Gone Fishin!

Written by Micaela. Filed Under summer, thoughts 

Kent and I both have every Tuesday off of work together and we always try to do something fun and interesting. Now that it’s summer, this usually involves going to the beach. Last week we met a fisherman at the beach and decided that this week we would go fishing too. Kent has loved fishing since he was young, and I learned what I know from him when we worked & lived at a summer resort two years ago. In fact, the day we started dating was the day that he taught me to fish and I caught one in the first two minutes (good way to impress a fishing guru, I definitely recommend it!) A few of our friends wanted to take pictures of me kissing the fish because this is what you are supposed to do the first time you catch a fish. So I did, but in all the excitement I got the fish hook stuck in my hair! I was so scared that it was going to get stuck in my head (fish hooks are scary scary objects) that I didn’t want to move, so Kent, always calm under pressure, got it out for me. Good way to impress a girl who is afraid she is going to puncture a hole in her skull! Here are some pictures of our day on the river, and see it was a successful day!

My summer is continuing along splendidly, and I still have lots of things to look forward to and quite possibly blog about! Speaking of which… I am considering getting my own blog but I am not sure how it will work for the whole “five blondes” thing. I have always had my own blog (that I eventually grow tired of and delete!) and I just find that I am far more motivated to write in it and post pictures and love it when it’s my own. Maybe I could post the entries in both blogs or write special blogs for fiveblondes.com.

Here is one last picture, Katelyn took it of me after we went for dinner at Kent’s restaurant on Saturday night. After that, I had my first “party” at my apartment! Okay, so it was very very very spur of the moment, and on a Saturday night in July, that means that not many people can make it, but I still had lots of fun and I hope everyone else did too. Note the Lauren Conrad braids I have been sporting (and loving) the last few weeks!

    It’s not just you! I swear I did everything right but they still don’t work so I’m counting on Katelyn or Erica to fix it this morning!

    Now you just need to learn how to do the braids yourself Mic! Just do what I did and decide to try them in your own hair one day. I did that at school last year, and I had never even done a french braid before!

    It seems like everyone learns at school. Good thing I’m going back to school!

    if you happen to have a spare horse around they’re good for practicing french braids on. i learned on my horse’s tail, then just braided my own hair all the time while watching tv until i was really good at it. and i’m actually better at doing my own than doing others! i believe in you!

    I am TRYING to learn how to french braid my bangs to the side, instead of having my mom do it. It takes a few trys now, but I am getting better.
    LC totally has the summer hair thing down.
    Or at least, her hairdresser does.
    LOL
