Spring Break: Fishing Festival

Assistant blogger Little Robby:

We went to a fishing festival at Tempe Kiwanis Park on March 15th about 10am. We went to a little registration booth. I guy there gave us Easter baskets filled with miscellaneous stuff like a mini-fan, fishing lures, bobbers, Easter eggs, etc. Below, Miss Photogenic with her new sunglasses:

Then the man told us to go to the next booth. There we got a paper; we were supposed to go to the other booths and get it stamped. Once we got them all stamped, we came back. Then he gave us a coupon for a free hamburger at Outback Steakhouse. (They were catering there.)

Yummy hamburgers!


After that, we went to borrow some fishing poles. You could go catch fish in a tank or the lake.


Here's Jenna trying to catch a fish.

The tent Jenna was fishing in.

Then we went over to the mobile tent area where they were giving away prizes. There was one guy who had an iguana. It was as long as his leg. You can only see its head here.

I won a Lego Exo-force Aero Booster. At first, they tried to give me a very mean-looking Pirates of the Caribbean guy. Then they held out a purple bat-and-ball to me. Then I pointed to the Lego set and they handed it to me. The announcer guy made some comment like, "Some of the parents in this crowd are teaching good negotiation skills."

Mom's reaction when she saw my Lego set.

The main bot (sorry it's sideways).


The whole thing.

It was really fun. Jenna caught a fish but we couldn't get a picture of it.
