I love camping!!

Camping was such a blast!! As we were driving to Buckhorn Wash on Thursday, the skies were really dark and right where we were driving to had lots of thunder and lighting. I was a tad concerned because last time we were there the tent flooded. Granted we have a new tent but I didn't really want to be putting a tent with metal poles up in a lighting storm. A sheriff stopped us and told us not to go down there because 3/4 of the camp ground was underwater. But we were determined and by the time we got close the storm was starting to clear up. The crazy thing is as soon as we rounded a corner into the camp ground the sun was shining right on us!! So we knew it was going to be ok. Well it sort of was. The place we camped last year you didn't have to pay, so since no one was camping in the camp ground they decided to turn the place we were at into a pay place. I can see the reasoning, there was bathrooms and better dirt roads but we couldn't take the 4-wheelers on the dame trails we did last year. But what can you do, there was still enough trails and mud to keep us busy. So we picked out a spot and started setting up the GINORMOUS tent. It didn't take us that long but once we got everything inside we realized it's not really that big. We did have in there two queens air mattresses, a pack in play, two huge bags for clothes and still had room to move around in. So it worked out really well. The kids were great the whole time. Towards the end Khloe got a little moody because she was in the sun for too long, and Jett couldn't crawl around on the ground so he was a little perturbed. Gage was a touch whiny because he couldn't climb a tree like the other kids. We had fun on the four wheelers, even Brett's mom ( I think she wants to buy one!!). I can't wait to go next year!!
The first picture is of the cliff face that's by our campsite.....Brett wanted to climb it until the sheer face but I wouldn't let him.....sorry babe, you've got to much to think about!! But he was able to climb a big boulder that fell off a cliff when we went on a night ride. It was pretty fun!!
