All Things Pink and Sparkly

Last weekend my husband took a weekend to go fishing with the guys.  He doesn't do this very often so I highly encourage it when the opportunity presents itself.  And that's why, even though he is not much of a fisherman, he jetted off to Oklahoma to go spoonbill fishing.  Neither one of us really knew what a spoonbill was or how you fish for them.  Imagine my surprise when he texted me this picture on Saturday

So that's what a spoonbill is!!  Each of the three guys caught four of these huge fish.  You catch them by "snagging"  which is basically dragging a fishing line with a bunch of hooks on it through the water hoping you'll "snag" one of these big puppies.  They can only keep one fish each according to state law and the state cleans them for you because they harvest the caviar for themselves.  Works out for everyone:)  I'll have to update this post after we have a fish fry and let you know how they taste, although I have heard they aren't very good.  I'm sure the guys will be walking around with their chests puffed up that day though because they actually caught our supper for us.  And before you get to feeling too sorry for me, the kids and I spent the night at my parent's house.  The girls got to play with their cousins and Baby Bubba got Grammy and Auntie snuggles.  I got some much needed girltalk with my mom and sister.
