Day 4...August 26

Last night was the Livestock dance, and it was Awesome! It was held in the judging area of the Swine Barn, and it was crowded. It is every year. The music was pumpin' and everyone was packed in like sardines. It makes for an exciting experience. Refreshments including go-gurts, rice krispie bars, chips, and fruit punch were available for the 4-Hers. The Ambies cleeaned u after the dance and we found a pair of shoes. How someone manages to lose their shoes and not notice, I'll never know.

This year the Ambies are in the State Fair Parade. Although we aren't there for 4-H. The Bever Landscaping company has asked us to represent them in the parade. So almost every day there will be an ambie in a Buddy the beaver costume and two holding the Bever Landcaping sign. Be sure to watch the parade and wave to us. Pictured below is Tim Schilling in the costume and Alissa Morson and Rebecca Lee holding the sign.
Today I watched Kristoffer Olson's Magic Show on the outside stage by the 4-H building. The show is very family friendly and is great for a few laughs. Below is a picture of the paper bunny out of a paper hat trick, and the magic tassels trick.
