Father's and Son's

Last night was our wards Father's and Sons camp out. This year it was held at Piramid Lake at a place called the Willows. Both Eric and Josh went this year with Jason and from all the pictures and floods of stories I take it they had a good time except for a little crowd camping close by that was very rowdy all night, but other than that the boys had a really good time, watching soap being made and building rockets and canoing on the lake. They also had fun playing with all the boys from our ward and the Wildcreek ward. I'm so glad that my husband sees the benefits of camping with his boys. I think that as they keep doing it their relationships will grow so much closer as two sons and their father should be.

 This guy was from the other ward but taught the boys how to make soap from scratch. Jason said the lesson lasted about an hour and Josh was the only kid who sat and watched the entire presentation. 

I think Josh has a thing for chemistry and science.

Jason says this was towards the end of the lesson as you can see it's pretty much just Josh left.

 Look at that smile. Josh standing with his soap.

which by the way smells really bad.

 Apparently Eric tried to sample every beverage at breakfast and was happy with none of them.

 While Josh was busy with his soap lesson Eric and Jason built the rocket.

 Kjar brother team work!

 This was taken just before donning some Life jackets and going canoing.

And while the boys were busy doing that the girls did this to our toes.

I look forward to joining Jason and the kids for a family camping trip soon.
