State Fair

Last weekend Allison and I made the annual trip to the state fair to see some sows, plows and cows. We saw a lot of really great looking projects in the 4-H building and Allison was amazed at how a judge could rank a bunch of noisy sheep that "all looked exactly the same." she was further amazed at his comment on the lamb that won when he said "she has tight shoulders that flirt into nice wide hips." i wonder what kind of romantic things this guy says to his wife at home.....

We spent a lot of the day with Jason and Brenda, Brenda's mom, dad and sister, and Ally and Drew. It was fun seeing the kids perspective on things and their excitement for everything.

Later that day we met up with Allison's mom and dad. We ate a great supper at the Pork tent and then went to the Switchfoot concert. They put on a pretty good show.

Other highlights were: big ice cream cones, delicious tenderloins, the big slide, mullets, tractors, the butter cow, and beautiful weather.

here's a couple of poor quality pictures...
