Memorial Weekend Fishing Trip

We went up to Sublett Reservoir for opening fishing weekend- a Rigby family tradition! The weather didn't cooperate, so we didn't even take our tent, but we "camped out" at Grandma and Grandpa's house and went to the reservoir every time it quit raining. It was super nice on Saturday, not too bad on Sunday, and a little wet on Monday.

Bundled up and ready to go play camping!

The catch of the morning! Jenna's was 17" and Michael's was 18" and Steve's was about 15" Nice German Brown Trout that Dad Thornbrue enjoyed eating this week!

"Guishy!" As Brennan put it.

"A Caterpillar! A Caterpillar!" Quite the popular item, the fuzzy brown and black caterpillar named "Cade the Caterpillar" narrowly escaped with his life, thanks to nap time and Aunt Jenna releasing him back into the wild. Both boys sure loved him though!

So much fun! Cade crashed at naptime. One of the great things about camping 15 minutes away from home is that naptime and the first sign of rain and we headed home... well, hot showers every day are nice too!Cade got a four wheeler ride with Daddy!

Brennan "fishing" in the creek with a willow stick. Uncle Justin actually caught a fish with his hands out of the creek! About an hour after this picture was taken, Brennan was back playing by the creek watching Grandpa Rigby stash the mess of fish in the creek that were caught that afternoon down on the reservoir and all of a sudden we hear a big splash, look over, and see Grandpa pulling Brennan out of the water by his collar. Luckily we were all within 3 steps of him and had a blanket and new clothes and he didn't swallow any water.

Here's Brennan drying off and getting warm by the campfire and waiting for dry clothes. Poor little kid. The next day as we were going up to the reservoir he kept saying "Fell into the water! Fell into the water!" Maybe he'll stay back from water from now on!

Grandma and Grandpa Rigby with a zonked out baby girl-- I had her in the baby carrier when Brennan fell in the creek and I unsnapped her as fast as I could and handed her off to Uncle Brock so I could save my 2 year old baby. Thanks Grandpa Rigby for fishing Brennan out so fast!
