I decided that 2015 is the year of mostly saying yes. One of the main reasons I am doing this is because I want to be more adventurous and not control everything in my sight. So far, it's been okay but I could do better. It's only February so I am not going to sweat it too much.
This weekend I DEFINITELY went outside of my comfort zone. Y'all, I went ice fishing! One of my best friends, Melissa, and her husband, Marty, live right outside of Minneapolis. They are the sweetest couple and are so cute together. Marty's family has a cabin about 3 hours away and they invited us to crash at their awesome place. It was adorable and something that I want to have one day as a family getaway.

I honestly did not not know what to expect and came with an open mind and open heart. The guys left the cabin to set up around noon on Friday and took awhile to get ready. Keep in mind that it was super cold, probably in the lower twenties but they did their thing. They picked us up around 3 in their 4-wheelers to go fishing!
The guys set up a couple of spots in the lake that had a rod which was attached to a flag. If the flag lifts up, then you had a fish on the hook. As luck would have it, a flag was raised as soon as we got there! Everyone was nice enough to let me drag that thing out of the water. I kept dragging that fish, waiting to get cut by the line because I didn't have gloves on but finally the fish jumped out! Unfortunately, it was too small and we had to throw it back in. And by we, I mean Marty.
The weekend was full of making memories, laughter, cooking, Uptown Funk, 90s music, and playing chandelier. This was one of the coolest things I have ever done and can't wait to do it again. I am lucky to have great friends.
Until the next adventure, gators!
