LS Fair 2009

LS Fair 2009
Jennibelle got to go to the fair with her PreKindergarten class Thursday morning.
She had a great time with her friends but was very excited for the Pig Race that night.

Jenni is in all pink, up top

Jenni is very social.
Here are her 2 Sophia friends.

She got to learn a lot about animals...
She learned that goats like Mums,
even though they are decoartions.
(Notice the Mums now on the ground!)

She watched a cow give birth.
Unfortunately, it was a stillbirth,
but she does not know that.
She says the Dr had to just take the baby away.
Of course, I cried.
That poor cow just stood there eatting throughout the entire delivery and never even looked up once.
I guess they weren't cursed with pain in labor, just us!!
When we went back later that night, her placenta was still just hanging there (Yuck!)
Here's a picture of her after delivery, b/c I was SHOCKED by the size of her utters!




We went back at 7pm with Jaylee & Jason for the Pig Race.
The pictures stink...
This year I concentrated on video taping it to get it to Seattle.
Mandy did my camera the best she could, but it's not a good one.
(Hint, hint... Bday is in 2 days!!)
This picture is of Jenni's group getting ready to go and all gresed up.
She's in the middle in all pink.
She ALMOST caught the pig...
technically, she did catch it b/c she had it by the hind legs but couldn't get it up into her hands.
So, she let go.
We are VERY proud of her bravery lately.
She is just a bundle of joy!!!
She ended up chasing her friend Julia for part of the race!
There were 3 pigs and it took close to 10 mins for the girls to catch them all.


This video is of Jenni's group too, but it's real hard to see her,
just fun to watch all the kids running.
At the end of this shot, she gets her hands on that pig, yet again!
The real video will be on it's way to Seattle Monday morning.



By the time Jaylee's group go tout there, it was completely dark and the still camera didn't catch any of it!
Here she is at her 2nd favorite exhibit... the baby chicks!

This year, Jenni was too scared to hold one, but she did pet Jason's.


Aunt Meg took Jaylee back to the fair the next night to see the horse activites since she didn't get to go during the day.

Fun times and good milkshakes!!!

One of these years I need to come out and watch the pig races. It looks like so much fun. Jenni - so close. Thanks for all the updates on your family. We love hearing all about it and seeing all the pictures.
