We've been oh, so busy 'round here. Haley has been at the county fair for the past 4 days. She showed her sheep. Did very well. Second place in market (means her sheep will make tasty morsels for somebody). Last year she did not do well in showmanship - got frustrated, didn't practice. This year she placed 7th out of 22. Which is a huge improvement. Auction is tomorrow. Today Haley decided she wants to be a vegetarian. Which kind of goes against the whole raise a lamb to go to market to make money to put in your college account. I'm finding it kind of humorous. She printed out a flier that had a picture of a pig and said "Don't eat me".
If you have time this weekend and live anywhere near Sacramento you should head on over to the county fair at the Cal Expo fairgrounds. I took Jilly yesterday afternoon and she rode some rides and had a great time looking at all of the animals. We'll all be going again tomorrow since Haley has to show the lamb in auction. Then the girls can ride some rides, eat some fattening food (no meat for Haley) and have a good time.
Tuesday is my babies birthday. She'll be 5!!!!!! Of courseI'll post some pics here soon. And we are off to a big block party to celebrate Russ' sister's 30th birthday.
