Grassy

This weekend we went to Grassy lake to get some fishing and camping in.  It was beautiful and the weather was awesome.  I was a little nervous on the narrow road to get up to the lake, but we made it with no problems and found a great camping spot.  Saturday night my mom and Gary came up and had dinner and S'mores with us and Sunday Derk and Debbie came and enjoyed the day with us.  The kids loved fishing so we spent hours by the water.  Rory bought a little paddle raft to fish in and Connor ended up catching 3 or 4 fish from the raft with his dad and grandpa Derk.  Kinlee and Matthew had their fake fishing poles but didn't seem to notice they weren't really casting anything into the water.  They mostly threw rocks in the water and ate Swedish Fish (that Kinlee was sure she caught in the lake).  They were terrified of the fish when they were reeled in and not in the water.  Matthew would hide behind Kadee and refused to touch one no matter how we tried to convince him.  Kinlee was fine with watching but didn't want to hold one.  She reeled in the 2 biggest fish we caught and was very excited about that.  On Saturday we drove down to Joe's Valley and Rory convinced Connor and Kadee to jump in the Cottonwood river with him.  It was freezing, but they loved it and jumped in (to Rory of course) over and over again.
