Fathers and Sons

May 14th and 15th was our stake Father's and Sons camp out. Every year, the boys look forward to this event. Here in Connecticut, it has been rained out for three of the last four years. This year was questionable, but because the threat was just for the evening, the camp out was on!
Phil loaded the car to the top, as usual. And I teased him about it, as usual. But I appreciate that he would rather be over-prepared than under-prepared.
The boys had a blast playing all evening. Then came the thunder storm! It poured on them. We only live 5 miles or so from the campsite, and we didn't get a drop at the house, but they got dumped on. The thunder and lightning were incredible, even at our house. By morning the storm had cleared, and the kids enjoyed a zipline that was set up for them.




All three boys loved being with their friends. And being in the great outdoors camping. With no girls around. Oh, and it was fun to be with Dad, too.

Looks like you guys are having a good time!
Just so you know, our fathers and sons outing was accompanied by rain as well. My boys all ended up sleeping in the van:)
