Family Time . . . Love it!

Sunday we spent the afternoon at the Deerfield Fair.  We took the kids a few times back when they were little but we hadn't been back since.  What a fun time!  We started with a sheep/goat herding show, which being dog lovers, we were facsinated by and then moved on to some horse riding shows.  The kids (including the 6ft tall one) jumped on some carnival rides.  I think Ben's favorite part was being able to see and touch all of the animals, especially the baby cows.  I swear that child is going to grow up to be a vet or animal trainer!  The biggest dilemma of the day was trying to decide on what to eat.  We of course all had our favorite treats in mind for later (caramel apples, cotton candy, fried dough . . .) but it took a good hour of strolling the rows and rows of vendors to choose something for lunch.  Here are a few pictures.  I just love family days like these!  With Michael back in school they are definitely few and far between.  I miss them!
