Another ice-fishing trip...

Yesterday we went to Ashton's last basketball game (I'll post about that later), then decided to load the boys up and take them ice fishing again. They weren't happy at first because they just love to stay at home and play, but then they warmed up to the idea and were excited to go.
It was SO nice to get out of the horrible inversion that we have here in Cache Valley. In the past few years it seems like it hasn't started till January and now it's already bad in the middle of December. It is so cold and ugly! And so interesting how you can drive a few miles north or south and find beautiful blue skies & FRESH air!
 We went up to Deep Creek in Idaho a few miles out of Weston. We fished from about noon until 5:00 and caught 11 or 12 fish, so it was a fun day!
There was also a fun sledding hill, so the boys had a blast doing that for awhile too.
I hooked this one and let Ashton reel it in...the biggest fish of the day!
I went to take a picture of Lars with one of the ones he caught and it jumped out of his hand and landed right back in the hole!
This has become such a fun winter family activity for us...love it!
