Day: May 3, 2010

My brother Michael got up at the crack of dawn to get us all a spot on the pier for fishing. Nadia was very excited at the chance to catch a fish. My brother got her all set up and she didn’t catch anything the first 2 times, but the  3rd time she got it! Here she is concentrating and trying to figure out how the fishing rod works.

Here Michael is helping her reel in the catch.

And a happy girl with her first fish!

After posing for the photo Nadia said, “Can he go back to his home now?” So my brother tossed him back in and Nadia was so happy!

Nadia started Sunday off with 2 breakfasts again and then we headed to the beach. My brother and cousins Matt and Jeff were already there and set up for fishing (separate post coming). This was our first chance to meet Jeff’s wife Ashley and their daughter Laura. Laura is 3 months older than Nadia and so they had a great time playing on the beach. Building sand castles and looking for shells.

Then it was time for lunch and a nap. That afternoon we went to my Uncle Gary and Aunt Debbie’s house for a visit and then back to Nonni’s for pizza and a movie. YUM!
