In the De Haan gene pool there is a natural selection for one to love fishing. I remember getting night crawlers before a fishing trip picking them out with a flashlight after watering. I loved even more having my dad wake me up early in the morning when it was still dark out and taking off for a lake. I enjoyed everything about it. I'm certain that somewhere along the way that gene died off...but its been found in Cole. He loves that fact that he has two grandpa's that love to take him out. I found a few photo's of cole going ice fishing last year...I even found a picture of Grandpa Bill with Cole so you can see their faces. Cole is looking forward to going out on the boat with Grandpa DeHaan next! Here you go!
The 24th was a riot! We shared it with the Jameson's and Markey's. Dinner went flawlessly with rib eye Steaks and smoked ribs. As usual we had enough food to feed the entire neighborhood. Unfortuantely no pictures of the feast, but here are a few of the night time firework celebration (Click on the Pictures and it should give a larger view).
