Witherspoon recently took her 13-year-old son Deacon Phillippe on an adventure-filled camping trip, and they honestly look like they're having the time of their lives. Witherspoon first tipped off her fans that some Wild-esque fun was coming with an Instagram video on a helicopter more than 2,600feet in the air. The trip only got more exciting from there, if you can believe it. In a series of Instagram and Snapchat posts, Witherspoon cataloged a day full of water sports, wetsuits, and kayaking. reesewitherspoon/Snapchat While the activities looked fun, the best part was the obvious mother-son bonding between Witherspoon and Deacon. Deacon even showed himself to be a helpful camping buddy when he gave Witherspoon a hand with her drysuit on Snapchat. reesewitherspoon/Snapchat The two nature fans also went on a camping trip last year together, and it's pretty cool to see how much Deacon has grown in such a short amount of time. reesewitherspoon/Instragram VIDEO: 10 Times Reese Witherspoon Was the Coolest Mom Which Big Little Lies Mom Is Reese Witherspoon IRL?
