A Fair Fair Season

It’s been a pretty fair Fair Season around our house. It started with Katrina going over to a neighboring county to enter her rabbits in the junior fair there. She won the Showmanship Award as well as the Best in Show for her little half-lop Pipi.

Back here at our home County Fair, everyone but Dad and Nathanael had some entries. And everyone won something.

Mom one some red ribbons for her antique doll house furniture, some crocheting, and some bead work.
LoriAnn won blue ribbons for her homemade Barbie clothes, her watercolor, and some winter mitts she made. She won a third place ribbon for her homemade stuffed dragon, and won Best In Show for her collection of poetry.Katrina won blue ribbons for her Lego castle, a short poem, and a beaded bracelet. Then she won Best In Show for her horse drawing.
Even Kenaniah won a blue ribbon for his collection of toy football helmets.
As I said, all in all a pretty fair Fair Season. Guess next year Nathanael and Dad will have to get in on the act!

Another Birthday!!

Almost 10 years to the day from the oldest boy's birthday, we have the youngest. Nathanael is 15. Kenaniah is now 5! Five years old! He wanted a "Mustang" birthday this year, as in the Ford variety. So mom whipped up a nice red car cake, he got a couple of Hot Wheels, and he's ready to go. Funny how both boys' birthdays involved cars (the older one is ready to drive them!) Here's a couple of pics.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KENANIAH!
