Snake skin and an amazing day on the water!

Clint is showing the kids how to skin a snake. This is a rattlesnake that the boys found one day fishing along the river.
 Next, you nail it down and salt it...  then you leave it to dry.
 Now Dane has a beautiful snakeskin to go on the wall!
 Yesterday, we headed out to one of my favorite fishing spots. Luckily we were fishing from the boat, cause there was a recent hatch of mayflies or something similar. You can see how many there are in the picture below.
 and the fishing was outstanding. Clint and I landed a double right off the bat, and Dane expertly netted them.
 Then our budding photographer, Kimber, took a picture for us!
Daddy helping Kimber reel one in.
 Daddy's girl!
 These fish are a ton of fun; they love to fight and here Dane is playing a really nice one!
 and he landed it!
 Another nice one that Kimber and Daddy landed.
 Then we took a little break for the kids to swim and play on the beach!


 The Scotts sent some dress up clothes for the kids and Kimber LOVES the shoes. She wears them all the time. So, yesterday I had to take a picture! Can you just see the Diva in this photo! (and he brother mocking her in the background!)
 We are in so much trouble! :)
