Fishing with Poppy

We spent an afternoon fishing off of the 14th street pier in Fernandina with Dad and had a blast!  It was warm, but the wind made it a little more chilly than normal.  We caught 3 baby sharks (and threw them back of course)!!  Landon was the official 'shrimp man' and helped Poppy pick out the best bait for each cast.  Elle had fun helping Poppy reel in one of the sharks too!  We made a really nice memory that day!

Ready to start our day of fishing!
                                                
 Landon and Elle giving each other smooches.
 Big hug for Poppy!
 They loved to play this game where they would go on each side of the flag pole and give each other a kiss...too cute.
 Landon was a bit nervous at first to help Poppy with the shrimp, but after 1 time of picking one out, he was a great little helper! He would say, "Do you need another Trimp Poppy!?"  His pronunciation was too cute when he said Shrimp.
 How ironic, but we saw a submarine going out for a deployment while we were fishing...brought back a lot of tough memories for me when Paul would leave for deployments.  But, it was still a beautiful sight to see.
Singing the "Fishy, where are you, bite my hook' song.  :)
 Landon was so excited to reel in his first fish!
 There goes the sub!
 Big helper!
 But, it wasn't a fish!  It was a shark!
 Wow!
 Oh the anticipation...
 Shrimp man standing by!
 Cutie pie.
 He's so handsome!
 Posing for Momma.
 Patiently waiting for the next fish to bite!
 We had a great day!
 The next bite, Elle helped Poppy reel it in!
 Wow, another shark!!
 Landon asked if he could touch it's tail.
 By this point, Landon loved pulling out shrimp for Poppy.  He even was brave enough to grab one even when we didn't need one...he would just throw them off of the pier and tell us he was trying to get the fish to come to us haha.
 What a brave little man!
 Here comes fish number 3...but it turned out to be another shark!
 So happy!
 These last few shots are too cute and I had to put them all on the blog...Elle was modeling for me and I of course was taking as many pics as I could!
 So sweet!
 Love her little pony tail.
 Hi Momma!
 What a beauty.
 A few more to come!
 Fishing and modeling...great combo.  :)
We had the BEST day fishing with Dad!  Look forward to our next fishing outing!
