fishing

Grace has been wanting dad to show the A-day girls how to fish.  The very last Wednesday that he lives in Maryland they finally got a chance!  It was a good turn out and a fun night for everyone.  We're going to miss these cute girls.  Darlaina and Michelle are the best A-day leaders ever.

They meet at the pond in Wildewood and fished.  Grace caught a lot.  Everyone learned a little something and tried their hand at it.

 After the others left Arden stayed behind with Grace and Rob and they helped her catch her own very first fish!

I volunteered to keep Ashby and Alva while they were gone.  These two cute girls are just darling and were so good.  Alva did get sad after a couple of hours and we had to go on a "night walk". Ashby was a very enthusiastic lightning bug spotter, star gazer and snake look out.  She thought that fireflies might be the tooth fairy checking to see if she was asleep yet.  I think that well may be.

The youth had a service competition.  We had a group come to our house and wipe down doors and door jams, take out trash, sweep the porch and pick up Ziva's toys.
