It warms my heart to see and hear the dads and sons worshiping God together.Wesley wanted to take the stomp rocket on the camping trip.
It was a big hit with the kids.
He played briefly at the playground.
Wesley was more into roasting the marshmallows and eating the s'mores than last summer.
Chris said that about 10 PM Wesley said he was tired and wanted to go to bed. He had trouble falling asleep and stayed awake until about 11:30. He was wide awake at 6:15 the next morning. Father and son both took a nap on Saturday.The boys had fun throwing rocks in the lake.
Prior to going down to the lake the dads did individual devotionals with their sons. The man seen reading in this photo had printed out the devotions for the dads. He read the creation story from Genesis to the entire group. This was a wonderful opportunity and beautiful spot to talk about God's creation. 
I am so glad that Chris and Wesley got to spend some specail time together this weekend. I think Chris will start taking Lydia on the Father/Daughter campout next year.

It sounded like a great time - Mike would have loved to have come but it didn't work with our schedule. I had to chuckle at the last pic - during the devotional, celebrating God's creation, is Nate texting! LOL
That looks like a really special time for the parents and kids. How wonderful to get to spend that kind of time together.
What a neat weekend! That is a huge group o' kids to take camping. I love that they did devotionals together!
SO COOL! Wish we had something like that at church, but my hubs has something like this through his work.
