Put on your Adventure Hat kids!

This summer I decided to get "Adventure Hats" for the kids. I figure maybe they'll actually wear them if they have an awesome name, and if they're always associated with something outdoor/adventure-ish. The first time I recall taking them out was at Panguitch Lake. I decided to give Mike some "real" fishing time (no kids) and took the kids geocaching for a spell. It was a good idea of mine, because he actually caught a pretty decent fish while we were gone.

Whoa! There's a waterfall at Panguitch Lake, I never knew. I love geocaching!Then it was the kids turn for some fishing! It was pretty windy, so I set up a mini tent for shelter and the kids and I watched their poles from there. We didn't catch any fish, unless you consider a 40 pounder by the name of Adelyn a fish. She got hooked, and in trying to pull it out, got the barb caught very deep. Mike pushed the hook the rest of the way through to her skin and cut the barb off so it would come out cleanly. Adelyn was VERY brave, and I was very faint. As scary as it was for all of us to see the hook so completely stuck in her skin, it ended up being something I look back on with fondness because of all the things I learned about Adelyn that day. She is my amazing girl!
