Matt & I finally packed up our truck and headed to Gainesville, GA (40 minutes away) for a three day weekend camping with our Chihuahua's! We couldn't resist taking advantage of the long weekend! But, tent camping with four chihuahua's was a bit daunting. We weren't sure how they would behave. All was well until one of our neighbor campers showed up with their THREE 100 pound dogs.
Our little tent camp site
The year we were first married, Matt gave us a tent for Christmas. We have only been tent camping one time (and we were ill prepared). Since then we have been collecting items to help our camping trips be more successful & comfortable. One of those items was a blow up, inflatable bed.
We went to Coleman's Outlet Center last year and purchased a luxury triple thickness bed. We had visions of sleeping in comfort!! All was well until we put it inside our tent & inflated it...we didn't consider that once inflated the bed would fill up all floor space and practically touch the ceiling!! LOL OMG!! Yes, only one foot from the entrance to the bed (so luggage remained in the truck)...and while laying in the bed you can touch the tent ceiling! Well, the good part was we slept like babies and our babies had the perfect view of us from the comfort of bed- because it set them perfectly looking out the screen window to see all that was going on outside the tent!!
Three Amigos: Nacho, Penny & Bingo loved to be outside with us
Sierra, preferred to sit on the bed, protected from any bees/bugs, etc. behind the tent screened windows

I wish this picture was not blurry! URGH, too cute not to post tho- handling four chihuahua's on a lead can be mmmm...difficult at times
Is this the way out?
