FISHING FRIDAY!






Ok so most of you already know that we have Taco Tuesday (tacos for dinner and renting a Redbox DVD), Southern Sunday (fried chicken, sweet tea, etc) and now a new tradition "Fishing Friday". Matt takes Nathan fishing for a few hours and I get some alone time:). It's a Father son bonding thing, Nathan feels special, and he gets some much needed one on one attention. Last week they made a tackle box out of an old ice cream bucket, it actually turned out pretty good.


When they came back from their big adventure they brought home a fish. Since they didn't catch anything Matt took Nathan to Petsmart and bought him a 13cent feeder fish. Nathans new pet fish lives in Nathans room and he has been named "Elmo". Nathan was so excited about his new fish, we went upstairs quite a few times just to look at it. It's the little things in life. As silly as these little traditions are, they really give us all something to look forward to throughout the week.

How fun! We love our pet fish. Cole changes his name daily. I'm so glad that Nathan has time with daddy to go fishing. Love Laura
