Fish Lake 2009

I'm trying to get the ball rolling here.  We went to Fish Lake back in June (yes a month ago) but hey, better to post late than never right?

We always love to stop at our favorite burger and fry place in Salina, The Hot Spot.  

We had a lot of big rocks near our campground and it didn't take long for Sadie to perch herself on top of one to sing Ariel's "ahh ahh ahh".  She sang it at the top of her lungs towards the beautiful lake. 

Cole's first ride on the ATV.  He was a natural!  We let him ride around in a little meadow first so he could get a feel of it.  And after a good warm up, Kevin, Cole, Luke and Grandpa went for a ride. 

While they were riding, Cole was on a trail that started to slant a little.  So to his natural instinct he turned to correct the balance.  Unfortunately there was a lake at the end of his turn and he drove right into the lake about 15 feet!!! On the ATV!! LOL!  Oh do I wish I was there to capture it on camera!  The little ATV was so light that it floated in the water!  So Kevin had to roll up his pants and go in after him.  Cole was all calm and just yelled"Dad, I'm stuck" after it happened!  So funny!  We now call that place Cole's Pond!  What a fun way to remember his first ride! :)

My SIL Stacey made all these cute shirts for the kids!  Love them!  Thanks Stacey!

Our post church family photo.  There is nothing like church at the Fish Lake Lodge!! 

After church we all went down to The Capital Reef for a fun relaxing afternoon with all the cousins.  This is the group that all played a fun game of baseball.

Then we like to walk down to the dirty devil to get cooled down and catch little minnow fish.

Our trip isn't' compete until we get a nice boat ride on the lake!  Not much luck catching any fish on the Barbie fishing pole.

But Cole's little Tigger pole scored us a fish.  My brother Brent finally broke our family's 3 year dry spell and caught us a nice Rainbow Trout!   We must scare away all those fish with all the noise the kids bring along!  Luckily our cousins who are pro fishers caught plenty of fish for a yummy fish fry!  Thanks you guys!!

MaryJane was super busy and a really hard age to have at Fish Lake.  But we still made some fun memories!  It was so nice to spend some quality time with Kevin before he left.  Fish Lake always makes for some good times!
