Camping in April

These kids really take up a lot off your free time.  All of this have proved to make free time and blog updates slim and lets all be real, it is always how you manage your time, and I have not been managing it very well.  I
Sierra is really starting to smile and even laugh occasionally.  She is so adorable it is hard to put into words.
It is rare when the weather is so nice in April.  With nice weather like that I thought it was time for some man time in the mountains.  Brenda was nice enough to bring the boys down to Heyburn State Park and then decided to leave the boys with me for the night.  The weather was perfect for camping and pretty good for fishing.
Matthew was amazed at the big trees around the campsite.  James was given a pocket knife a few weeks before (I dulled it up for safety reasons) and he loved to site next to the fire and whittle some sticks.  It was priceless.
The next day we went fishing with a co-worker and his kid.  The boys did great given the fact we did not catch a fish for the first 4 hours.  Matthew eventually got his first fish and was excited to catch this perch.
Back at the house and it is spring and that means we have to plant and start up the normal yard work.  Matthew and James are quite the helpers. 
These two are normal brothers.  They can be so nice to each other at times and then they can be so mean the next.  Most of the time they are pretty good though and it is priceless being around them and watching them grow up.
Nothing like another ride along helper to rototill the garden.  Both of the boys needed turns and of course had to wear their cowboy hats.
