July: Jackson County Fair

This year the kids and I went to the fair and were joined by Nana, Grandpa and Dad. We had to make a pit stop at the mall prior to the fair and were given free sunglasses. We were a bunch of cool cats!


The first event we went to see after viewing all of the cute animals, including some amazing piglets was the dog flying act.



We watched these dogs do amazing things...and their owners look ridiculous!


Speaking of ridiculous, our next event was watching the pig races.

I had the honor of opening the gates to start the races. they are lightning fast!


Then it was time for the main event. The cattle auction. We had a friend who was auctioning her cow. The event was amazing. Her cow was beautiful.


We thought we might bid but the bidding got quite expensive and we all know how infrequently Hall's eat meat!


It was a great event!
