Father and Son campout

It's that time of year again. Our ward's annual father/son campout. It's always the Friday night/Saturday before Mother's Day. They must think we need some kind of break! :) I know our boys look forward to it all year long and the closer it gets - the more excited they are. Waking them this morning for school was a piece of cake! They were all ready for school in less than half the time it normally takes them!

Boys are funny creatures.

Our campout is postponed this year due to a Regional day of service tomorrow. I'm so sad about it. The girls and I had so much fun last year. And the boys had lots of fun getting rained on. I hope you enjoy your Mother's Day weekend.

Wow, so early in the year. But then we do ours in September, so I don't know what's better. :)

I think this was in 2004. It was Nephi's first trip to the beach. The boys were all so little! My have they grown.

Meet the Parents...Russell and Candace
It all started for us when Russell left for Cape Town South Africa on a mission. Candace felt inspired to write him - so she did! We wrote for 3 1/2 years. Candace came home from her mission to the Texas Houston East Mission and we dated for 5 months. We married in July 1994 and have been happy ever after!
