Fish

So....Kaden has been talking about how he wants a pet fish, a gold fish to be specific. And they just happened to have a booth at Railroad Days where you could win your very own gold fish. So of course we let Kaden play. And of course he won himself a fish. YAY!! Now what the hell do we do with this thing? He didn't even come in a bowl, just a Ziploc bag.  Kaden named him George.

We managed to keep him alive in his little bag the rest of the time we were there and stopped at Petco on our way home to get him some sort of tank and some fish food. He seemed to like his new little home, but we thought he needed a friend. So the next day when we went back to Railroad Days we let Kaden play the game again to try to win him a "friend". And he did, he named this one Jake.

He told us that George was going to be so happy to have a friend. He also told us that they needed a toy. So we stopped at Petco again on our way home. We decided they needed a toy, a plant, and some rocks. After all of that, they needed a new tank with a pump and hell lets just throw in another fish too. Kaden named this one Nemo. So $60+ later, we have a nice fish tank and 3 fish. Thanks a lot $1 fish game!

And by that evening they had all died. Yep, sleeping with the fishes. Poor George, he had made it a whole day and was just fine until we brought all this new crap home.
So Chris ran out, had our water tested and brought home 3 new *almost* identical fish and Kaden never knew they were gone. We have had these 3 fish for a week and they are still kicking. YAY!!
