Boy you ladies have been busy this past week. It will take me some time to work through all the posts and catch up.
DD and I were at our county fair from Monday until Sunday night. And what a great time we had. Well, our 4-H club always has a fun time, but this year was especially exciting. Our club is small - maybe 20-25 members, but only about 10 participate in the fair. So, for a small club we pretty much swept a good chunk of the show  .
Grand Champ meat pen of rabbits, chicks and turkeys
Champions and reserve champs on several breeding rabbits
1st, 2nd 3rd and 4th in rabbit showmanship
1st, 3rd and 4th in poultry showmanship
Reserve Grand champ market lamb
Supreme champ breeding ewe
1st in sheep showmanship
(my DD had the sheep. I know - proud mama)
1st and 2nd in small educational gardens, with the 1st place entry winning a fair directors choice award.
Needless to say the kids were flying high all week. Every day got better and better.
Now that we are beginning to come back down to earth - where do we put all those rosettes? 
Thanks for letting me brag. |

Well done Jennifer. You have the right to brag, and should be very proud.
Friends are the best collectables. |

Fantastic! What a good group of animal caretakers you have there! I'm so glad to hear about your successes. I just love when families get involved in fairs. Such a great, positive thing to do together. Good for you guys. :)
We make a difference. |

JENNIFER,
I would want to brag too, a lot of work goes into these things, you all did a great job. Better get a rather large bulletin board!
