The Fisherman

Claire was invited to a birthday party one Saturday morning, so while I took her to the party, Will, Robert & Granddaddy had a "Man Day" complete with a trip to Cabela's, lunch at Frank's Bait & Taco, and fishing at a catfish tank.  Will was really proud of his catch!

The place will clean the fish for you, and Robert said Will was really upset when they took his "gray fish" away and was not impressed with its condition after they brought it back.

We cooked it the next night, and we all enjoyed eating Will's gray fish.

Fiesta 2013

If you live in San Antonio, April means it's time for Fiesta!  We didn't attend any "official" events, but we made it to our favorite - the school parade.  Claire had a new float this year - her "Disney princess mermaid" float.  She picked out the decorations for her float and directed the base assembly before finishing it off herself.  Will requested farm animals.  Robert and I did most of the decorating for him, and he managed to disassemble quite a bit of it while waiting for his turn in the parade.  :)

After Will spotted us, he had no interest in walking the parade by himself, so I walked with him in my post-workout glory.  :)
