Breakfast on Friday went much smoother than the previous day. I brought French Toast and had made my egg mixture at home so I just had to dip and cook. Easy and delicious. After getting everyone ready again, we made our way to Butterfly Lake. When we arrived, Emmett had fallen asleep so I volunteered to stay in the car and let him sleep while the others went to find a fishing spot. They
ended up staying close by since the lake was pretty busy. I sat and enjoyed the sun and quiet while I watched for Julie and Coop coming in and out of view as they took a walk around the lake.
Once Emmett woke up I took him down and tried throwing a line in a few times, but quickly gave in because I was having no luck, and due to the spot we were in, I kept getting hung up in the trees. If I did get a line in, Dee thought he was funny and would throw his across mine and drag it in along with his. I didn't stand a chance, but it was still a beautiful day and place. Maddi however was able to catch her first fish there. Like Jake, she didn't want to touch it, so we got the best picture we could as it flipped water everywhere and sent it back into the water.
After Grandma had taken two trips around the lake with grandkids, we packed up and headed back to camp. A few of us went down the highway to get some more ice (and ice cream cones, don't tell the others.)
For dinner Kelsea made scones that we used for navajo tacos and then topped with some raspberry honey butter for dessert. They were so good! I lost count of how many Jason had, I'm just glad he resisted the urge to drink the honey butter straight from the bottle.
After dinner, Julie and I stayed with the big kids and baby while the others went back to the pond to fish.
We had just got out the marshmallows as the came back, so we all ate s'mores, then went to bed after some chatting around the fire.
