Fishing Opener

We had such a fun weekend at our house in Baudette, fishing opener, visiting with family and friends, and attending Alyssa and Matt Ramiller's wedding. (Sorry, this post is really delayed)

These guys got up at seven in the morning, excited to check out the lake and the many, very large frogs that inhabit it. I was still buried in my comforter getting my beauty sleep.

 

 

 

 

Early Saturday morning before the wedding, Dave and Kevin, along with our crew headed out on our boat to fish opener. The lake was crammed with boats filled with very serious fisherman...which Eddy did not cease to wave at. (I was so embarrassed)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dave bought the biggest steaks I have ever seen, and we had a nice meal together. They were the best steaks I have ever had in my entire life!

Hunter Safety Course Completion!

The past several weeks me (Lindsey) and Alyssa have been taking a firearm and hunting safety class. The other night we had our final test and practice shooting. We were both really scared that we weren't going to pass but, we did and we are so glad its all over. Both of us decided it was the easiest test we had ever taken. We both had 3 mistakes on the 60 problem test. I'm so excited to hunt this year!

 

Recap

Yikes, these past weeks have been flying by! I don’t want to forget any of it so I’m just gonna blog a big mishmash of what we’ve been doing lately.

Alyssa finally talked mom into buying her a fish tank with a bunch of tropical fish. She talks to them every night. She also freaks out when they don’t get to bed on schedule.

 

I finally saved up enough money to buy this iPod Nano, I’ve been listening to music nonstop and the boys are starting to sing all my songs.

Dad tilled the field.

We had our first bonfire of the summer!

We’ve been swimming in Silver lake a lot.

We went to go fishing in Silver lake, but ended up fishing in the Buffalo river. We also had a mud fight. We didn’t catch anything, I think we were using bass poles.

We went to breakfast on the farm. Nolan got 3rd place on the tractor pull and Carly got 2nd.

Me and Lexie Rivers ran the rodeo 5k in Hawley together….well…..she ran. My time was 45 minutes. Her time was 30 minutes.

After the 5k we went to my house and mom made us breakfast. After breakfast we did a photo shoot.

Our bridge is getting a makeover.

We had the River girls over again for a bonfire and to watch the dugger season finale. We thought it started at 8 but turns out it started at 7.

Really fun week, and I would do it all again!
