County Fair



We went to the fair with Mawmaw and Uncle Matt tonight. At first Carson was afraid of the rides, but he warmed up real fast. We forgot the camera so no good photos. We watched the barnyard olympis, demolition derby, and the highlight was the GREASED PIG chase. Uncle Matt couldn't resist signing up. Yes, that means you chase a greased pig around in the dirt and the 1st to catch it and put it in the cage wins. I thought it was awful - the poor pig was screatching so loud - it was terrified. I would be too with 20 grown men and women chasing me around. Well Matthew realized in the middle of the event that it was a litte much for the pig and backed off. Here's a pic (Uncle Matt's in the white stripped shirt)

Where's PETA when you need 'em?? Did Uncle Matt ruin his nice white shirt?? How did you get this photo without a camera?

The photo was on the county fair website. I cried....Darren and Brent think it's funny that I was upset, but it was very sad. The poor pig :(
