Labor Day at Anderson Ranch Reservoir


We had an incredible fishing trip today. Doug's sister Kathy and Kiera (our new niece who is 8 months old) flew in from Wisconsin today. They got in the car with Doug's parents, youngest sister and fiance heading to Anderson Ranch Reservoir. The salmon were running and it was a sight to see.

We had gotten Jayden his own Cars fishing pole. He was so excited but had to wait to use it until after we had a nice picnic lunch of hotdogs and sandwiches. Everyone headed down to the creek and cast there poles. I was busy watching and taking pictures. Jayden lasted a long time for a four year old boy but he quickly let me know he wanted to play with baby Kiera. Jayden loves babies and he had so much fun making Kiera smile.

Ethan was netting his fish (which had to legally be put back), he loved it! Kimberly and Doug were in hog heaven. We kept 8 fish total which we hurried home to Margaret's (Doug's mom's) to cook up and eat.

Doug has decided this needs to be a tradition. The last Labor day we did this was 4 years ago when Jayden was a babe in arms. It was really a perfect day and one that I think everyone would enjoy repeating.
