Fishing with Daddy

Harrison loves fishing and begs Clinton to go fishing all the time! We decided to take the boat out one  evening with the kids and take them fishing, unfortunately the Mandurah Boat Show was all set up and was blocking our usual boat ramp. We went with plan B and took the kids fishing on the nearby jetty instead. Sienna did really well and caught a few small fish...she didn't want to get too close to them though!

Poor Daddy had to do all the dirty work!

Alissa having a go and catching a puffer fish - she called it a "papa fish!" 
Harry caught lots of little fish, not many big ones by the jetty
A big pelican saw what we were up to and tried to get an easy feed from our fishing rods!




Their biggest catch...a crab net!!!
We then ate fish and chips at the jetty and headed home.

Swimming...Swimming....and more Swimming....

One thing my children do a lot is SWIM! In the pool, at the beach...all year round, thanks to where we live! My Dad made sure the pool was well heated for the kids before they arrived in September so they were able to swim the whole time. All the cousins (Meurs and Snow) enjoyed having Papa Meurs and Papa Snow to entertain them in the pool.

Everyone wanted a ride on Papa's back!
