father's day love

Daddy was spoiled with breakfast and a day filled with his favorite hobby (or one of the twenty favorites)...Fishing.

Madison enjoyed all the outdoor time and daddy got some quality time at Eleven Mile Reservoir and Rampart Reservoir.  We had not planned on two different locations but in the afternoon, around 2:00 we were evacuated!  Yes, evacuated!  This came only days before the fire in Colorado Springs. 

This was around 11:00.  The smoke caught both Ben and I's attention right away.  We kept saying, "that wasn't there when we got here right?" 

The wind caught these little pigtails and wow!  Sticking straight up!


Daddy tickling Madison with a rubber worm.  She was so grossed out.  Then, found out it was not going to eat her and started playing with it.


And this was a real worm!!  Mommy stop making me touch it!!

This is when we were evacuated the size.  What a difference 3-4 hours makes!  The fire is now under control but of course the after effect is still being managed.

Already got this fishing down!

Ironically enough the only fish caught at the reservoirs was while Madison was sitting and playing with the pole.  Unfortunately due to this little person Daddy wasn't able to bring it in...Bummer!  We still had a great time hanging out in the sun and enjoying some water between our toes.
