Fish Sharkin

Yeah, I know...that's how Dakota says it though so I had to share. We showed up at the beach and she told Kristi, "we're gonna go fish sharkin Mrs. Kristi." We had brought our own poles but after remembering that we needed to get fishing licenses, we decided to leave it to the boys this time. Andy and Jakub (aka Dakota's "boys" as she calls them) are K9 handlers with Mark. We spent the evening at the beach on base just relaxing and watching them real in sharks. Mr. Andy let Dakota real one of his in and it was so cute to watch. She started getting a little impatient towards the end but loved seeing the little guy once she got him in. Here are a few pics from our night. We grilled hot dogs on the bonfire (thanks to Kristi LOL), layed out under the stars and just had a relaxing time. Dakota spent most of her time down by the poles with the guys...picking up sea shells, chasing crabs and drawing in the sand. She truly loves being at the water. Bodee-man had a great time too as he loves to be outside. About 9:00 or so, he fell asleep in his carseat and didn't make another peep. You can bet we will have many more nights like these when dad gets home.

Here is Dakota's first look at the shark. She decided she would just touch it instead of holding it.

Here is Dakota with Andy realing in her first Shark. The waves made it tough but she was very patient...surprisingly lol.

Here he is...

Both Jake and Andy caught one at the same time...Dakota got to watch them put the two sharks together so they could kiss :)The girls were getting hungry and the guys weren't willing to put down their poles just yet...Kristi decided she would get the charcoals lit...boy did she. Bodee kept staring at the flames.
