It Was More Than Just Fishing



Robert, Delany and I went to Lake Afton last Sunday.  It was our first time, as a couple/family, that we were at the lake together.  I can say that there will be many more trips...with higher SPF sunscreen for some of us...I won't name names! 
This day will hold a very special place in my heart for all time for many reasons:

1. Delaney drove us there and drove me to the bathroom, without complaint, the umpteenth time I had to go.
2. Robert loves the lake as much as I do and we share many of the same memories growing up.
3. We cooked hot dogs on the grill and Robert burnt mine just the way I like them.
4. I had smore's.
5. Robert helped his daughter fish and it was more than just fishing.
6. Robert started a fire to light the grill with the cigarette lighter of his truck because I forgot to pack a lighter.  I now call him Robmacgyver.
7. Robert caught a fish and let me take credit for it to take a pic and send to my sister to prove that I can hold a fishing pole AND knew which end was up!
8. I laid in my lawn chair and sunbathed and read a book and Robert never asked me to lift a finger.
9.  He understands that Princess's don't do slimy.
10.  Delaney put some type of creepy fish thing on my chair when I had gotten up.  I tried not to squeal like a girl.
11.  I didn't puke when Robert was putting liver and worms on their fishing hooks.
12.  Robert and I realized we both love strawberry Twizzlers. 
13.  Robert tans and I burn.
14.  I miss my Grandma Alta and it was hard for me not to cry.  Although she would be extremely disappointed that I turned into a girly girl...but I can still do minnows!
15. Robert and I were able to relax and remember exactly why we fell in love.
16.  Delaney had a good time and wants to go back often.
17.  Robert was sexy casting and reeling his fishing pole.
18.  Robert made me laugh so hard when every time he would sit down he would have to jump back up again to grab his pole.  Then as soon as he would get up the fish would leave the pole alone.  This went on the four plus hours we were there.
19. Said fish that was messing with Robert was finally caught.  The fish was missing an eyeball when we finally got done with the photo shoot.
20. Did I mention I had smore's?
