Fair

Our family loves the fair!  This year it was a little more work because Wyatt was old enough to show a sheep.  

This is the kids bathing their sheep to get them ready to show.  You gotta love Shays outfit swimsuit with mudboots- oh I love that girl!


Wyatts sheep was named Jumping spider and it lived up to his name- that sheep was wild and Wyatt had a hard time controlling it.  But I was so proud of him it did get away a couple times when he was showing it, but everytime he just hurried and grabbed it and got back in line.  He did not get upset.  He did a great job for his first year.  It is a lot of work for him and his parents I will be glad to not have to get up every morning and walk that sheep a mile.  Shay did the peewee class again and she showed her sheep Zorro she was such a nice sheep and show is a natural can't wait for her to do 4-H.













The kids also took in Pigeons, Chickens rabbits, and vegtables. Wyatt was so excited to win a trophy on his pigeon.  The kids also sold 6 baby rabbits They both came home with around $80 for all their sales and ribbons.  Lucky kids they can't wait to go to Lagoon next week which is what they want to use their ribbon money for.
