This year's trip was fun filled with family, fly fishing, and a bunch of "firsts" for the kids. We headed up to the family house in West Yellowstone for a week of relaxation in July. I must say that Barb and Steve were fantastic hosts again and we got our well needed rest and family time we had been looking forward to. Blake learned how to walk and Tyler learned how to fish. Which is more important? Well, it depends on who you ask. My luck at fly fishing increased this year as well. Last year it took me 3 days to catch just one little fish. This year, on day one, I caught 2 fish and day two I caught 6 fish (more than Andy even though he said, "I didn't know we were competing."). We also saw some animals...3 moose, Andy saw a bear, lots of elk, and of course buffalo. Here are some pics from this year's trip.

Relaxing with Daddy on the dock.
Fishing on the Firehole River. I am told this is a world famous fishing spot. Here is my first fish of the trip. It was very exciting. In the background (you probably cannot see it) there are 2 elk and an elk calf just by the river.
Day 2 I brought in 6 trout! Woo hoo!
The anglers! We sure are dressed the part...
Tyler and Bepa waiting for a big fish.
We rode bikes through the neighborhood, too. Tyler is doing really well on his bike.
We visited Old Faithful. Blake was fascinated by the water shooting in the air.
The family...
Mema and Bepa with the kids.
The kiddos...too stinking cute!
We picnicked in the park and Tyler played in the dirt with some of his new friends.
He was very busy digging.
