Fathers/Sons & Mother/Daughter

 Friday afternoon Mike took Cameron and Corban to Kolob Reservoir to go fishing before heading to Grafton for the annual Fathers and Sons activity. The lake was choppy due to the wind and it was a little cool too, so they didn't stay long.
 Trevon met them at Grafton where they chased lizards, had stick sword fights and Cameron caught a toad. There was a big sand pile and a bunch of younger kids were playing on it. Trevon decided to play King of the Sand Hill - daring them to knock him off of it. It was fun for a while and they eventually knocked him down, covering him with sand. Someone even told him to "eat this" while throwing sand in his face. He ended up with sand in his pockets, but I think he enjoyed playing with the boys.
They had a dinner of steak, cheesy potatoes, green beans, hamburgers and hot dogs. They also had homemade rootbeer and brownies. After a short program around the campfire, they went to bed around 10p.m.
The next morning, they ate pancakes, bacon, eggs, and leftover cheesy potatoes for breakfast, with orange juice and milk. Then they headed down to the river to throw rocks and check it out before packing up and heading home.


 While the boys were having their fun, the girls had a mother daughter night (Friday) at the church. My mom stopped for a quick visit and was able to go with us to the activity.
It was great having my mom with us for the night. She and I spent most of our time tying a quilt. The girls ate pizza and rootbeer floats. There were different activities to participate in: volleyball, a parachute, painting nails, quilting, making a picture frame, and a little train that Elise rode in countless times.
 
 Oh, I have to include the Karaoke - we sang "It's My Party" on the Karaoke Machine.


 
 Then, went home and watched "Sister Act" before calling it a night. Thanks for having some fun with us, Mom!
