1st Overnight Backpack Trip

Armstrong and Kevin went on their first overnight backpack trip this weekend. Armstrong had to carry his own food, water and clothing in his backpack (so did Kevin). Aaron said Armstrong did a great job.
Here's Armstrong checking out the camp's surroundings. They had to hike at night and really couldn't see where they were until the morning.
Here's Kevin in his camo clothing. Look closely for him. All you can see is the blue shirt :)
Here are my two favorite boys after their triumphant return. Precious and I really missed our two men and protectors. We were very lonely without them. We were so happy to have them home! Precious was sniffing Armstrong all over when he came through the door. Here is the backpacking troop: Merrill, Kevin, Armstrong & Aaron. Doesn't Aaron have such a great smile?! Aaron said it got very cold at night and Armstrong was shivering all night long even with this jacket on. Aaron had him lay in his sleeping bag with him and they were still cold. Now it is up to me to make Armstrong a down sleeping bag to take on his backpacking trips so both of my men will be nice and warm.
