Fair fun!

I've been involved at the fair, showing, volunteering and watching since I began showing at 10 years old... ehmm ehmmm a mear 20 years ago... damn I'm old!!!!
My handsome man has been to the fair every year of his life. Thought I'd take a moment to look back...

2006 at three months old. My dad was on the fair board and mom was home because she was having back problems again. She'd have her last surgery a few weeks after this picture.

2007 at one year three months old.

We barrowed a goat from my uncle "Baby" and my handsome boy showed it in the pet look alike contest... the "kids" in their overalls and ball caps one first prize!! My baby's first fair trophy, I was pretty proud of him!!

2008 - 2 years, three months, ornery and bossy in his "papa britches"




Uncle Bubba helped him show a calf in the pee wee showmanship contest. He was more into the trophy than holding the halter for the calf.





2009 - 3 years 3 months! Papa britches again! Definately the man in charge, just ask him he'll tell you. This was the first year we didn't spend the whole weekend out at the fair in 20 years. My dad retired from the fair board after last year's fair. We didn't have any calves that were the right age for Squirt to show so we just went to walk through and check things out... had to take his picture though.





Aint he just cute!

And in six more years.......

He'll be showing like his momma did! Damn I was skinny... Excuse me, can I please have my old body back. It think it would be easier to turn 30 in a few weeks in this body!!!
