Three of my grandkids (John's babies) showed their animals at the fair yesterday and today. Here are the results:

Granddaughter - Double Breasted Tom Turkey - Grand Champion
Natilda - replacement turkey hen - Reserve Grand Champion

Granddaughter - Pigmy Goat - Grand Champion
Second Pygmy Goat shown by someone else, Reserve Grand Champion
Grandson (5 yrs old) Baby Pigmy Goat - First Place

Granddaughter - Guinea Pig - First Place
Grandson - Guinea Pig - Second Place

All of these animals were raised by the kids with very little help from the parents.

Sad note: Matilda thought my chair was a turkey because it's dark grey and black. Not sure whether she thought it was the love of her life or her mother, but she followed me around everywhere I went. Even tried to go to the bathroom with me! She will be sold at auction on Friday, no doubt to be eaten for Thanksgiving if not sooner. Regardless, I'll never see her again. WWWAAAAAAAAAA! No more turkey following me around gobbling. Sob!

I'm so proud of my grandkids I can hardly see straight!
