Fishing... and the Fair

Addiction: to devote or surrender (oneself) to something habitually or obsessively

Our children are learning the meaning of this word - one advantage of being back in Cache County - we can go fishing every night! We were able to go to Logan or Blacksmith Fork rivers every night this week. The fishing wasn't great but the kids had a good time. Evan cries when we let the fish go and Issac asks me about 15 times a day if we can go fishing so I guess we've got our children sharing our addiction.
We decided to go redneck (bait) fishing yesterday so we could let the kids actually catch some fish. The had fun with them. We finally had to kill this one and put it out of it's misery. Issac then proceeded to put it in his backpack and take it home. Death apparently means nothing to him - he told me as he went to bed that he and 'Fishy' were going to play again in the morning.


We also went to the County Fair on Thursday to let the kids see the animals. It was during a heavy downpour so we got soaked but they had fun. Amazingly enough we made it home without a bunny, a chick, a goat, or any other farm creature as a new pet.

Family Pictures


Ok Payne Family -- I know pictures were taken a LONG time ago but I finally have them to post. I've tried to narrow it down to a few so tell me your favorites and I'll go get them printed.


Tell me the numbers of the ones you like.
Also, the pictures are public right now and I'm really not cool with that so look and let me know so I can change them back to private.

Here we go...

We're joining the blog craze. We've moved to Logan and want to find a way to keep in contact with everyone so here it is. Hopefully I'll be able to keep it up to date.

We are currently in the process of buying a new house in Nibley. We are very excited and should close on it next week. We HOPE this is the last house we buy for a very long time. The basement isn't finished and the lot is a 2/3 acre lot so we should be busy with either yard work or the basement for quite some time.




That little spec in the middle is our house. This picture was taken from the back corner of the yard... Like I said, plenty of yard work awaits!
There will be more later I'm sure -- just wanted to try to get the blog started!
