I think I got one!
We went fishing yesterday afternoon. I hadn't been fishing since I was little and back then it was out of a pond and not for anything big. So there were five of us in the boat and it was pretty cold and I was starting to get bored just sitting there freezing holding on to a pole (which was illegal for me to be doing anyway I guess since you need a fishing license). So after a few hours of silently hoping they would say we were leaving, something started grabbing at my pole. I just yelled out I think i might have something and they started laughing because it was pretty obvious that I did have something considering that my pole was bent. So I start pulling on this fish and trying to reel it in. Let me tell you it's stressful cause those fish are pretty freakin strong! They are all telling me how to reel this in and the net is ready to pull it out and the stupid thing bites through the line!!! Honestly I was slightly relieved considering how much work that was. Fishy was putting up a hell of a fight! So now i'm not so cold anymore and am excited because I almost got my first fish and they all kept saying it would have been a big one. Now i'm feeling like a pro because i think i understand now how to get one out of the water. So I wait and wait and wait and then, 30 mins later, it happens again. This time I feel more prepared and I'm pulling Nemo (that was my name for them all) out of the water and I actually saw the fish this time and it was BIG! Then it bit my line again and swam away. This was fine though because apparently it wasn't anything I did, i guess they have sharp teeth. It was a northern pike and it was pretty. I wouldn't have kept it anyway that's too sad but I really wanted my picture taken with it so then I could have posted it on here as proof that I might be decent at atleast one sport. oh well, there's always next time and i'm ready to go again! I think I need my own pole. maybe pink and glittery!!!..:)

My little prissy girl....a fisherwoman!! I don't believe it! Good luck next time. I want to see a picture to make sure you aren't telling fish stories!!! Love, Mom
Dear God woman, you crack me up with your fish stories! Well hell, I think you "got one". Or one got you! Yeah, Chucky got one, you biter! The biting the line must be a parable(SP?). Anyhow, that story is so cool, I can imagine almost being there, I would have peed my pants if i had seen that.
Now, of course, Stacy's playing some hard core 80's, check out the song from "Stigmata", by Ministry. You'll love the "Grudge" sound effects..Ha.
Alright boys and girls, we love ya'll..!
Love you, Robert and Stacy..

Northen Pike are evil, they know your soul when they nibble on your line...think positive!
