Going to Junior Nationals

We leave tomorrow! Maybe? We're not sure whether we are leaving tomorrow or Sonday. Mom Ally Jo and I may leave tomorrow to make sure the spot Dad and I reserved yesterday doesn't get messed with. But if we can't get ready we will just leave with Dad Sonday morning. Ally Jo had a great time at softball camp and I have enjoyed my new Ipod. I will post about how things are going at the show in Columbus Indiana. I will not know how I actually did until next Friday night at the awards banquet. So I will post about how I think I did. An contest or 2 will be held each day this coming week. Pearl is staying with Mimi and Pa and Sara and Ruby will be accompanying us on the trip. I bet she'll have alot of fun. As far as cows we are taking H for me, CC for Ally Jo, and L for Ally Jo.

another good show

H won the breed at the district show. She behaved well as usual even though she had to stand in the ring for a long time. I am making good progress on my reading project as well. I bought a new Ipod tonight with my show money. The knew Nanos have speech enabled menues. It will be very nice to be able to use more of the functions and find songs easier. Ally Jo goes to softball camp tomorrow and we leave for nationals next Saturday or Sonday. The garden is growing very well and has gotten alot bigger.

Wednesday

I got started on my summer reading assignment for Honors English 1 today. I have to do well on it to make it in to Honors English next year. I have to read Fahrenheit 451 and complete a journal about it. The journal has four different parts some of them I do while reading some I do after reading. Also we take an exam over it when school starts, that makes me hope summer lasts a long time even more. So I got started and thought it was going to be realy hard. So like any good teenager knows when faced with a problem go eat lunch. After lunch I returned to work and it seemed much easier. The good news is that it has continued to be fairly easy. I have to turn it in next Friday because we will be gone the Friday after that when it is realy due. Other than that today Mom and I did a few things here around Georgetown. We don't have much planned for the rest of the week either. But we are going to our district cattle show on Saturday.

Great Show

My Heifer nicnamed H won the Woodford county fair! It was a nice surprise because she was the smallest heifer in the ring for Supreme champian. Also I spent the last two nights with Mimi and Pa. I had Pa help me get a few things I needed and helped Mimi in the yard. My golf has also improved.

First Week of Summer

Pa and I had a great time at the lake and caught 5 bass. The junior simmental get to geather went well and so did my birthday party. I got the Bose speakers that I wanted and lots of itunes money. Also it is now afficial I get my braces taken off on July the 7th. They also said that I may not have to have the extra gum between my top frunt teeth removed either. That would be a good thing not to have to worry about. We are going to our first county fair cattle show tomorrow. It will be Woodford county. It starts at 9 A.M. so we will have to get up nice and early. The good thing is that it isn't that far away. I am enjoying sleeping in and staying up a little bit later. That is all for now, I'll post the show results tomorrow evening.
