Catching up on posts is fun to do, to do, to do, to do...

I will try to get caught up on our last couple weeks of adventures....
Oh, a camping we will go!! Last weekend, we went to Fossil Creek and camped there for a few days in our new pop-up trailer. It was a lot of fun and I am singing the praises of being up off the ground and on a bed while camping. I am not singing the praises of misquitos right now though! I think Sarah and I got bit by about 300 misquitos while we were there and we are still trying not to scratch our arms and face all day long. I was very religious about spraying bug spray on everyone and the bugs were very religious about not caring when it came to Sarah and I. We must have some really great blood is all I have to say!! Here is a view from right near our campsite... beautiful Arizona!!!
Will getting dirty as usual.... that's why he loves camping!

Cassidy got brave and would jump off the small cliffs as long as her dad was waiting patiently in the (freezing) water.

You could look down and see all the fish there below you in the water... Kind of a creepy feeling so I kept shoes on my feet so they wouldn't nibble off my toes.

Lund and Dad decided to jump off the cliffs together as a pair... it was really cute!!! Of course my boys are really cute always!!!!!

Morgan posed with the brave two who didn't mind the cold water...

Me, Sarah, and Lund

The boys were the first ones to jump into the freezing water.... wow! they are a tougher breed than I...

Cassidy loved the water, but as you can see.. Sarah wasn't quite so sure!


I got brave right before we left and decided to dive off a high cliff... not too high of course, I am not crazy brave or anything!!!

ok- sounds wierd, i know! Here is the best thing i found while living in mosquito infested Louisiana. And they LOVE me. Do the bug spray AND put a bounce dryer sheet anywhere you like. I used to tie them on backpakc straps. belt looks, strollers you name it. Don't know why but they help! Good luck! Your post makes me want to camp in AZ! So fun

What a gorgeous spot you guys found. It looks like soooo much fun and not having to sleep on the ground is the cherry on the cake. Love,
