Have been busy around here lately, volleyball games ...season is about over, ..one more game....the local fair...games...garden work....among just everyday things....
Volleyball
The oldest daughter has one more game of Volleyball....I was upset along with her at one game...she didn`t get to play at all , and it was away game...the last game she got to play and their was a c-set and she scored about 5 points for the team on both games...thru her serving the ball...very proud of her...on that game the JV won and the varsity won as well...they almost had the C-set won as well.
Local Fair
yes, our county does have a fair. It wasn`t gonna happen until a few people got together and made it happen. My oldest won the queen contest...I thought she looked good up on the stage...I know she was the only contestant in that category...but so happy she won.....so needless to say that was last weekend....We enjoyed the fair to a point....they needed more animals and their was no rides this year, in which I think hurt the fair...Friday night was cold and rainy and the big day was the demo derby in which was cold as well.
A few complaints ....they need something to bring the people in during the day on Saturday so people can enjoy the fair and the local shop....I did not see a whole of people buying anything...not that many vendors.....their was an antique tractors displayed...
this poor guy never moved....lol
A petting zoo was there , we didn`t go in at all, just to pet them was 2.00 a person and most of the animals we have....so didn`t see a need to go and pay just to pet these animals...
I did want to grab the wee little pig and carry it around inside my coat though...the oldest daughter wanted to do this as well...it just looked so cold running around the pen...........
a min horse to pet and ride ....rides were 2.00 extra if u want to ride...
Hopping it up is over the youngest daughter...her team won one game over all and almost won the last game....
on to the garden...
I plant all of these bulbs yesterday ...before the freeze we had last night...tulip and Easter Lillie bulbs I had dug up in the garden....the new roses I planted was mulched a few days ago as well...all of the cannas were dug up and put away for the winter...
When I was mulching the roses the other day I had help...the wee little kitten buttercup was helping me ...I would go to the mulch pile and get a bucket full and then take it to the garden and buttercup was in tow along with Trixie the mighty Chihuahua and Bandit the crazy heeler....When I was mulch the grapes for the winter Buttercup tried to jump and settle on the mums in the above picture that is why the they are broke down in the middle...it was nice and round before that....
My youngest also had a birthday, cant believe she is 12 already. We took cupcakes to her school on her Birthday hope fully we will be able to celebrate her birthday this weekend ,since hubby is off the whole weekend , which don't happen very often....
Well just thought I would catch up some since I haven`t post in a couple of weeks...hopefully things will slow down a bit....everyone have a blessed day and weekend!
