Camping~Arizona Style

This past weekend we decided to go camping with our friends the Hamblins. We only have a couple more weeks before Caleb starts rotations and then I'm sure we won't see him as much as we are used to so we figured we'd better take advantage of the time we have. Our plan was to go to Sedona and Slide Rock (we went there last year and had a blast) but all their campsites were nearly full (and it would have cost us $20) so we found our own spot a little closer to Flagstaff...and the best part was that it was FREE!! We had anawesome time!

The girls loved playing in the dirt--by the next day they were coated in it!
Britni and I fixing dinner
Britni's husband, Travis, taught us how to make dutch oven BBQ chicken pizza and it was sooo good!
...the finished product...Mmmmm...
Crewser man--just chillin'
Love that little guy!
Caysja ADORES marshmallows--as you can see...
Makin' s'mores
Playing 'Old Maid'
Crew and Myli want to play too!
This was Caysja all the way home! We wore her out I guess.
Thanks for going with us, Hamblin family! We can't wait to go again. Anyone want to go with us?

Looks like you guys have had a lot of fun this past month. We wanted to go camping this weekend, but realized we had other things we had to do. I'm hoping to go soon though because pretty soon it will be too cold. Did you dad get a new boat, it looks really big.
