So this year Paige decided to do a sheep. We kept it at one of our friends house due to the fact that we have no where to keep a sheep at ours. It worked out pretty well, there were six kids that did it together so they just took turns feeding the sheep, which was nice because when Paige was gone or our fam was gone we did not have to worry about her sheep getting fed. It was a great experience for her, and more work than I think she thought it would be. Wyatt had a great time helping her when it was her turn to feed it or clean the pen( I think he actually liked it more than paige did) it made fair time have a whole different meaning this year though!!! Wed night was spent setting the cages up, Thursday most of the day was spent at the sheep show, and Saturday was spent at the sheep auction. So between the sheep and all of the time we had to spend doing fair cleanup and farm bureau stands and rodeo cleanup ( for the soccer and basketball teams) we did not spend a lot of time just hanging out this year, we were sick of being there haha!!! I'm not sure if she will do a sheep again next year but it was a great experience for her and the rest of the fam!!! He sure was a cute sheep!!

He is a cute sheep. So much fun. I have to say, as stressful as animals are at the fair, it really is a good experience.
haha....this post just made me laugh. I know all about showing sheep at the fair. And probably like all the parents out there, we do it because it is a good experience for the kids....but I always let out a huge sigh of relief when the fair is done!!! Congrats on surviving!!
