Showing her pig!

Julia showed a pig at the fair in the Open Show last night. She did AWESOME!!!! She has been practicing, but I still was a little worried about her getting scared when she got in the ring with all the other pigs. She proved me wrong and then some. She was not scared at ALL, she actually smiled the WHOLE time!!(The pig weighs 240+ pounds) Jerrod went out in the ring with her in case she got scared or needed help, but Julia kept telling him "Go away Daddy, I can do it myself!"!!!!

My little girl is growing up so fast!!!

Jude and Bapa waiting for the show to start.


Eating a snack before it was her turn to go and show.


She was WAY excited. She kept saying "I want to walk my pig NOW!".


Jude and Mimi waiting on Julia. (Jude was not happy he had to be held the whole time. He wanted down to crawl everywhere!)


In the holding pen waiting for her class to be called out. Getting last minute advice from Daddy and Uncle Bill.




FINALLY, time to show her pig. (Her pig is the red one.)




Smiling for the cameras.



She loved her hot pink whip Grandpa bought for her to show with!




All done showing and put the pig back in his pen.


Jude was glad we were done and could now see more of the fair!


Although her pig did not place in her class, the smile on Julia's face while showing made it all worthwhile! She is already talking about doing it again next year!
