Day 9: Family Time

Today was a bit busier than most Sundays, but was time together.  From attending the local parade in town, to helping out at Dog Fest this afternoon, to family game night tonight, we were busy, but having fun.  Most importantly, looking back on the day, filled with joy as we did things together as a family.  Working together, volunteering at Dog Fest, although a bit tiring after walking for two hours, was really a fun opportunity that both kids want to go back and attend next year...WITH our puppy who will them be old enough to join us.  Then, this evening, spur of the moment, we decided to stay up and play a family game together, which just topped the day.  Watching the kids get along, laughing, getting up and dancing, I was filled with joy watching them have so much fun together.  It was a great ending to our first weekend of summer vacation.
