This summer we decided to have a "Skousen" family reunion. We've had reunions before but never with just immediate family. We all drove down/up to St. George, Ut the weekend of July 24th. We missed Darrel, Missy, Jeff and Thad but had so much fun being together with just our family. It was a quick trip but we managed to cram in a few fun outings. The house we rented had a pool and an in ground trampoline so the kiddo's were entertained 24/7 (Thank goodness). It's so nice that you can buy fireworks in Utah. We had the guys pick some up and the kids had so much fun watching them and playing with sparklers.
We played phase 10 a ton while we were there. We Skousen's LOVE to play games!!!! One night Gina, Charisse, Kenneth, my Mom and I were all playing. We had such a huge competition going that we refused to stop playing until one of us had won. We were playing to the death. By the time my Mom won not only was it almost 2:00 in the morning but we were all ready to strangle each other :-) I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard :-)
That Saturday we drove up to Zions national park and hiked a few of the trails. I lived in Utah for 7 years and had never seen Zions. It was truly beautiful. It was still a tad bit toasty, especially when hiking straight up hill, but the scenery was so nice it didn't matter.

The Weeping Rock
I have never seen so many squirrels in my life. They were literally everywhere. The kids loved it!!!!
Looking for more animals :-)

Jacey wanted to touch the squirrel sooo bad.
Charisse and I kept ourselves entertained by doing "Glitter" toes!!!!
