double deuces

i got to hang out with these ladies on my birthday AND eat sweet potato pancakes.

delicious conversation and awesome food;)

thanks girls!

on the drive home my mom warned me that hannah dropped my cake. i asked if it was edible- she said edible, but not legible. it's a hamburger. i love meat? also, you can't really tell, but there are real sesame seeds on top and the candles are matches.

they really went all out for me this year. but seriously, my family is the best.

meet the fishin sisters

here we are.

we love to fish.

this is our dock.

our first attempt was uh, ummm... well, interesting. we went down with our CHEAP fishing pole, pizza crust, marshmallow, and carrots for bait. we didn't have a weight for our line so as people passed they could see our incompetence- our human food floating on top of the water. we didn't catch any fish that day... BUT our second trip to the pier we met this young lad and his "paw-paw" they hooked us up with a rig, a weight and squid for bait.

is he not the cutest little fisherman you've ever seen?

before our third attempt at fishing we went to the tackle shop and picked up some squid, which the croaker really love. then we went down to the pier and fished. that day we caught 4 fish, a crab and a oyster toad. we were the only people fishing because it was rainy and cold, but we didn't care- we had the time of our lives

cutest fishersister i've ever seen.

now we are professional fishersistergirlfriends- we go almost everyday. we still have our CHEAP fishing pole, which surprisingly has allowed us to catch lots of fish. after we catch the fish we name it and then throw it back to it's home. i think eventually we'll bring some home for dinner, but i'm not sure mom is ready for a bucket of fish in her house yet.
