Fish Stories...

...with pictures to prove! That's just a little one...

.. and that's a monster Bass!

All in good fun though. Notice that they both have big smiles to show just how exciting "the catch" was. A little competition between father and son; mixed with humor, good laughs and certainly a little bit of love.

It's been a long time since Shane has been to a Father's & Son's campout with his Dad. Some how he managed to talk his Dad into it this year (camping's a bit rougher as an adult than it is as a child). Shane took our two boys along too and they loved every minute of it! They all came back safe and happy, so it was a success!

Monster Jam and Snow Day

It was very, very noisy, but everybody came prepared. Maddox had his on earphones and Shane provided all the rest of us with a set.

One of the many action shots. Sorry about the "blurry" picture. I need a fine camera like Travis has so I capture these types of pictures with more quality. This was "Bounty Hunter.:\"

Maddox gettin autograph from "Bounty Hunter." He is signing a picture of the truck that Shane had printed from the computer before we left.

Peyton and Logan also getting autograph from "Bounty Hunter"

What an awesome scenary forMarch in the deep south!! Enlarge the picture to get a real feel for the type of snow we were experiencing.

Not to be outdone, when Shane told me he was getting his 4 wheeler out, I had to do the same.
