Fishing with the Boys



A day after Adam and I got back to New York, we took the kids and went to a cabin for five days.  It was a beautiful cabin near the Platte river, and about a half hour from Breckenridge.  We played games and sat in a hot tub (more about that later),  and Adam took the boys fishing - Peter went spin fishing by himself with Adam, and then Adam took the older boys fly fishing.  We also celebrated Tommy's birthday early - which he thought was "AWESOME!"  
For the fly fishing trip, we bought the boys some waders and boots so that they could wade the river with their dad.  They had a great time together, although it it was cold and snowing horizontally for part of the time.  The rest of us hung around for a while, but soon hunkered down in the truck.  But the boys loved it, and asked to go again the next day.  Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures of Peter's fishing trip, but he was pretty bummed he didn't have a fly rod.  We hope he will be ready for it next year, so he can join in!

"COOOLD!"
