Labor Day 2010

On Labor Day we went over to the Brammer's house around lunch time. Grandpa wanted to take Kolton fishing. Kolton was SO excited! He'd never been fishing or really ever watched anyone fish so I'm not sure how much he understood about the concept of fishing but he was excited nonetheless! He just kept asking and begging to go!
We got there and we got some corn to use as bait and headed down to the creek. Grandpa helped him with the pole and actually catching the fish. They kept trying to look for the big fish and put the bait close so they could catch it.

Kolton almost caught this frog. He was probably an inch away from grabbing it when it jumped away.

We moved to a new spot after no luck at the first and he caught a fish real quick! Brady helped him reel it in and he was beyond excited!

He couldn't wait to show me so I could take a picture!

Grandpa took it off the hook so he could hold it but Kolton just laughed and squealed and stared. He wasn't interested in holding it but he did enjoy looking at it!


He couldn't wait to do it again! Grandpa was able to help him catch another one but a turtle came up behind it as they were reeling it in and ate the fish right off the hook. You can see the fish (mixed in a stick) and then a turtle's head. It was crazy!

After fishing we rode the go-kart. A lot. He rode it several times for a long time! He loves that thing! He loves to do jumps with it and go "up and down."




I have an awesome video of him riding on there but I can't get it to load. :( After this we hung out with the Foys and helped move some more things in to their house and make it more homey. :) It was good to have Brady home on a holiday!

First of all, I hope this finally works!
What a fun day! I love all the expressions on Kolton's face as he is experiencing the different thrills of the day! Jeff also looks so happy watching his grandson have so much fun with him :-)
