Me, far right

I placed first in this class, I was soooooo excited because this is my first year doing poultry showmanship and everyone else in my class had been doing it for a while.

Almost every night all the 4-Hers got together and played a game of soccer on the big field beside the barns.

I got to help bottle feed a baby goat every morning!

Turkey Girl

I am the Turkey Girl, not the Goose Girl...I DESPISE geese with a passion and I probably won't ever have any if I can help it=o)

Anyways, I'm doing a market project in 4-H this year...I'm raising turkeys and I'm gonna sell one in the auction at the fair. The other ones we are gonna keep for ourselves :D I didn't like them at all when I first got them....but they are pretty cool now, and they are absolutely GORGEOUS when the sun shines on them. I tried to get a picture of my tom all puffed up and strutting, but he wouldn't do it for me :P so I'll have to try again another time, haha

I herd them...they actually do pretty good though =o)

Butter is pretty fascinated with them, but he doesn't bug them too much....he does try to eat their food though!

I am still alive....

So...I haven't posted for like 4 months now....Wow! crazy....but I really need to and I have a bazillion things to post on but I don't know what to do first...so it might take me a little bit to figure it out...I have pictures of the schooling show from May and pictures of the fair....and pictures from when our family was here...so it's just trying to figure out which one to do first, but I just wanted to say something so nobody thinks I'm dead=o)

Here's a cute picture I took of Butter a few months ago, he let me put the bandanna on and then I set the hat on his head and he sat there long enough for me to grab the camera and take one picture and then he moved=o) But I thought it was very cute...

These I took one night when dad wasn't home and Chord had to grill the hotdogs for us...I thought he looked very...ummm...grownup out there grilling us dinner=o)

Well there's a few pictures for now and I'll try and get some more on soon.

SOOOO CUTE!!!

My horseback teacher's mare Ellie, had her baby on Sunday night. It's a little black and white filly and she is soooo adorable...These first two pictures my teacher sent to me, but the rest I took.

She really bonded with Mrs. Ginger, because Ellie had the baby outside the little shed, and Mrs. Ginger wanted her inside the shed, so she went out and moved her and in that little amount of time that Mrs. Ginger held her the baby bonded with her, and it's sooo sweet watching her with my teacher.

Mrs. Ginger thinks she might be homozygous. That means that she will always drop pinto foals, but they can only tell by DNA tests...so I think my teacher is going to get some tests done to find out.

So there's no name for her yet, but when they give her one I'll be sure to tell you;o)
