Clay County Fair

We continued our new little tradition of going to the Clay County Fair.

We left Friday after school and came back home Sunday night.

A quick trip, but we had a lot of fun!

Camryn and Aubrey reunited 

Steve showing "Gemstone"

Craig and Steve showing at the same time for Kaisand Cattle

"Cowboy Queen" and "Gemstone"

The Wynias, along with Grandma and Grandpa Van Grouw

joined us at the Fair.

Unfortunately the Van Grouws couldn't make it,

since Weston got sick on the way up. 

Suckers were a must to keep the kids entertained. 

Camryn, Jaelyn, Avery (and dolly Jordan), Gavin, and Aubrey

everyone had to check out the combine simulator 

a BEAUTIFUL day to walk around the Fair (hand in hand)
