We're back from wonderful Flagstaff, AZ. Our trip was one of our best so far! The weather was great and we had so much fun! We read books in our hammocks, used our new axe to chop lots of fantastic smelling pine wood (from trees that were already down), hiked the "Arizona Trail", played chess, yahtzee, scrabble, and my fav, Rummy 500!
Sitting by the campfire is one of my favorite things about camping. It's often a time of reflection for me. Dan and I have also had some of our best conversations while sitting by the campfire.
Bailey of course, was in tow. :) This is a view from Mount Humphrey just outside of Flagstaff. When they get snow, this is one of the big ski spots in AZ.
And of course, what would a camping trip be without smore's !! woohoo! I was so delighted that they didn't leave me feeling sick! ( They did last time and I was worried I was getting too old for them! :) Smore's always bring me back to my days as a "brownie". I had my first smore on a camping trip with my brownie pack and I thought I was in heaven. :)
Well, this site will probably be quiet for some time now. Starting tomorrow I'm working 6 shifts this week. I need to do this so I can be off the week of my graduate school orientation. I hope you all have a great week!

I am glad that you had a great camping trip. I love Yahtzee. I played that on the trip back from Iowa. YIPPEE Graduate school orientation!!! Go Get Um!
That looks like a heavenly trip to me. I think I'm ready to take a camping trip... thanks for the inspiration! Hopefully one day we can take a trip together!! :)
Good luck at orientation! I'm excited for you!
Oh how I love camping! Glad you guys had a great time!
I'm so glad you took the time to relax before school get under way. Flagstaff is so great this time of year! Next year's camping trip will be equally as enjoyable, only you won't be sitting down as much. Having a little one around a camp fire can be quite an experience. Can't wait to see those pictures as well.
I'm glad you got this time away. The smores look awesome. Can you ever be too old for s'mores? LOL!!
Glad you had a great time!
I love camping as well. I hope you enjoyed your rest and relaxation. Next year your trip will be even more enjoyable with your little sugarplum, only don't plan an resting as much. It's very interesting to have a 12 months old around a campfire!
Welcome home! Looks like a great time.
Keep smilin!
HOW FUN! S'mores are one of my most favorite things in the whole world!!! ; )
