daddies! :)

Ready to take on some fish!

Moments after a "monster" fish jumped off his line. Our only hope for catching a fish that night... crushed!

Pouting about our inability to land a fish... but the date was still fun!
