Pig Wrestling Anyone!
We survived fair week! I met myself coming and going many times over the course of last week and weekend and at one point I think I even passed myself and said, HI! It was a busy week and a fun week as well. Countrychick and friends entered a pig wrestling event last Friday night. They represented our county 4-H program. Did they catch their pig....you will have to watch the video to find out. The rest of the photos below are of Countrychick showing her birds. She did very well...scored 100 on her showmanship and received a blue ribbon and three of her roosters placed very high; 1 grand champion and 2 reserves in their classes. The little chick that we raised this spring won Reserve Champion Heavy Breed in the show. My friend Oregontribal1 and her husband Dodgeman were here for our crazy fair week. They were hoping for a vacation, but I put them to work. They were troopers and a huge help as well. I think they had a great time, but next year they might plan their vacation a little differently so as not to have to work so hard on their time off....he, he. Thanks guys for all of your help! Okay, so Hayman has surprised me with a trip for our 20th wedding anniversary. The big day is not until the 23rd of this month, but Hayman will be putting up 4th crop of hay at that time, so he planned a little trip for us and we leave tomorrow. I will be sure to post photos when we return. I'm told there is no internet where we are going, so you will have to wait until next week for an update. Happy Weekend to all and you all really should try pig wrestling sometime...........

Glad you enjoyed the fair...I can imagine that you were VERY busy. Countrychick did SO well...I bet you were very proud.
Wow! She looks so grown-up and mature and just beautiful, too.
But I don't want to know how nasty she was after rolling in the muck and pig poop. eww! lol!
Sounded like some crazy fun! Now you just need to enjoy a glass of wine and some quiet time with your hubby. (and not rolling in the hay. lol!) Congrats on your 20th! My hubby and I celebrate our 20th next May.

Congratulations to Countrychick! I also enjoyed the mud wrestling contest, just glad it wasn't me...
Happy 20th Anniversary! Where was the surprise trip Hayman planned for the two of you? Sounds like a lot of work and fun went into the month of September. Maybe in October you can slow down a bit.
Until next time be happy and don't work to hard! Take time to smell the fresh country air or the roses!
