Fishing at Jackson Lake
For Memorial Day weekend we all stayed home expect for Jason he went to Lagoon on friday with the junior class for work (boy life is rough sometimes). Adam and Emily left Addalee, Jacob and Erick with us while they went to state soccer. We had a total of 9 kids here (never a dull moment). Corey and Cole were sick with colds and fevers. They both slept most of the weekend. Saturday Jason and Tyler went to Jackson Lake fishing while the rest of us stayed home and got nice and sunburned especially poor Erick since I missed a sunscreen application for him when all the kids decided to put on swimsuits. Addalee had a bike accident and hurt her hand Emily took her to the Doctor later that week and they did an X-ray. Addalee's hand was okay (thank goodness). So the weekend was full of excitement. I was expecting someone to show up with a straight jacket and take me a way to a nice quiet room somewhere but it never happened. Instead, sunday Adam and Emily picked up there kids. And over all it was not so bad we had lots of fun with the other Afton Isaacsons and everyone survived with minimal wounds . Monday was our free family day (no extra kids) and we were all needing a break from the house So off to Jackson Lake and Yellowstone we went. Tons of Fun! A much needed break. We took a cooler full of food and started off on our excursion around 5:00 a.m. that morning. The kids had a blast fishing and throwing rocks at Jackson Lake. Corey, Tyler and Jared all caught fish. Here are the picture of our Trip. ( I know it surprising to see more fishing pictures on this blog)
This was the first fish caught this day by Jared.

(Peek-a-boo Abbie) We found this cool old dead tree
right above where we were fishing.
Corey's fish did not want to hold still. I thought it made for a cool picture.
Tyler is not excited at all.
Jason setting up a pole for one of the kids.
Abbie is pretty happy about this trip.
Abbie being serious
Jared's fish. He couldn't put it down and wanted to keep holding it sometimes I feel sorry for the poor fish that find their way into the little Isaacson's hands
Cole loved the rocks.

Dad fishing with his girls.
Lyndie cried a lot ( I know surprising) she wanted to walk around but kept loosing her balance on the big rocks that covered the ground. But when she was in Dad's arms with the fishing pole the tears stopped magically. 
Lyndie did not love trying to walk on these big rocks. She tripped into the lake face first almost immediately and things just went down hill for her from then on out. She got her face and an arm up to the shoulder wet when she tripped. Mom had to save her.
Corey and his stash of lures trying to pick the perfect one to catch that big fish.
Cole fishing patiently.
