This camper was surely the best investment we have made recently. It is SO MUCH FUN!

Here are a slew of pix from our weekend and below the link a few of my faves.

November 21-23, 2008. We headed out to Roosevelt Lake to camp this weekend with Scott’s parents (in their RV) and Andrea, Jay and McKenna. Friday night we enjoyed fresh-made tamales around the campfire. We had a lazy Saturday and, after a big breakfast on Sunday morning complete with bacon, eggs, hashbrowns, pancakes and fruit, we caravaned just up the road to hike up to the cliff dwelling ruins at Tonto National Forest. We shared a picnic lunch before heading home. What a fun weekend!!

Mira and her cousin got to sleepover in the grandparent’s RV!! They were in HEAVEN, can you tell??

View of the lake from our campsite:

My sister in law and father in law, but especially the artwork taped up behind them lol

Cousins playing in Grandma and Grandpa’s RV (the kids all slept in the RV – grandma and grandpa are SAINTS.)

We hiked up to this cliff dwelling:

Cool view of where we were camping (down by the lake) from where we were hiking this afternoon:

Me, hiking, with trekking poles in hand…

Cool pic of the cliff dwelling ruins. You can’t really see it in this particular photo, but the cave ceiling is totally blackened from ancient campfires. Isn’t that wild? 600 year old soot.

Scott & his dad (with Jake napping in the ergo on Scott’s back). Overlooking Roosevelt Lake at Tonto National Monument – at the base of hike up to the lower cliff dwelling ruins.

Jake took this pic during a diaper change!

After sleeping through the whole hike, Jake is rarin’ to go!
