Random Happenings!

Levi had fun getting ready for the fair. Every Monday night he practiced with his club. I have to be honest, when we brought the sheep home they were a bit wild. As time moved on the sheep continued to be wild. Chris kept reassuring me they were doing just fine. I was sure we were going to have a rodeo when fair time came.

Anna keeps growing and getting more plump all the time. This photo is about two days after we brought her home.

Whit has had a blast this summer riding his bike. He thinks he is so grown up!

Anna is still eating and sleeping and pooping and growing and crying.

Every night Whit asks for a bubble bath.

Anna is still growing!

The fair finally came around and we did not have any rodeos. Chris was right! This is Levi waiting to go into the show arena with his ewe lamb.

This is our brood taking a break at the fair. Anna was a trooper at 2.5 weeks old.

Here is one of Levi's lambs getting a beauty treatment before the show.

As you can see we had some extra help.

Casey, Levi and Heston each entered a chicken in the fair and won some ribbons plus some premium money which is great for snow cones.

This is Levi with his ewe lamb. There were 110 lambs at the show. They had 11 classes with 10 lambs in each class based on weight. He took second place with both of his lambs in both of his classes. The top two lambs from each class are invited back to the finals.

Here are his two lambs in the final competition. The boy with the red undershirt is showing Levi's second lamb. Levi ended up taking 13th & 14th place out of 110 sheep. The top 15 sheep in the show are called the star class.We were so excited for him!

Here is Anna taking her first real bath. Her umbilical cord finally came off!

Levi and Casey took a horse class all summer. Last Monday they had their final show. Casey chose not to participate because she didn't want to be in front of all the people. Levi had a blast and won some ribbons and a trophy.

This is a photo of dad helping Levi get ready.

Here is Anna. Still growing! She is about 8 1/2 pounds already! At her two week checkup, they wanted her back to her birthweight. She was a pound and one ounce over her birthweight.

Here are some videos for your viewing pleasure. They are random but cute!
