Polo at King Family Vineyard & Foxfield Fun!

Sunday afternoon picnics and polo matches after church at King Family Vineyard is one of our favorite things to do with friends.  But we learned that the kids even enjoy the scene (as do we!) when it's just a family day.  They were GREAT and we all had a wonderful time.  











They were actually STILL and watched the Polo for a few minutes.






Always a great match at King Family Polo...
and the horses are entertaining, too.

  
We finally made it to Foxfield this fall, after years of wanting to check it out. What a fantastic family event the fall races are, especially with generous neighbors that open up their spot!

Face painting is always a hit


The horses were close enough to touch at one point.

Yep, managed to climb up into the Williams' Suburban all by himself!

Always good to have an Eastlack by your side.


Talked Mattias into giving him a better view.  Laurel was impressed!


 Why stand behind a fence when you can climb it??
 



Someone ADORES Miss Tracey:)
 



LOVE this conversation between Tristan and Margaret.

Lordy, Lordy, Margaret's...








...only 4, but sheesh!  Seems like she's going on 40!  Since JJ's birthday is September 12 and we had her party at Fairview (her home away from home), we thought it only fitting to celebrate him, too.  













We were "Guest Reader" at school on her birthday.  Would you look at how she's sitting?  Oh my goodness, I could not stop laughing!  















Cookie cake for the weekend party, muffins for school, and then  cake and homemade ice cream on the 17th.  Whew!
