Sam Killed A Bald Eagle With His Bare Hands

If anyone knows my bebe, you know he LOVES to be outside.
so this labor day weekend we went to the mountains! this is what happens when daddy takes off his shirt.

we usually stay in panguitch, but we were much too slow on the whole planning thing and ended up staying in duck creek.

it was nice to fish and explore somewhere new

mommy and buddy played on the shore while daddy fished.

see look daddy's over there

we walked

and walked

then figured it was time to get a little dirty

have you ever seen a cuter boy?

good stance bud

here comes sammy,

he picked me some wild flowers

:swoon:

:)

and here is the biggest trout he has ever caught in a stream

buddy got to kiss it!

(he kisses everything!)

here fishy, fishy, fishy

here fishy fishy fishy

sammy went out to catch a few more fish

while he was out fishing the stream

some super nice game wardens came by

and asked to see our fishing license

being the law bidding citizens that we are

we had our $64 fishing licenses handy.

a few minutes later sammy comes walking back with

the super trooper
and tells me to please stay by the car

because we are getting a ticket!

a ticket for what you ask?...

"unlawful taking/possession of protected wildlife - fish"

"unlawful taking/possession of protected wildlife - fish - live bait"

apparently in the swell stream we were fishing in

one is not allowed to fish with live bait, i.e. worms

and one is not allowed to keep any fish that is over 15 inches long

deputy dewey let us off with a firm warning for fishing with worms!!!!

gave us a ticket for our huge fish

and took it!

we have to call the state of utah within the next 14 days and they will decided what the fine will be

(where are we in mexico?)

hopefully i won't have to bake sammy a cake with a file in it.

he took our dead fish.

hope he choked on the bones during dinner

(you know dang well he went home and smoked that fish)



bye fishy, fishy, fishy

kissing the elk at the cowboy smokehouse

(he is gonna be super upset one day when he learns that daddy and grandpa shoot them)

on the way home we stopped in cal-ranch

it's kinda like a walmart meets basspro meets a feed store meets a trailer park

do you think i could convince anyone that jack is a girl?

just in case we need to go into hiding

since my husband is a protected wildlife killer?

ride em cowboy

we don't take too kindly to your kinda folk roun' her'.

well, all wells that ends well.

sunday we went back to our peaceful meadow in panguitch

where you can fish with all the worms you'd like

sammy caught some very nice trout

and he also caught the back of a RAV

in the back of his head.

he was loading up the car and there were gale force winds out that day

the back of the RAV door slammed right into his head,

brought him to his knees.

so we got some great pictures,

an egg on the back of sam's head

a nice little fine

a stolen fish

and some amazing memories with my two favorite boys

happy labor day ya'all
