Family Time???

The other day we all went outside. James was watering the yard. The girls were holding rabbits and riding bikes. (not simultaneously☺) The boys were herding goats and riding bikes, somewhat simultaneously! :D I decided to go out and take some pictures of my beautiful family and nature. There was no organization to it. It wasn't planned. I didn't even consider it "family time". But then while looking at all the pictures with my kids, James Michael said "That was really fun, we haven't had family time like that in a long time!" Wow, that struck my heart! I always want to have "family time", but I always have this image of what it must be like. If it's not like that image I just assume it's not family time. But when he said it, it really made me think...What do the kids think is family time? If that was his idea of family time, then why don't we do it more often? It wasn't a big deal. It wasn't all floofy and exciting. It was just time spent outside as a family. How simple! How effective! How easy to do! And if it makes my kids happy and makes them feel more loved, then you bet we're going to do it more! So here's some pictures of our "Family Time"...
