Off to the Fair

We make it an annual tradition to head to the Washington County Fair.  The best part about the fair is getting up close with all of the animals!  Horses, cows, pigs, baby chicks, even reindeer!  Too many animals to count.

Of course, riding the rides and checking out the “big boy toys” is always a blast too!

They didn’t quite make it to the top, but that’s their goal for next year!  We love the fair!

More Track Fun

Today we spent another fun day at the track, except this time we were cheering for horses instead of cars!  We headed up to Saratoga Race Track for some fun with family and high hopes of winning big!

Seamus and Grace made some good picks today and Devon was on a roll, but we quit while we were ahead!  Lots of fun as always at the track!

ValleyCats

We finally made it to our first ValleyCats game of the season!  We have been having a crazy busy summer, so we haven’t gotten to as many games as we would like.  Hoping to squeeze in a few more in the next few weeks!
Getting some VC tattoos!

We got a pic with Pappy Paw, but Southpaw was so busy out on the field that we didn’t get to see him.  We’ll be sure to hunt him down next time!
