Since Josh's birthday is on July 8th and Dylan's is on the 25th, they usually have a big joint celebration. This year it was at John's Incredible Pizza in Riverside. The boys decided that they wanted to go fishing for their birthdays, so Jacob planned a fishing trip to Irvine Lake immediately following their birthday party. So, for their birthdays I got them tackle boxes loaded with all kinds fishing gear and a couple cartons of night crawler worms as bait. Here's a couple of sweet pictures from their party.
I love how Josh is looking at Nancy! He loves the silly faces she makes to keep him entertained!
The party was a little bittersweet because the end of July not only signals their birthdays, but also their return to China for the year. We just try really hard to make every moment count.
Anyhow, after leaving the pizza place, we all headed to Lake Irvine. We had some crazy toll road drama, but eventually we all made it there and picked a spot on the far side of the lake.
We used garlic flavored shrimp as bait and it smelled disgusting!
Jacob helped the boys get set up!
I love fishing, but I hadn't originally planned on going fishing, so I wasn't exactly dressed for the occasion. It was a beautiful day out on the lake!
This was Nancy's first time fishing! It took some convincing, on my part, to get her to try it, but once she did, she rocked it!
Sweet Dyl with his fishing rod!
Look at that gorgeous sunset and that precious little boy!
The moon was also enormous and incredibly bright! You can't really tell how huge it was from this picture, but its reflection in the water was beautiful as well!
So pretty!
By the end of the night, no one had caught any fish, but we definitely had a great time together!
