Family Mellmann

I think every store should have a place like this for kids to hang out.

Ahhh. The life of a Fish Mom...is that right? Baseball Mom, Soccer Mom...Fish Mom. Yep, that's me.  It's a far cry from Scuba Mom, but I'll take it.

Patrick puts his hook in the water for the first time this season. Yes, he's wearing a winter coat, and yes, I'm behind the camera wrapped in a double layer fleece blanket in the sun. It's Spring Break and we've tried to do something fun and/or outside (it's been a rainy week) every day. Today, we fish.

Patrick didn't have school today (since it's Good Friday) so he had a play date with two of his buddies. They built a hunting lodge with the "kinder cabin" materials that Jörg and Patrick made last summer.
