Clay City Fair Animals

Clay City Fair was open to the public on Thursday.  We attended Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings.  The first night I forgot the camera, so all the pictures are from Saturday night.  This is is how the kid spent the majority of their time at the fair. 
 Saturday night Jenna insisted that we go visit the pigs.  She got a kick out of them Friday night. 
 Mawmaw and Poppy came up for a visit.  The fair usually puts off a big fireworks display, but due to the drought, the fireworks were cancelled; fortunately Mawmaw and Poppy came to visit anyway!  Shelby and the steer.
 Jenna, Daddy and the calves.
The girls learned about cattle manure, too.  But hey, what would the livestock barn at the fair be without a little doo?
I didn't get any pictures of the sheep area.  We were very entertained by the sheep section.  Marvin Strough saw us going throught the livestock barn and asked the girls if they wanted to feed a sheep.  He went and got a small cup of food, gave Jenna a handful and she "fed" the sheep.  Donald the sheep was very friendly and the girls were very thankful to Marvin for letting them getting up close and personal with the sheep.

 Poppy and Mawmaw treated the family to ice cream.  It was a BIG hit because it was 100+ degrees outside.
