Birthday and Fair Weekend...

Clay turned 8 on Aug 17!  Happy birthday!  His first bb gun.

He has been baiting flies with ham slices and then shooting them off the ham...

Our handsome boy with a little peanut butter on his chin....

Ivy modeling her skirt and tote bag at the fashion show.

Her partners in sewing...

At the sale!!  Both lambs got 2nd place and she got to sell one of them.

These are the generous buyers who bought her lamb.  She got $1800+ add ons!  This fair has lots of buyers, not just one per kid!    It is so humbling how the community comes together for this.  It is also sad that so few kids do it anymore.  

Pre-fair baking day = big big mess and some yummy snacks.

These are some 1st place cookies.  I guess the secret is in the sifting...

1st place biscuits....

Ivy made Clay bake with her, so she doubled everything and he had his own batches to whip up...

Aspen, our Ext. agent let the little girls show the lambs in the boosters pet show.

I think these little ladies will be showing lambs as soon as they can.
