First Canoe Ride

This weekend, we went camping at Payne Lake in the Talladega National Forest. We were about 20 minutes from the Pate's house and enjoyed getting to hang out with them around the campfire Friday night.

Despite the cold temperatures and a heater failure in our camper, the girls and Derick managed to have a good time. I was freezing.

Last weekend, we brought my dad's canoe back to Prattville and this camping trip was the perfect chance for some fishing. Each girl got two rides with dad--the first time they had ever been in a canoe. No fish were caught, but nobody got dumped into the water, either!

Did anyone notice the matching PFDs?
