Camping!!

We took Caemlyn and Roxie on their first camping trip. We went up to Mt Lemmon and camped at Rose Canyon Lake. It was really nice. We had a huge campsite and nobody was around us. Everyone had fun. We walked around the lake, went hiking, and relaxed. Caemlyn did not like walking on the uneven surface and kept tripping on every rock and branch. The weather was also really nice. Addison had so much fun and cried when we started to pack up and leave.

And we are off!

Caemlyn liked hanging out at the little beach (nothing to trip over)

Addison found a fuzzy caterpillar

And we made it to the top

Thats our campsite way down there

The girls got so dirty in the first five minutes of camping. This is Addison after a day of camping!

Ben read "The Host" the whole time we were camping.

Addi loved her new chair

Wow, I am jealous! It looks like you guys had a great time!!!! That area is gorgeous. Your tent is awesome! Don't you love how dirty the kids get? I think it two baths to get the dirt off of Lauren.

I love that picture of Addi all dirty. We are going camping this weekend and just can't wait for the mess the kids will be. Where is Mt. Lemmon?
