ANNOUNCEMENT:    YES, WE MET OUR GOAL!<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n

104 "Milkshakes" were consumed by our family<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n

over an 8 day period of time!<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n

Here are the pictures to prove it!

<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

First, these are the "milkshakes" a local Lions club were selling–<\/font><\/p>\n

unless it was a very, very hot day, or you got caught talking<\/font><\/p>\n

instead of eating it right away, you did not<\/em> need a straw!<\/font><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

The 4-H girls had to wait in line with<\/font><\/p>\n

their chickens to sell at the auction (for 3 hours!)<\/font><\/p>\n

so Daddy decided to share #100 with everyone!<\/font><\/p>\n

Anna didn’t have a wether so she sold a basket with goat milk, <\/font><\/p>\n

some cookies and goat milk soap!<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This is the goat tent, after the pens were taken down. <\/p>\n

We hung out here until the auction was over–other than when<\/p>\n

the girls were in the ring, then we were over at the show barn!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And this is looking "down over the hill" towards the lake.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Makes for a very pretty view!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

(That’s the Goat Barn, the Rabbit\/Poultry Barn, <\/p>\n

and over the hill is the Llama Tent.  We spent<\/p>\n

most of our week in those three barns\/tent!!!)<\/p>\n
