It's Been a While

OK, I know it has been a while, but I have had a really good reason.  It is Summer time and what happens for us country folks during Summer, but Fair time.  Cotton Candy, Corndogs, Fried Twinkies the list goes on.  So my daughter Amanda had a wonderful fair this year she entered 13 photos, a quilt, a piggy apron, a cupcake placemat, a handmade ruffled carry bag and entered her scrapbook along with showing her lamb "DUKE".  She also was honored as one of the 2012 SLO County Young Achiever's.  This honor is based on an application of merit from their 4-H Community Leader, who nominates them on their 4-H accomplishments, school accomplishments and Community Service efforts, these are all taken in to consideration when the Young Achiever's are selected.  Amanda felt very honored and lucky to be nominated.  You can see Amanda's Story Board on display at the Mid-State Fair, Paso Robles, CA, local libraries, city & government offices, along with the other winners.  Congratulations Amanda!
