DISTRICT FAIR AT HOPE






You can't win them all....The girls are always dissapointed if they don't take the Grand Champion Awards when they enter. But BAD JUDGE is the only explanation I could come up with. Sheyanne said she thought he was a goat judge. Poor man was so hot and had so many cattle to judge he just had to make a few mistakes....Acturally they got first place in their breed but ONLY got Reserve Champion for their bull and heifer. Then in showmanship the judge narrowed the twenty down to three and both girls were in the top three, in their age group, but failed to make the top spot. Bah humbug!!!

Sheyanne's boyfriend, Zack, is learning the ropes of cattle showing. It is all new to him and you can tell he is having so much fun watching the girls scoop up cow poop, wash and blow dry their animals and then wait, wait, wait, until they are ready to show.

The AR State Fair is next on the agenda and that will be the end of Sheyanne's being able to show. I'm not sure if she will celebrate or be sorry...we will see.

Grandchildren are such a blessing in our lives. Wouldn't trade one minute I have spent with mine as I know you wouldn't either. God bless us all. Edna P.S. I LOVE this song.
