Fishin' should always end with a Ta-Da!

Lots of pictures, so beware!

We spent the long weekend at the lake with my mom. Scott's family joined us on Memorial Day, per tradition; as always, we had a blast!

Ella Beth was so excited to try out her princess fishing poll. (I hear princesses and fish go well together!)

See what I mean...Ella Beth caught this fish ON HER OWN! Scott wasn't even next to her when she was reeling it in!

She was tickled beyond measure! She was so proud, and she talked about this "really big fish" all day. :)

Daddy was pretty proud, too!

Landon was still a little sleepy after he woke up. Didn't expect to have so many people and so much water all around either.

The pool water was a little chilly for his tastes at the beginning of the day.

The two sweetest cousins I've ever seen.

This picture just cracks me up. Landon is looking for food, Ella Beth is talking, Kaitlin is smiling, and Hayden is crying. Love it!

Scott was nice to play in the pool with Ella Beth. She loved anyone who would join her!

Landon warmed up to the pool (once the pool warmed up for him), and he played for about an hour. He had so much fun splashing and throwing his toys out. Mommy got a work-out throwing them back in!

The day ended with smiles all around. Glad I captured this cute one. :)

Ella Beth had her Gymnastics Jubilee last weekend. She absolutely l-o-v-e-s gymnastics! She talked about her jubilee all week. I am just tickled to death at how much she has come out of her shell within the last year. She puts it on thick when she's in her element!

Ella Beth was waiting in line for her turn to jump her heart out. Here she is turning around to make sure we're watching. Don't worry, sweet girl, we saw every second!

Ta-da! Love this girl!!!

OK, so enough pictures already, right?!?! Maybe not. ;)
