Fishing, blueberries and ice cream!
Saturday was a pretty relaxing day for us. Tom and the boys went fishing in the catch-and-release pond in the campground, while I caught up on reading blogs and posting on ours. When I finished, Casey and I joined them at the pond. Bryce was having great luck, while Nicolas was struggling a bit, but they were both having fun.Then, Nicolas started catching a few also, and things got even better. Bryce ended up with a count of 20 fish caught (not sure how many were repeats -- LOL), and Nicolas snagged 8!
When they ran out of worms, and Casey tired of trying to catch the little fishies herself, we headed back to the camper for lunch, and then to the pool for the afternoon. After a few hours at the pool, we had burgers and corn for dinner followed by samores at the fire . . . and an ealier night!
On Sunday, we went to 9:30 mass at St. Basil in South Haven, and then stopped off at Speedway to fill up the truck for the ride home, and at Wally World to pick up some milk, bread and cereal. Back at the campground, we headed to the pool with our friends where Tom and the boys, along with a half dozen other men and boys, enjoyed a rowdy game of "keep-away" with a little water ball -- it kept them entertained for over 2 hours, and surprisingly didn't bother any of the other swimmers! Later in the afternoon, we all decided to go pick blueberries at a local farm.
The boys love blueberries and had a blast picking them -- and eating them! The four of us picked a total of 9 lbs. of blueberries -- I guess I'll be freezing a few when we get home! We couldn't compare to our friends though -- with each of their families picking almost 16 lbs. each!After blueberry picking, we stopped at a local dairy down the road to have ice cream cones -- the line when we arrived was unbelievable!
Once we had our cones, we could understand why the line was so long -- YUM!!
That pretty much filled us up for the day, so we opted not to cook dinner, and instead had pizza pies and hot dogs on the fire. We stayed out at the fire for awhile, but not too late. Bryce got marshmallow in his hair, so he and I left to go back to our camper and wash it out -- LOL.
