This year, Zachy was our only mutton buster. Last year, Nate was so big the sheep just sat down and so he bowed out this year. Zac had practiced (on our backs) and had been well coached by both of us.... because um, you know, both Tim and I are expert mutton busters! Anyway, the anticipation of the ride and the wait were the best part! The actual ride itself barely took place.... that is Zac man fell off the ole sheep when he was barely out of the shoot! I'm thinking bronco bust'in and bull riding are not in our future (thank goodness)!
Nana and Papa Doc came up to watch the big event and to take the boys around the fair. The boys love having them come up for this yearly event. Now the fair is all about rides, seeing their friends, and fair food..... all too soon it will be about hanging with the guys, flirting with the girls, and stealing kisses! Time please STOP!
The following photo won a first place blue ribbon this year at the fair. It was taken last year at the fair 2010!
