After the dinner on Friday night, the boys of the family left discreetly one at a time to meet in the foyer of the church to hop in the truck and head for the mountains for the 2nd weekend in a row for Don and go camping after he offered the suggestion during the week. The idea was to send Matthew (Don youngest brother who moved to Vegas last Spring with his family to go to graduate PT school at UNLV) ahead with his family to pitch the tents. The idea was for Don and the boys to drive up with the dirtbikes after the dinner so that the next morning they could play in the dust for a while. Now after last Saturday's camp out Don got sick and had to stay home on Sunday from church and Monday from work because he was miserable. So guess what? Even though he is not feeling at the top of his form, he is still going up to keep his promise. I'm not crazy, every time I've gone camping and it's not in the 50s at least at night, I freeze and I'm miserable.

Nathan on the morning of his 10th birthday. Looking just as small as ever, but then good things do often come in small packages.
Thomas likes to play with sticks and fire a lot. My son?! Yep, I'm just as much of a pyromaniac, except it's ok to be one now because I'm a grown up; before that, I would hear, "you'll pee your bed if you play with matches!!!"
Joseph did get cold.
Uncle Matthew cooking breakfast with aunt Cassie looking on., and cousin Brecklyn is wandering around and baby Riley is enjoying the clean air before the dust gets stirred up.

you are so lucky to be able to go camping. I got a new calling, I am the ward Girls Camp DIRECTOR. not just helping, I am in charge. I am excited. they had to move up the dates so we could still come down when we want to. p.s. did you get my message about my sunglasses? I will pay you back. Tim wouldn't turn around to get them (even though we were only about 2 miles away) and I really need them.
