State Fair!!!!! :D

On Monday my family and I went to the state fair! 

We went to the state fair because I had a 4-H needle arts project on display.  I made two crochet coffee cups and three doughnuts. We woke up at five in the morning and left at about six got there at like 8:30.  I got a blue ribbon on my project!  I really liked the judge I had this year.  Some times you will get a judge that doesn't say much or is kinda mean but, I had a very nice one :)   

When we were waiting for my judging time we went to the Education building.  While walking around we got to this booth that had a Justin Bieber cut-out at it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(I don't know why they would put a different shirt on him when the one he was wearing was perfectly fine)  I freaked out and kinda yelled Justin Bieber and ran to get my mom so she could take my picture by him :)

 
 
After my judging we were hungry so we went and got some thing to eat.  We always get this tornado potato thing that is a couple potatoes cut up in one long strip and then fried.  I always get a cinnamon roll.  The cinnamon rolls they make them all day long so they are fresh and they are SO good!!!  We also had milk and cookies!  I also had a Falafle.  I was going to get one last year but forgot so I had to wait a whole year to get one and it wasn't that great :(  It is not the kind of spices and stuff we normally eat.  I was disappointed. 
   
When we were looking at the stalls in the grand stand I saw a One Direction purse and I was trying to get my dad to buy it for me but he wouldn't :'(   
 
One of my good friends just entered a convent :'( and for her graduation gift I gave her a stuffed cat.  So when she left she gave me the cat to take care of.  So I then took the cat (who's name is Clover) to the state fair so I could send pictures of her to my friend.  Here are the pictures I sent.    We then left the fair at about 4:30, which is when rush hour starts, so we went geocaching instead of sitting in traffic!  We got home at like 9:00.  It was a long day and we were gone about 15 hours :P but, it was super fun and I can't wait till next year!!!

Sewing camp!!!!!

Sewing camp!!! Friday night and Saturday was our county's sewing camp. On Friday night we made potato bags for a community service project. You would think sewing a potato bag would be easy right? Wrong! I had to rip out a lot be cause I sewed it the wrong way the first couple of times. They didn't have a lot of potato bag fabric cut out so some people made wheelchair caddies for the people in the nursing homes to sit on. Saturday was the day you made what ever you signed up to make. This year made a messenger bag and my brother made a quilted pillow. My brother cut his finger on the rottery cutter when he was cutting his squares for his pillow. He has been kinda sick all week so he was sniffing and coughing all day. When we were leaving he started coughing except this time he threw up. We had just finished talking to someone from our club so she got us a Ziploc bag for us.

Clouds!


Yesterday, on our way to officer training, I was trying to get a good picture of the sun because it was soooo pretty. We had the camera with because I'm historian for our club this year and was going to take pictures of the new officers. After couple of minutes the sun was too low so I started taking pictures of the clouds because they were pretty. Here are some of the pictures I took.

Candle

Yesterday at our 4-H meeting we made a candle out of a little milk carton, melted wax, ice cubes, and some string. The first one my brother made broke so he had to make a new one. My candle is purple but my brothers is red.
