County Fair

This was a new experience for us we had the kids in 4h this year they have raised pigs all summer and now at the fair they get to show them and sell them here we are washing them ya Talonnie did most of the work:)  we all had fun though

Then we had to clip their ears

and their tail:)

and the rest of their body it was quite the experience trying to shave them all:)


Here is Alli and Squiggy

This was the first day of the fair we took our pigs to get weighed in Squiggy weighed 258 and Butch weighed 277 and of course Alli had to decorate her pen she's such a dork she wanted me to go buy zebra striped everything to decorate with we settled with some streamers and balloons:)


Alli and Trey just before showing their pig they did such a good job for their first year they got blue ribbons for everything they did

Then after the first night they had a little rodeo for kids (and adults that wanted to) so Alli raced barrels and poles she did really good this is her on Duke good looking kid on a good looking horse!

Finally the last night of the fair they sold their pigs at the auction Alli got $900 for hers and Trey got $800 which is really good they were so excited! We are having them pay us back for the pigs and give some for tithing and a little in savings and the rest is theirs.  Allis is planning on school shopping (I'm not letting her spend the whole thing on clothes haha) and Trey wants to buy a new motorcycle we'll see what happens.
