This is our experience at the show with Nate.
I arrived Wednesday night with Mr. Dave. We drove up seperately from Lynn and Nate. I had missed them both the couple days they were up there. There was a talent show that night, which my sister won. She sung the "what's your daddy's name" song. There were some other people there and one guy was like drunk and fell off the stage with his Guitar. Funny.
We headed up on Thursday morning to see my nephew and niece do the swine show. Ashton won champion showmanship, Matthew lost cause he didn't tuck in his shirt. But he did win some other type of trophey for his pigs. ( I think there was a knowledge test in there ).
Below is a picture of Nate during the show. He was actualy occupied with playing with the rocks during most of the show.
One of the "rides" that they had at the fair was a huge blow up slide. Nate loved it. He had to have gone up and down it over 50+ times during the three days we were there. he started out the week not being too good at it, but by watching other kids he learned how to bounce down the thing and roll.
Lloyd Dufer had a smathering of John Deere tractors out for display. His wife let Nate sit on one. He had a blast. Lloyd had about 5 tractors, he also had an old time trasher. They ran it during the fair and on Friday night, they had a "Straw Scramble". There was candy and Money buried in the straw and they kids had to go in and find it. Nate really wasn't too interested in finding any, more interested in taking the straw and carrying it over to the street. funny. he did get some pieces of candy, and was eating them as he found them.
Thursday night, we entered Nate into the Little Mr. Pioneer contest. there were 13 boy entries, and only one actually won, not Nate. the boy next to Nate was grabbing his arm though, it was cute. Guess I should have dressed him up also.
Here's a video of Nate and the slide:
Well, I have more pictures and stories to share, so I'll have to stop with these for now...
Later,
