Levi's 1st Big Fishing Trip

Levi got to go on his first big fishing trip with his dad, Grandpa Sherwood, and Uncle Daniel. They went to Lake Powell. They set out Friday morning early hoping to get some good fishing in. The plan was to get to fish the evening and then camp somewhere for the night. Then head out early Saturday morning and fish ALL day. Well everything didn't go according to plan. When they got there the winds were REALLY bad. But they decided to try and go out anyway.(with my baby boy in the boat) Soon after they got on the water, they ALL decided that it wasn't a very smart idea! Dusty said he was just holding on to Levi with a death grip and planning in his mind what he would do if the boat started to sink or got turned over. YES it was that bad. He said the waves were 3 times the size the fishing boat they were in and they were all soaked and they were freezing. So he just tried to keep Levi warm. All the men said Levi was a trooper and never complained. His teeth were just chattering the whole time. Luckily they made it into shore ALIVE with a boat and then they headed to find a hotel where they could warm up and get some good sleep. So all the fisherman were up and ready to try again at 4am. It was a great day. And fun was had by all. All the men were prepared to just hand Levi their rods when they had caught something to let him feel like he had caught a fish. BUT THAT WASN'T NEEDED. He did catch about 10 fish and ALL by himself. Dusty said he would cast and reel in the fish all by himself. Every time he would say, "I caught one!" They would all be like ok?? Then he would reel it in. They even let him drive the boat. Dusty came home and couldn't help but be proud of his son. He also said he was so glad they went and were able to spend this QUALITY time together. This is what life's all about!!!
