Had a good weekend...

I had a great weekend! Yia and Nyaab Yia came to town on Thursday. I took a half day vacation to take them to the beach and crabbing. We went out to lunch and then stopped by Fred Meyer’s to finish up last minute crabbing supply shopping. There was traffic jam on our there and the reason why it took us longer than usual. Normally takes 2 hours but it took 3 hours! It wasn’t bad because we talked a lot.

Arrived in Lincoln City and played at the beach shore for a bit. The kids absolutely loved it! Booboo for sure didn’t want to leave but we had to because it was getting late and we needed to head out to our next destination. Stopped by another Fred Meyer’s again to buy crabbing license and grab some food. We weren’t so lucky but still got some small crabs! We were there until 1am. Got home around 3:30am and the hubby said he wants to take us salmon fishing at Columbia River. Although we were all so tired, we washed up and packed (NO SLEEP) and jumped into his truck and went fishing. Went to Cascade locks and had no luck. After 5 hours of nothing, we loaded the boat and went to the Columbia River. We were hopeless after being out the whole day and nothing is biting. The hubby and Yia were thinking out loud that we will be packing up soon. Surely after 30 minutes something bites!! I think the hubby pulled it and reeled in and then he gave it to Yia to reeled and guess what? SALMON!!! I was sleeping at the time and heard that they got something so I woke up immediately and starting looking for my digital camera and started filming. I woke up drunken and filmed. It was the happiest moment! We were all so excited! So we packed up and came home. The hubby and Yia said they wanted to go back Sunday to try and fish some more. We were all so dead tired by the time we got home. We washed up and started cooking the crabs and the salmon. It was yummy! Cleaned up and went to sleep because we have to get up early and get ready for another day of fishing.

Got up Sunday morning around 7am and went to Best Baguette store. I picked up some yummy Vietnamese sandwiches, came home and cooked breakfast so we can eat breakfast on the boat. This is time we weren’t so lucky. We were out all day and caught nothing! I repeat, NOTHING! Oh well, better luck next time. Came home and ordered pizza and talked for an hour with Yia and Nyaab Yia and they went back to Thai and Em’s place. Finally called it night! TIRED... ***yawning**
