Camping at the Marsh Post 1



Last week our family fully enjoyed a 4 day break in the rain and soaked up every minute of this lovely spring weather!
The Sheboygan County Marsh is just lovely this time of year, and best yet, the fishing is amazing!
We camped for 4 days and every minute was filled up with happiness.
Thank you Lord for this beautiful gift.

the girls spent the first few hours just sketching and coloring, calming down after the flurry of packing and setting up camp


fishing!!!!

so excited


Little Miss Hannah proved to be our fishing champion!
Over 3 days, she caught 21 fish!
Better yet, she set up her own rod, baited her hooks, took the fish off, and released them, ALL BY HERSELF.
She even shared her time to help the other girls and boys when they weren't too sure of touching those slimy things.
Yay for success!!


delighted!


we all especially enjoyed David's fun company on this trip too

Theo still doesn't LOVE fishing, but he did like it better than last year!

Miles was capable and successful too!


Eli is thrilled!!!
Celene and Abbie excited with their catch

Celene was squeamish about touching her fish at first...


But she got over it and successfully started releasing her fish too


Dad only got a few minutes to fish himself here and there...but he was rewarded for his patience with this nice northern pike


beautiful cloudy morning and apple blossoms

David got a big northern too!

and Theo got really excited about his nice rock bass


Shawn's everlasting patience put to the test with 11 kids fishing!

can we go fishing now Dad?
