4th of July Camping

For the 4th of July T and I decided to go camping just the two of us (and the pups of course)! As much as I love camping with a big group - I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE camping with just my honey! It is 10 x's more relaxed and my idea of a great get away! I love spending time with Tren!

Deisel and Roxy were so excited to go!

I love that Tren knows every mountain range. He has tons of great camping spots! (The one perk of being married to a hunter) I love finding some random place in the mountains and setting up camp -- forget campgrounds where you are close to other camps -- dry camping is much more fun! We found a gorgeous spot with lots of shade, by a creek and where the dogs could just run!

Tren took us to this little resevoir! It was GORGEOUS! Even better, hardly anyone was there!

The dogs had so much fun playing in the water! Deisel was a little unsure at first, but he warmed up to the idea pretty quick. (some water dog he is!)
So I thought instead of taking the long way back, we would go through a 'short cut' -- bad idea! I was shin deep in the mud! It smelled awful - T got a few good pictures and laughs!

Family picture! I have no idea what the dogs are looking at!

Tren working on some training with Deisel....one day, he hopes to take Deisel duck hunting.

Catching up on some reading! Sometimes I miss my 3 day work week when I had time to do things I love... such as reading!

Roxy being a princess... and Deisel being a typical puppy -- Chewing on EVERYTHING!

Breakfast the next morning! It was pouring rain and pretty chilly but that didn't stop Tren from making his usual amazing breakfast! I love it!

Packing up and heading home a day early! We were hoping the rain would stop but no luck! It was super fun while it lasted!
