Fair Days, Part 1

Nathan's first year in 4-H and did sooo good! He received a trophy and ribbon in beginner showmanship and his pig was grand champion heavyweight market hog so he received another trophy! Way to go Nathan!!!! :)

 



Jo and her piggy.....

Micah showing in his class. He had the reserve grand champion market hog which is cool since he bred and raised them(Nathan's hog too). Good job, buddy!

Nathan, very happy with what he got. :)

Good job guys! All your hard work paid off!

We were happily suprised to see Aunt Joan and she was happily suprised to see Dana and Lisa!

Thanks for coming and watching the swine show Aunt Joan!

 

A brotherly/sisterly chat

After that, some of us went home and went swimming in the creek as well as checking out the cute cabins lining the bank that our neighbor owns.

The livery

My, my.....soooo cute!

 

Having fun on the footbridge

Jo to the rescue! Lisa's flip flop tried to float away downstream so Jo went diving after it.

Floating under the bridge. It's really fun!

 

I think Lisa had the most fun out of anybody. She is so much fun!

Splashing

Oh no! Are they going to make it??

 

You can do it!!

Chillin' in the creek

Mary finally ventured into the rushing creek and decided it was really fun!

 

Four big waterbugs

One of the cabins

Love this one

 

And of course...the stable

 

 

The perfect place to be on a hot, summer day.

Saying goodbye!
