Father Son

May 12, 2012 Mother's Day Weekend.
The relationship between Willie and Parker is priceless.  Parker adores his dad so much.  Just this morning Willie checked the weather to see what kind of clothing he should wear for the day.  Slightly chilly in the morning but nice in the afternoon.  Pants and a t-shirt.  He got dressed.  Parker ran to his closet and picked out his outfit for the day, long sleeved shirt and shorts.  He came running back out into the kitchen to show his dad what he was wearing.
Willie recently introduced Parker to game-cast.  Something that I don't appreciate very well.  Parker loves to sit on the computer and watch where the baseball has been pitched and he's learning about strikes and balls.  He will run in whenever a ball has been thrown and tell us the new update, or it will be when there is a new score.  Parker is a game-cast addict.
Now on to the Father/Son Camp-out.  Just before Mother's day the boys gave me some time off by going camping with their dear ol' dad.  They went to a boy scout camp this year.  Little did I realize the kind of place scouts go.  No privacy for the restrooms and you can just pick a spot on the ground for your tent.  Our previous camping experiences we have had a designated spot where your tent goes.  I kept Henry with me for the night based on our previous camping trip the week before.  Henry likes to be helpful but sometimes he's just hard to keep track of.  I don't know much of what really happened on this night except that they enjoyed some store-bought cookies, the fire, and playing in the water near the bathrooms.

 There was a lake that they traveled to as well but we may need to find someone with pictures of that adventure.  Perhaps some photos to come later.
