Well, not too much has been going on at our house. Troy is working at Merlin's now with Fred delivering tv's all over creation. He still works at Gringo's a couple nights a week. It keeps him pretty busy but most days he enjoys it. I'm back in school. I'm excited to finally be starting into my major classes. It's amazing how much more interesting school is when you start learning the things you signed up to learn.  

We have a new joey at our house. It's a boy! He's so sweet. I just love having the joeys around. It's so fun to watch them grow. I never got to have baby animals around growing up and so now they just fascinate me. 

This was just a fun picture of Jelli and Icarus. They come out at night and leave their baby in the cage so they can play. 

When Troy's dad Leon found out I'd never caught a fish in my life, he offered to take us. On Labor day we went to Teton river.

The crew just before we got started: Troy, me, Leon, Nolan

Leon's fish- pretty good!

Troy caught a couple fish. This is one of them.

We all caught a few but let most of them go. These are the ones we kept and toted around the whole morning. Aren't fish disgusting? I hate them.

Ok, everyone has their fishing stories, and now I have one and I'm so excited. I caught a fish my first cast, a smallish one, then another one we let go. Then I didn't catch any and moved down river where I still didn't catch any. Then Leon came down river, but a new worm on my hook (I couldn't get the hang of it for the life of me. And it was so nasty I just couldn't) And he said "you better brace your feet because this is it, you're gonna catch a huge one". So I cast twice, and the third time I looked at him and said "Ok, this is it" I cast and caught the biggest fish of the day! It was 17 1/2 inches long. It was so exciting. (this was the good picture after I made all sorts of faces at how gross it was, but I was still way excited) After a few more hours of fishing we built a fire and cooked most of them right there on the bank. I hate fish, but this tasted soooo good. Thanks Leon for taking us!
