2010 Livestock Show and Auction

2010 was Mallory's FIFTH year raising lambs and showing them at the Tooele County Fair. It wasn't a bad year at the auction either, despite the stuggling economy. The buyers in Tooele County really come through for the kids in 4-H and FFA. Even though we have been doing this for five years now, it still warms my heart when Malz enters the arena. She has changed so much this last year....It is fun to watch her grow and develop!















Finally, I just had to share a minute of the fair with you. After three days of washing, showing, judging, and waiting, the sell took about one minute. All the time and hard work leads up to this...(this poor lamb was ready for the auction to be over too!)

Duck Creek with the Nielsen's

Last week we headed down south to Duck Creek with my family. We had a blast! It did rain a bit (quite a bit) but we still had a great time just being together. Here are some pics of the trip!
