The Fishing Hole

Prineville is just one of those places. When you're there you always find yourself relaxing and enjoying the beauty of the outdoors. For Xander's 6th birthday we took him to the local fishing pond made just for kids. He had such a wonderful time! And he even caught his first fish.

Our sweet niece Ava.
Our sweet niece Claire.
Our (hmm, he probably doesn't want to be called sweet) awesome nephew Jorden.
Caden trying out fishing...he fished for about 2 minutes and then spent the rest of the time running around.

Xander's first fish!

The look of joy on a little boy's face after catching his first fish. We (as in Jory and Don) even took it home, gutted it, filleted it, and it's ready to eat!
