Random Pictures

These are just a few random pictures of what we've been up to the last few weeks.

Link's mosquito bite on his ear. The poor guy, his ear was so swollen and big that when he ran it litterally flapped up and down!

Playing in the "pool", or cold hot tub up at our friend's house. The little girl in the picture is my friend, Jenny's little girl, Lulu. She is just 2 weeks younger than Link. Jax and Link just love her. Everyday they ask if they can do something with her. One day one of my boys will marry her.

Grandpa Barnes gettin some Joseph loves while relaxing in the shade with Grandma T at our house after a lovely Sunday dinner.

Linkon and Matthew eating an ice cream cone at our house. This picture reminded me of a picture I have of me and my cousin Shantay when we were probably 3 or 4 at my Grandma Green's hosue eating ice cream and giggling.

Family Reunion





This year we had our Barnes Family Reunion in Island Park. It was perfect, except for the massive swarms of mosquitoes. Seriously, when we ate we had to watch very carefully to make sure we weren't taking a bite of mosquitoes. I've never seen so many mosquitoes in all my life. We played a game where we were moving around and being really active. Because we were sweating and our blood was pumping we were mosquito magnets! We were literally covered head to toe in the little winged vampires. The only way to avoid them was to go on four wheeler, motorbike and mule rides, which we did, a lot! Went up to Big Springs to feed the fish. I think we saw 2 or 3. But there were a ton of seagulls and a muskrat, so we fed them instead. I didn't take a lot of pictures, because I was usually too busy swatting away mosquitoes! Ok, I don't really have an excuse. But, I hope you enjoy the few I took.
