A Boy & His Horse


Danny Boy was to come home on October 8th...Hopefully we can hurry and get the fence done as James has scheduled his surgery for the 11th of October.  "can we pick him up early so I can ride him a lot before they break my neck"  ~ aaahhh, I love this boy and his horse!

"It's a Perfect 10!"

  • Brandon Douglas did so well at the fair again this year. . . "I was never late for barn duty, and no one yelled at me"  Not words his Mother would use to describe his year. . . but he was so excited. 

  • He had  F U N  the whole week.  He liked the pigs the best and he also had fun with his Grandparents.  I am so proud again of him, he does his barn duty then stands (or sits) with his pig and asks families that walk by if they are having fun and if the have any questions about pigs :) 

  • So Cute!! I can't even begin to wrap my mind around my baby who was so shy and clingy as a baby, be so independent and strong! 
 Way to Go Mr. B!

Christian Thomas also took a pig to the fair this year!  He did an awesome job, especially as a 1st Year Showman!  He had a lot of fun and met a lot of new friends in 4-H.

He also got a purple ribbon as a 1st year Poultry Showman!  A H U G E feat, even if he did not have a V E R Y uncooperative duck!  He truly did A W E S O M E!

He was not sad when he sold his pig at the Stock Sale. . . "I get a big check"  and he brought home is almost perfect Call Duck to breed.  (She looks almost perfect, she really has a horrible disposition)                                
James and I are so proud!

Way to go Boys!!
