Campout and B-Day

This last weekend was my Dad’s wards “Father and Son’s Outing,” and Nathan, Brennan, and I went with him, as well as Steven, Aaron, Joshua, and Jason (Cousins and Uncle). It was a lot of fun. The kids favorite thing to do was play with the fire. What is it about fire that keeps them so entertained while keeping adults on the edge of our seats? I remember loving fire as a kid as well but I am sure my parents would agree that I was much more careful and responsible at that age than my kids are, so I am sure they did not have any stressJ. Despite the “Flaming Marshmallows” and the “Roasted Cactus on a Stick” we survived and had a great time. My Dad enjoyed giving the grandkids rides on the four wheeler and being the camp “Chef”. We were going to have a whole roasted pig for dinner but that is a whole different story.

Some of these pictures are from Brennan’s celebrated B-Day party. We celebrated a couple of days early because I am going to be out of town on his actual B-Day. He is growing up so fast! He is potty Trained now and always reminds us that he is “growing big like dad”. What a wonderful kid! Time goes by so fast.
