For Memorial Weekend last weekend Matt and I finally went on our first camping trip together!! It only took up a year and a half! We a bunch of cool camping essentials from our wedding and we always talked about going, but we just always found reasons not to. So this time we bought a tent, which was the last item we really needed of our own, and we promised to go.....and it turned out to be so much fun! We went to fossil springs for the day to play in the water and then camped in Strawberry, which are both just past Payson, Arizona. The Road we took down to the river was all dirt and bumping and winded down the side of a mountain!! At times it was scary and uncomfortable but the water at the end made it worth it!

| It was 8 or 9 feet deep in some parts and the water was super clear! |
