The County Fair is Over!

For his 1st year as a 4-H member, Caden did great at the county fair. For those who don't know, Caden was involved in 4-H this summer raising a lamb with a group of kids. They took turns feeding their lambs 2 to 3 times a week and then learning how to walk them, jump them, and present them for the fair. Caden won second place in his lamb's weight category for marketing (which means the lamb looked great to the judge in terms of someone buying it). Caden also won first place in the portfolio competition and received $25 for his prize. All of the kids submitted a portfolio as part of their 4-H project. We were surprised that Caden won first place since this was his first year and we didn't know what we were doing. But we are so proud of Caden! Here are some pictures from the fair!
