I am working until 3:00pm today and then we are headed to the Twin Cities. Tomorrow we are going to the "Great Minnesota Get Together!!" Yes, the Minnesota State Fair. I am really looking forward to it.
The first place we will be headed is to the Dairy Show. One of my favorite 4-H'ers is showing his cow. I know Jasenko will do a great job!!
I am not looking forward to the crowds at the fair but I think it will be fun and a good learning experience for the kids.
More pictures to follow!!!

Ribbons
Time has gotten away from me this last month. We were so busy with getting ready for a
family reunion and getting ready for the fair.
Time just magically flew by.
After the fair I swear I could have slept for 3 days. I was exhausted. It was such a satisfied tired though. Tired
after a job well done.
I sat down Sunday night and wrote on the back of the kids
ribbons. Their names, August 2013, the class/group and what they
entered. I was/am so proud of the
kids. I hope someday they look back at
these ribbons as fondly as I look back on mine.
Speaking of ribbons… I need some opinions. I am trying to decide how to organize their
ribbons. I have a few thoughts/options.
1.)
Hang their ribbons in their room. This is what I did and I loved showing off my
ribbons. When I moved out though… they
all got thrown into a tub and are an unorganized mess now. They are bend and creased and in no order.
2.)
Put them in a book that stays organized and in
good condition. They can take the book
with them to Show/Tell and drag them out to show their aunties.
Ok… I think I’ve made up my mind. Option 2 is a clear winner for me. Your opinions?
