Father and Sons Camp out

 This past weekend the boys all headed up to Patapsco State Park for the annual Father and Sons Camp out. They were lucky and got to have Brown Papa join them on the big night. They started out with a fun dinner at the local Arby's, Yes we go all out for these events.
 After dinner they picked up Papa and headed over (about 4 miles) to the State park. They set up camp and enjoyed the company of the other ward members that were there. They had fun playing baseball and catching a football.
 Trent and the boys were able to sleep out in the tent, we only have a 2 man tent. Time for an upgrade. So poor Papa had to spend the night in a makeshift bed in the back of our mini-van.
 The next morning of course the kids woke up at the crack of dawn. They had a pancake breakfast. Trent, Papa, and the boys set out on an adventure to go fishing. First they fished on the river and then headed over to a nearby lake.
 Trent got skunked.. Papa and the boys caught quite a few. Brock was really excited to catch a "dead" fish. He caught it and then it died. Papa took it home to eat. Pierce liked when they found a "boxer" turtle. But didn't get to see its head, because it was hiding from them. Do you blame it?
 As you can tell they had a great time together and was just what they needed. They can hardly wait until next year.
 Maybe by then they will have a bigger tent? These boys sure do love their Daddy.

Two things I love: 1) their buzz cuts. Cute? Yes, please. and 2) that Alma was still sporting the tag.
