City Slickers

All the Simonton's and Bair's had a barbeque out in the desert on Saturday night. It was to celebrate all of the April birthday's, including Thomas, Bonnie, Katelyn, Austin and Alec. The kids all went horseback riding. Hayden loved it and looked like a natural on the horse. He sure loves animals, any kind. He want to be a vet when he grows up.



Hayden sure loves his Grandpa!



The boys cracked me up, out came a dog, and all the boys came over to see the dog. They were so entertained throwing it sticks and water bottles and having the dog bring them back.



We all took a wagon ride out into the desert. We looked like a bunch of city slickers that had no business being out in the dirt and in the desert. None of us are very adventuresome or used to being outdoors. But, we had a great time and loved the cowboy cookout. I think all food tastes better when it is cooked outdoors. The kids loved roasting marshmellows and the campfire! I loved it, we got our "camping" fill in without having to set up a tent or actually camp. The best part of camping is the campfire!

We did have a great time. I am so lucky that we have so much family that live close so we can get together. I love the relationship that all the cousins have formed. They are lucky to have each other. I'm so glad that I have such a wonderful family.
