Friends and Fishin

This morning the kiddos and I went to meet up with some of my previous coworkers. We all worked together about 5 years ago and have enjoyed staying in touch. This was the first time we had gotten to meet my friend K's newest son from Haiti. After seeing pictures of him over their two year referral process it was exciting to finally get to meet him in person! It's amazing how much he is like his older brother who was adopted domestically in the US. They were like two peas in a pod! Here are some of the kiddos helping to fill up the bird feeder at K's house.

AP had fun playing with little D from Haiti.

We picnicked with our friends before we left.

Then we headed to the marina to hang out with Boompa and Baba on their boat. C got his very first fishing pole and tackle box a few weeks ago and he has been really excited about getting to learn to fish. The worms were very interesting!


Daddy showed C how bait the hook and cast the line. Then they waited...


and waited....


and waited...

and looked a little closer to see what was going wrong...

and waited some more...


and finally caught a fish!


Then another!


The kiddos got in a little swim time while we were there, too.



We topped it off with dinner at the marina. It was a great afternoon with Boompa and Baba!
