The Father and Son Outing

Brendan and Neil were able to go to their first Father and Son Outing during this past week. I think that they had fun. Eliza and I sure did :0)

The Outing was on some property of our old Branch President. Some people pitched tents and spent the night, but Neil and Brendan came home after the evening's festivities. The night before the Father and Son, Brendan screamed uncontrollably for about an hour (it couldn't have been because he drank 1/2 of Neil's 44oz. slurpee for dinner). Neil told me that he didn't want to have to deal with that by himself in a tent. The way that Neil deals about things like that at home is just sleep through it...but he figured he would have to wake up if the screaming was only 2 feet from his ear. So we elected to not spend the night in a tent. They played games together and had fun with the men from the Branch and then came home to a nice bed. I don't know if Brendan will let Neil have the easy way out (coming home early) when he grows up a little bit more. He loves the outdoors too much.
