Southern Arizona Day Trip

Hello everyone! I have a quick post for you today. Last Saturday we took a day trip to southern Arizona. We really didn't have much of a plan, and we had a blast! We drove to Benson to stop for lunch, and of course we had to take a picture with a Benson sign.


The Bensons in Benson!


We headed down to Tombstone not knowing what to expect. We ended up spending most of our day here!


As soon as we got out of the car, we felt like we had taken a step back into the Wild, Wild West!


It was very windy!


We walked around to explore the old town.


We checked out all the stores while all the shop keepers "oohed" and "ahhed" at our gorgeous baby!


There were all sorts of people dressed up wandering the streets. 


Checking out all the old carriages.


It seemed like the thing to do there was to go watch a gun fight so we chose to check out the one at the OK Corral as it was the one we knew about. They also had a display where the actual shoot out occurred.


We learned tons of history on the town of Tombstone and why its slogan is "a town too tough to die." It has burned down twice and been through many economic hardships!


We ended our day in Bisbee to take in the Queen Mine. It is enormous!



They wouldn't let Ramsey take the tour so we went out for dinner instead!


We had such a fun day exploring AZ as a family of three!

And a quick note for our week: Ramsey is having her first Valentine's party at daycare! I had lots of fun making her Valentines! It's so much fun to craft for my daughter.


Happy Valentine's Week!
