3rd Generation. . .

. . . Fisherman!
His Pop is a Bass Fisherman, his Daddy prefers the fly rod, but one thing is crystal clear. . . Vaughn shares the same love of slimy critters, rods and reels, and the excitement of "Reelin' in a Whopper!"
Do we have plenty of bait?

Daddy says "Yes" so we're off to the pond!

They say I'm a natural! I caught a fish on my very first cast!

Learning how to hold my fish. . . so he doesn't stick me.

Cast that line!



Another fish!

Can I hold him, Daddy?


Here's another fish, but what I REALLY want to get my hands on is that bobber!
*Kiss* *Kiss* - Learning to appreciate ALL God's creatures.


For those of you who didn't know. . . Fishing is HARD work!


Showing another fish a little bit of LOVE!

Waiting patiently. . .




Tired of waiting patiently. . .


Vaughn's first fishing trip with Daddy and Pop was a HUGE success! I am sure there are many more trips just like this that V can look forward to!

Who needs a beach. . .

. . .when Daddy can build you a sandbox?! We wanted to build V a sandbox for his birthday and due to rainy/cold weather on the weekends, we are just now getting around to it! Vaughn also took his first ride in the wheelbarrow, and it was definitely a hit!
1.5 tons of sand ought to fill 'er up!

Two fisted shoveling. . .

Up close and personal with the sand is much better. . . . think I'll just cop a squat here and get serious!

I take my sand very seriously.


More sand, Daddy?! What a lucky boy I am!


These last three pictures are just "more of the same" but I think they are really cute. He's concentrating so hard in the first two. . .



. . . and these sort of profile shots are some of my FAVORITES!
