4H & The County Fair

Once again Jessica was in 4H this summer. This year she chose to do "Dog Obedience" and "Cake Decorating."

This was the 2nd year for her and Jack. During her showing she got a bit of a surprise. The judge told her to take Jack off leash and do the routine. She had never practiced with Jack off leash and had never been told by her "coach" that she would have to. Jack did pretty good (although he did attempt to go through the fence at one point). The strange thing is no one else in her showing had to take the dog off the leash. Oh well she still did great!



This year they also had a costume contest for
the dogs. Jack was dressed as a Hershey bar.
Jessica wore a Hershey Jersey. When it
came time to judge everyone was declared a winner!


Her cake decorating came courtesy of her Grandma. Grandma Purdy has been decorating cakes for years so she agreed to teach Jessica. She ended up getting "Reserve Grand Champion" and therefore would have a cake to enter into the State Fair.

Her cake was a beach theme.


Kyle didn't enter 4H but he still participated in the pig wrestling at the county fair.
