I can NOT believe that June is just about here! Already nearly every weekend in June on my calendar has something written on it! Teen fellowship for the two older girls, baptism for Hannah, 4-H community service activities, Linear Appraisal for our herd, vet checks to get done before Fair Season... FAIR SEASON!!! ACK!
Fair season is such a busy time. We have cut some of the smaller fairs from our plans but have added a few bigger ones. Thankfully this has taken some of the pressure off of the month of August! We have three shows in July, one in August, three in September, and three in October.
In order for Abby to be eligible to compete at the Big E she needs to compete at a local 4-H fair. So, there is one more in August, but only Abby is showing at that one. It is a 4-H fair in another county. She is showing there because she will be at camp the weekend of the 4-H fair in our county. This fair will be relaxing as it is just up the road from my parent's house (where my brother and sister-in-law are now living). We can relax by the pool, sipping lemonade, after a long day at the fair. Who needs Disneyland vacations???
(Oh! and for those of you wondering about Sam's Lieutenant's test, the rumor is the list will be out on Tuesday June 2.)
This is my journal about my life as a wife, a mom, a grandma, a retired farmer, former foster parent, retired homeschooler, and current house parent. Join me on my journey.

JUNE!
It's June!
The younger girls are counting down the days to the last day of school. Abby is counting down the days to North Stonington Fair. Nathalie is counting down to the 4H Fair. Hannah is counting down to the day she picks up her new alpine doeling.
Sam and I are counting down the days to when we can stop driving to all the doctor appointments, girl scout meetings, and 4H events!
Everyone is counting down to 4H Camp!!
We are celebrating Abby's birthday on Friday. I can't believe she is going to be 14! She'll have a party during the day with her homeschooled friends and then a party at my mom's in the evening for just the family.
Saturday is the tag sale at the Rodgers' house. I really hope I can sell some of this stuff and make some money. Although the real goal to just get rid of the clutter. It is amazing the list I have gathered together:
computer monitor
computer printer
books
girl's clothing (bags and bags)
women's clothing (I have finally given up the idea that I'll ever be a size 12 again!)
craft supplies: Pipe cleaners, cloth doilies, paints, etc.
swing set (missing one swing)
If I could figure out a way to get the old woodchipper out there, it would go too.
Hmmm.. wonder if Sam would notice if his old truck was missing....?
