Red Butte in the summer

Over the years and years of going to Red Butte Garden, we noticed something. We love Red Butte in the spring and the fall. However, we are lucky if we go once in the summer (due to the heat) and once in the winter. It's weird, because we love Red Butte so much, we need to really visit more in the hight of the summer, since all the flowers are their most glorious now.

The fact that yesterday morning was a touch cooler was perfect for walking around the garden. This is the face I got when I asked James to look at Dada and smile. I love his personality. This kid is a goof ball and he can really ham it up when he wants to.

 I am always drawn to red.

 More red. With a butterfly.

And more red. James has two pairs of saltwater sandals, navy blue and red but he asks for the red almost daily.

I've mentioned in almost every Red Butte post that James loves the bridge overlooking the waterfall, it is always were we head to first.

Trying to get a photo of the three of us ended in a lot of jumping. At least E caught the goof ball in the air.

 And then it was my turn to catch of photo of the three of them. At least 2/3 are smiling.

 And there's a baby girl smile.

 Across the floating bridge. Everything is so green and lush!

 Red Butte, we love you. We'll be back.
