A Fish Tale

I took hundreds of pictures while we were in NY--and was just sorting through them last night and had to share these! The girls were excited to go fishing in the pond with my parents! Amelie has been fishing with both of her grandfathers a few times but this was Maeve's first big trip!! 
Walking to the pond:

Waiting *im*patiently for Pop to bait the hooks.
Happily and contentedly *fishing*.

Joyfully fishing.
And then! Maeve had a bite and we reeled it in and it was sooo exciting until....
THE SCARIEST FISH IN THE WORLD CAME OUT OF THE WATER.
EEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
We told her we were fishing--but I suppose she didn't really understand what was going on and when that fish came out--WOW. She was terrified!!
Amelie, meanwhile, caught a fish at the same time--so happy! Proud! Elated!
While not 3 feet away, the world was ending, the sky was falling, the terrible scary fish was still being terrible and scary!!
And Amelie....happy. Still.
Tee hee! So funny the difference in sisters! =)

I'm so glad you captured "the event" with pictures. What a memory!
