Me: Piggy Love
@ the Shelby County Fair.
Mom, Bob & I went to the county fair this morning. The fairgrounds are just 3 miles from mom's house. We ate breakfast at the fair & walked around. There was rabbit judging. Is that new?! I don't remember that when I was in 4-H. There were a lot of rabbits.
There was also goat judging (above).
Horse Judging (waiting their turn).
And Gidget…who already has her blue ribbon hanging on the stall!
Of course there is calf judging and pigs (which we didn't see this time).
Surprise visit from our Denver niece, Danielle & her 3 kids (Ashley, Tyler & Brooke)! They have been in IA this week visiting Danielle's folks, siblings & their children in the Des Moines area. They stayed at my mom's for two nights while we were home.
Bob & I spent the afternoon with them at the Elk Horn swimming pool. It was a hot & humid day (heat index showed 111 degrees) so that was the only thing that sounded fun - and it was! Not only did we get time with Danielle & kids but her mom, Susan was there plus Laura (nephew Reggie's wife) & their 3 kids from Des Moines. BTW: I was a lifeguard here during high school & practically lived at the pool every summer growing up.
We were lucky to have such a nice & large swimming pool in our small town!
