Father and Sons Campout

Ever since Miles was barely a year old Joey's taken him on a father and son's camp out every May. This was their third time going. Joey's Dad always goes too and usually so does his older brother and nephew!

This year they went out to Carr Canyon. Miles was so excited! Did the excitement wear off by the time this picture was snapped? ;) I heard the breakfast burritos were great!

(There's lots of kid's Miles' age in our ward. Here's two of his buds! P.S. hope you don't mind I'm using your picture Lynette!)

Emily said...: That is so cool! Tom wanted to take Tommy for the first time this year and ended up driving around for 7 hours trying to find and never did. He got home at midnight-it was a nightmare. He's still looking forward to next year though. Joey's a great dad!; May 14, 2009 at 1:39 PM

The Boring Family said...: Brian may never get to go on a Father and Son's campout. They should have some kind of daddy-daughter thing, too! Glad the boys had fun (and I'm sure you enjoyed a break, too!)!; May 17, 2009 at 6:14 AM

Quotes 2016

Clay was jumping from tile to tile in our kitchen, then kind of spinning on each tile, careful to stay within the square shape of each tile. I asked, "What are you doing?" and Clay responded, "I'm square dancing!"

Clay, said every time he prays: "Help us to be like the Gospel."

Clay, said another time he prayed for each person in our family that they could "do good" in either school or work when he got to me he said: "...Please bless mom that she can go to the gym." I guess that sticks out to him!

We were walking into Wells Fargo when Paige saw a man with shoulder length hair and a beard getting into his car. I was holding Paige and she grabbed my face and turns my head toward the man. Then she says, "Mom, there's Jesus!" (November 2016)

Paige: "I look like nursery!" She said this as she looked at herself in the mirror after I got her dressed for church and had just finished doing her hair. (March 2017)

"remembery" -Clay (Memory) October 2017

Joey, asking Paige: "Should I grow a prickly beard or shave and have soft cheeks?"

Paige, jumping up and down answers: "A sparkly beard!" (September 2017)

"Jew-zi-knee bread" - Paige (zucchini bread) (September 2017)

In school Miles was learning about the Great Depression. He was talking on and on about it to me and started talking about Herbert Hoover and Franklin Roosevelt. He was trying to tell me about the president known as FDR (Roosevelt) but instead he kept saying, "KFC" I couldn't figure out what he meant until he said, "You know, he was president after Hoover, everybody called him KFC". I had to explain he was actually known as FDR! (October 2017)
