On Wednesday we ventured up to the Metolius river to "scout" out the campsite for our upcoming camping trip with the church. It was a wonderful day - just right for weather. The kids were excited for the adventure and possibility of fishing. Kyle was excited to don his new fishing waders in hope of catching some trout. The fish were not all that excited about be caught, but Kyle was able to share his love of fishing with Jack, who was super thrilled about being in the river with his dad. The pictures that follow are a little glimpse into our great day in the mountains...enjoy!
The kids loved climbing out on the falling trunks, and Kyle was more than willing to stand out there with them for a little support.
A man in his natural environment doing the one thing he loves the most - cast the line in hope of that perfect fish!
Molly giving her daddy some love atop a trunk that she found a way to climb onto all by herself.
They actually stood still long enough and looked right at me at the same time to capture this picture. Although, it is not the best smile for either of them - I look at it and smile real big because I know what is behind those smiles!
A "Molly" captured picture of our guys from the ground looking up at them. I think she did a great job, and love this one.
A quick lesson for Jack on how to "stand" in the river so that one does not get swept down the river - keep your legs apart, knees bent, and move one foot at a time.
Molly's own styling of her hat and sunglasses before we headed out on the river. She would have worn this all day had I not corrected it so that her ears were in fact covered and protected!

Looks like you ALL had a fun day! Kyle got new waders, huh?! We can tell by the big grin on his face. The one shot of Kyle in the river looks like "a river runs through it".
