We started out our Saturday bright and early at the fairground clean up. I think the fair grounds are officially ready for the fair to begin on Wednesday evening now! The kids worked really hard and we got a lot accomplished in a pretty short amount of time. Cameron saved the day by rescuing the ladies cleaning the concession stand from a killer tree frog.
After cleaning the fairgrounds, and Colin getting home from his first football practice, Jim and the boys were off to help Jim's parents unpack a van of office equipment, while the girls and I put 26 quarts of zucchini in the freezer.
My uncle recently got re-married, and he and his new wife hosted a nice family party today. Quincy and Preston had fun playing with their cousins!

We spent our evening with our friend Brian helping the kids shave their pigs. They all look much younger and their muscle tone looks much more distinguished now! The kids did a pretty good job of trimming their own hogs this year...with very little help other than on the ears- we had to noose their noses to accomplish this task other than on the very friendly Jenius, who laid very still and let us trim all around his face and ears! Thank you to our friends Brain and Julie, who took this evening to help us out even though they are going to the hospital to have a baby tomorrow (I am sure you probably had other things to do tonight -so we really appreciate your help!)
