I'm obviously behind on the blogging. Here's some pictures of my family at the County Fair back in September.
Drill Team -- My baby sister Jolene is riding the 4th horse from the right in this pinwheel.
More Drill Team. They are an impressive group of riders.
Jolene and Dapper doing their best to be quick around the barrels.
My cousin Andrea showing in the "Farmer Bud" -- a just-for-fun show for kids 8 years old and younger. Jason is helping "lead" the calf around.
Jason and Becky all schnazzy with the cows getting ready to go in for the futurity show. (For those of you who aren't in the cow showing world-- these are cows we entered for this show when they were calves in 2003. They are 3 year-old cows, in their second year of producing milk. The idea is to be able to pick out calves in your herd who will be show quality after halving had 2 calves of their own.)
Becky on the halter. She's leading a good cow - nice milk producer - but not the fancy type of show cow you hope for. She received 22nd place out of 28 or so. Not bad when you saw all the nice looking animals in the ring.
This is the real beauty (and Jason's pretty handsome, too). 9th place. Even if you don't know cows, I bet you can tell she's a real looker. :)
