One fish, two fish, red white and blue fish!

Tonight we went to a July 4th Extravaganza that was put on by the company my dad works for. It was held at Sun City in SC. We had a great time! They cooked hamburgers and hot dogs along with many different sides for dinner. They also had ice cream and cotton candy for the kids. They told everyone to bring there fishing poles because there was a pond and you could fish if you wanted to. My mom and I thought that it would be fun to see how Zachary liked fishing, so we ran by Walmart and picked up a fishing rod for him. We found him a Lighting McQueen Rod. We also bought the cheapest hook they had (we weren't thinking we were going to catch anything). Well..... little did we know! We took Zachary down to the pond and we threw the line out in the water a few times. He would take the fishing rod and reel it back in ( he was pretty good at this). After the third time we told him just one more time because we had to go back to our chairs so we could watch the fireworks. We threw the line out one last time, Zachary tried to reel it back in but something kept pulling it back in the water. We thought that it was nothing at first until my dad took the fishing rod and slowly reeled it in and this is what was on the other end!
