1st Trip to Mille Lacs

I finally got Harvey out fishing.

After almost 9 years of working for him.

After a little lesson on working the rod and what a bite will feel like,

not even after 2 min of his line hitting the bottom.

He looks at me and says, "Now what do I do."

His first Mille Lacs walleye was 21 1/2in tagged walleye.

5 min after Harvey caught his fish,

I caught a 22 incher.

Double

Big fish of the day.

Brought home 6 walleyes and the perch.

The Girls!!!

Riley and Oakley napping in moms chair.

Riley is 15 months old and is the best big sister.
She loves to play with Oakley.

Oakley is 12 weeks old.

It has been so much fun to have

two dogs playing around the house.

This picture looks so much like Riley did as a puppy.

Not the best picture but here is a size difference.

It is really hard to get them to sit still by each other.

Oakley loves to nap on her back.

Helping dad fill up the dog food.

Eating out of the bag.

Okay, my turn.

Oakley is 9 weeks old and has been really fun.

The potty training isn't going the greatest but she has her name

down so we will get there. Shane is going to start training this week.

Riley and Oakley chewing on a some chewies.

Napping in the pillows on the couch.

Oakley loves to sleep on her back and get her belly rubbed.

This is pretty much what the girls do all the time.

They love to wrestle around.

It is so much fun to watch.

More wrestling around.

Our new addition, Oakley was born April 4, 2009.

Riley and Oakley in grandma's backyard.

On the ride home from SD, all Oakley wanted to do was lay by Riley.

This picture of Oakley looks just like Riley as a puppy.

They are sisters, they have the same father.

After the long day and drive back home both the girls were pretty tired.

Today napping in our backyard. Riley kept resting her head on Oakley.

This first morning we had her all she wanted to do was lay in Justin's duffel bag.

Shane and Carson giving her the first bath.

All bundled up after bath time.

We are having alot of fun with her and Riley.

Riley is coming around at first she was not so sure about her.

It has been fun watching them get to know each other.

New Car!!!!!!

Shane and I just got home from purchasing a new car.
