Really??
Okay, so the kids slept in again today--according to Maddie, this is my fault for feeding them dinner at 9:45 last night--she is probably right. So, instead of heading into Paris, Bobby planned a trip to a small town call Rambouillet where we could see a 400 year old farm. Really? Do we need to come all the way to Paris to see some horses, goats, and pigs? I have been taking the kids to Zoomars since they were little and they have had plenty of time to hang out with farm animals. However, submissive wife that I am:), I said "Okay, let's do it!" (the exclamation point is for my great enthusiasm). The farm was enchanting--meaning stinky and fly filled. Our excitement peaked while seeing the cows and goats being milked--Really??
After visiting le ferme, we walked through the streets of town. The town of Rambouillet is actually very charming with lovely shops, a beautiful chateau, and cathedral in its center.
The highlight of the day was hearing Jacob say "Bonjour madame, Je voudrais un boule de chocolat" at the ice cream shop. This brought a smile to all of our faces even though we were still swatting at the flies. Really?
