The fair was August 6-8, 2009. Tyler and Kody had been working all summer long to show their sheep at the county fair. The time had finally arrived. With much anticipation, we loaded up the camp trailer, the sheep, Trixie, and ourselves and spent 4 days at the County Fair.
We learned a lot about sheep, we learned a few things we will do differently next year, and we learned that the camp trailer is a must for mom! Tyler and Kody seemed to have a great time seeing old friends and meeting new friends.
Tyler and Kody both won blue ribbons in their market class and both placed about 5th or 6th in their fitting and showmanship classes. They both were able to sell their sheep at the Jr. Livestock sale on Saturday for a decent price. Overall it was a positive experience and one that we will be doing again next year.
