Memorial Day Weekend

For Memorial Day weekend we were invited up to Brandon's boss's ranch in Oklahoma. It was amazing! It was 7,800 acres of rolling hills and lakes with TONS of wildlife. Of course we didn't go hunting but the boys got to go fishing for their first time and they had a blast!


After we got there we broke out the boys' new fishing poles.

The boys got to take turns driving down to the lake in one of the camouflage cars.




The boys learned how to bait their own hook (we used minnows)and were spoiled rotton catching one fish after another.



Tradition is to kiss your first fish for good luck :)


After we went fishing the first day, Shane (Brandon's boss) took us around part of the ranch to see some of the animals.


There were two other kids there that the boys had fun playing with.

The next day we went fishing and swimming. Chase, our little dare devil Driving home with very, very tired boys.
