Mid-August in Wayne County means only one thing... County Fair time! It's a week filled with rodeos, parades, a demolition derby and tons of festivities. Our favorite is the Small Fry Rodeo where the kids get to rope, race, ride sheep and chase critters around the arena. Last year Kurtis caught the greased pig. This year he took 2nd in the Dummy Ropin' for his age group... pretty impressive considering he didn't start practicing until the week of the rodeo! Katie talks a good game, but when it came time to ride a sheep-- she chickened out. She came close to catching the greased pig and, luckily, didn't bring home another kitten! Both Wes & I usually get roped into helping out, so it's a busy evening. Turning 100+ kids and all those animals loose in one arena is nothing short of chaos, but we love it!!
