Get Outdoors Challenge

Image and video hosting by TinyPic


We're playing in the Great Outdoor Challenge with 5OrangePotatoes and good thing, too. President Obama began an initiative to get families outside today.

We got to ride "Captain Tiny's" duck boat that was featured on Undercover Boss. 


We had a picnic on top of a very, very large rock.


Momma Snail got a new pink fishing pole, that lights up in the dark. Big Snail got one, too! 



(Sorry to my Vegan friends) Little Snail caught 2 fish and Big Snail caught 16! Now that fishing season is here, we will be out on the lake A LOT. Did you know that if you are in Georgia, you can participate in free (or almost free) fishing events for kids? Like this fun rodeo

If you hate fishing, how about having some Earth Day Fun at your local state park? Don't live in Georgia, visit the State Park website for your own state. 

{more outdoor fun and photos to come! we're busy playing outside right now}

The very large rock picnic. Stone Mtn! ;-) Another GA girl here. We have a state park about 10 minutes from us. I camped there as a kid and have taken my kids. Plus there is fishing, hiking, bike trails, paddle boats and lots of picnic tables. We love it.

Totally dig the pink fishing pole. I've always had a black one. :(

Oh My Goodness!! I love the pink fishing rod/reel combo!! My little girl would LOVE that. I am just a bit north of you in Tennessee and visit GA often. Can't wait to get out this weekend.
Thanks for sharing.

Yes Yes despite our recent bug issues, which all happened inside mind you... (Feel free to read our weekly wrap up) . ;) We will venture outdoors. I think I commented about the Parks doing free activities this coming week. I hope everyone checks them out!
WE LOVE THE PINK FISHING POLE AND THE SEMI-PINK FISH!!

Looks like a lot of fun! My girls have been fishing since they were one. They are actually better fisherwoman than their momma! I enjoy reading under a tree while they fish w/ Dad.
