Staycation

This summer is apparently the year of our great American "staycation." (Meaning: we're staying put for the time being.) Here are a few photo highlights from our staycation thus far.




The girls enjoyed splashing around on our putting-green-sized lawn last week.




Russ took Madeleine and Elodie fishing last weekend. (Don't get too thrilled by our outdoor skills just yet. It's one of those places where the pond is stocked and the fish basically jump on your hook. However, I have to give Russ credit for gutting the fish.)

The girls caught fish right away, but they refused to eat it. Their loss, as it really wasn't too bad.

Congrats to Russ on gutting the fish....I don't think I could do it! :)

He gives all of the credit to being an Eagle Scout.

If the fish tasted good probably the cook should take some credit. The girls are so cute in their swimming suits. I am watching for rock climbing photos.

I can't believe Madeleine is holding a fish like that and that you have blond hair.
