Grant County Fair 2009

We lived at the Grant County Fair last week. Had a lot of fun as a family. We also really enjoyed Coles, Jolleys and the rest of the crew. The kids did really well this year. Courtney gets better at handling her rabbits every year. This was Cara's first year showing a pig. Austin had a harder judge this fair than he has in the past but still did well. It was hot and long but all in all a great fair. Here are a few of the photos I took.



Courtney during fitting and showing.
Cara during market round.


Austin in his market round.


Cael and Cason in the goat barn. They loved the goats.


We also did the tractor pull this year. The twins love it. This is a picture of Cael.


Just love Cason face here. He made it to the second round.


Cara didn't want me to take any pictures of her doing the tractor pull. But I had to.

We also got to go on rides with the cousins and friends. Cason and Cael just love Cami. We are so happy to have them closer by.



Ok I loved this. Cael got off a ride and decided to touch the wheel of a bike he just got off of. Then he touched his face. HAHAHA




Everyone on one ride.



Cael dancing. Thanks to Aunt Jennie the twins were able to make it to dance at the fair. The girls did not because of the sale. I was able to watch and then run back to the barn. Thanks Jennie!!!!



Cason



One last note. I am so proud of Courtney. This is the first year she was brave enough to carry her own rabbit to sale. Way to go Courtney. She still looks a little nervous. ;)

One fair down and one to go. See you at Adams County.

English Muffin Pizza

So not sure why we haven't done this in a really long time. Not even sure if we have every done this with the youngest three kids. Anyways Courtney asked if we can make English Muffin Pizza's. I used to make them when I was a kid. How fun. The kids loved it! We will have to do this again. So quick and easy. Great babysitting meal. (Poor Courtney missed the first round of pizza's. But we did it again for lunch the next day.)


They ate as they made them.
