Camping by Tucson

The site we now like to camp at has an elevation of 8500 ft.
There are no restrooms or water; only fire rings.

We even brought out two basset hounds with us on this trip. The temps probably got into the upper 30's. The dogs slept in the vestibule part of the tent. I have to admit it was funny to hear Emmets teeth chatter. But they snuggled together in their blankets.
That weekend there was a marathon that ran up the main road going into the mountains. It is considered the toughest marathon in the world as it is uphill the entire way!!! It climbs more than 8000 feet!!! Check it out here

The boys napping

The boys love to sleep with their stuffed animals.

This year, Kaden was Zoro and August was a soldier.
We enjoy making the boys' costumes giving them a unique look. I remember growing up using whatever we could find to come up with a costume. It is fun to have the boys use the same imagination and creativity.August loves to work on Laurel's hair making her "beautiful."
This was the boys' first day of school back in August.
