Missing My Boys

I'm really missing my boys right now.  Aaron and Andrew went to BYU Fathers and Sons Camp Friday afternoon.  Both of them are having a great time.  I've spoken to Aaron a few times.  Every time I talk to him they're off to a different activity.  -I'm glad they're staying busy.  :)
Here's a schedule I printed off of BYU's website:
