Now that the middle of August is here I finally feel like I can take a minute to document the rest of our July and early August.  As summertime is we were very busy enjoying family, the outdoors, and the freedom summer has to offer.  It was great to get out of the heat of St. George and enjoy some of the beautiful locations that aren't too far from here.
- Barton Family Reunion at the Dirt Farm.
We always love going up and camping.  As it usually is we spent most of our time lounging around, visiting, catching up with cousins, the kids doing races, having our balloon toss and horse shoe tournament... and eating good food. Lincoln loved exploring and getting dirty!

 Our balloon toss competition. I ended up getting drenched...

 Horseshoes--- Pretty good form Adam.

 Ya that look on my face was about how my horseshoe skills are... pretty pathetic.

 The Girl Winners.. My Mom and Aunt Carol Ann.

 The Guy winners. Justin and James.

 Rylee and Lincoln wanted in on the Horse shoe action as well.

Friday morning a big group of us headed over to 'Red Canyon' and did a hike. Although the pace was about as slow as it could be---and more pictures were taken than steps, we had a great time. I love exploring new hikes that I have never done.  It was perfect for all ages-- even my Grandma did it! She is pretty impressive though.

 All of us that hiked!

 Mom and Lincoln--- he got tired of being carried around and wanted to do some walking on his own.

 I LOVE me some red rocks!

 Our little family!
