Our trip to the Fair

Sorry it's been a while... I will post what I have ready in a few Days

As A side note -I will be participating in Fight for Preemies day.
If you have a preemie and you know me please shoot me a message and send me a pic and a brief how big at birth and how long in the NICU you were. I'd like to raise awareness of Prematurity and also bring attention to HOW people can help.

We went to the South Carolina State Fair on Friday...


It was Sheep Day. Of Course if you've known Andrew for more than a week you already know he raised and showed sheep as a youth. He wanted to Introduce our kids to sheep and other animals.
NO we actually did not take our kids to a petting zoo at the fair. What you are going to actually see are the real deal. Animals being shown by exhibitors.


Hampshires- A sheep breed... They had a jacket on to keep their wool clean so they could be shown.


Jonathan was a little bit not sure about the whole thing so I carried him and was his buddy. We saw a lady grooming her sheep and stopped and talked to them for a wee bit. We asked first if we could pet her sheep.

This was a Scottish Black face sheep named "Maisy". Yes they have names because each one has a personality and the owner always knows each and every one by their name. He loved this amazing animal and how soft she was. and we know it was a SHE because there was nothing dangling in her hindwuarters ;).

Daniel however clearly did not want anything to do with it.


However when He took Daniel for a walk through the cow barn. Andrew told Daniel the cows were walking hamburgers and he became interested. LOL

Here was another PIC of Jonathan. He decided to do this on his own. He dressed up like a banana.


Be blessed and oh yes Happy 12th Anniversary Andrew.
