Blue Ribbons at the State Fair!

Emmi decided to enter some of her pottery in the state fair.  I decided that it might be kind of fun to see how my counted cross stitch would do.  Emmi (thank you Emmi) did all the work.  She did all the entry paper work and hauled them down to the fair for the judging and exhibit.  Here are the results.  I entered three pieces.  Two received blue ribbons and one didn’t get anything but it was displayed.  Actually the one that I thought might possibly get a ribbon is the one that didn’t.

We met the Gertsons at the fair and did all the usual things.  Went on rides, had dinner, saw the animals (mine and Lynda Ann’s favorite thing) and ended up the evening by Emmi, Andrew, Mallory, Abby, Hayley, Lynda Ann and I all going down the big yellow slide at the same time.  Emmi hit the bottom first followed by Lynda Ann (who somehow passed me up on the way down) followed by me and the rest of the kids.

Pictures of Emmi’s pottery entries that also got ribbons!  Way to go Emmi!

Some random shots of the evening and oh yes, Mallory got to hold a duck and get it started in a race.  The duck she started came in second!
