It's Show Time!

Since I've met Joel, I've started going to livestock shows. This is a whole new experience for me! Being from Broken Arrow, showing animals was not the most popular activity they offered. I remember seeing FFA jackets, but honestly I didn't really even know what it was. Joel grew up in the country, showing livestock. It took some getting used to for me, but I've come to really enjoy them (once you get past the smell)! Joel has always said that he wants Molly to show livestock when she is old enough. I thought it would be a few more years at least...but she started this past weekend! She was in the Pee Wee show at the Wagoner Junior Livestock Show! She did really good, until she decided that she needed to suck her thumb. However, she was intrigued again when the judge gave her a ribbon. Something else to suck on! :) Here's some pics of our little country girl!

Isn't she the cutest cowgirl!?!

Sucking her thumb! I know, she's going to kill me when she's a teenager.

Getting her ribbon from the judge.

Her cousin, Chooch, that was actually showing the lamb.

Before I finish, I just have to give a shout out to Chancey (Chooch) for winning GRAND LAMB and GRAND STEER at the Wagoner County Show. We are proud of you! Good work!

Chancey getting his trophy with the Grand Lamb, and the judge picking his nose. It gets dusty in the barns. :)
