The second half of the State Fair was filled with calves.
Preston showed one of our bulls at the state fair last year and ever since then has been begging to do it again.
Friday afternoon was the Simmental bull open show.
He got a few last minute tips from Dad and Grandpa before going in the ring.
He insisted on wearing his cowboy hat in the show ring.
I love when he drags his bull around like it's a big dog!
He went in all by himself this year!
He's going to be a fantastic little showman in the years to come.
Even though the judge didn't love his calf, he did enjoy talking with Preston.
There's room for improvement but he did a great job getting him set up and walking him around the ring.
He had fun and he brought home another ribbon to hang on his wall!
On Saturday, Peighton showed her two heifers, Cinderella and Drizella in the Simmental Open show.
She and Cinderella did a great job.
Somehow, the judge remembered Peighton from previous shows.
He also appreciated her ear tags and mentioned their names as he talked about her heifers!
I know both of those things impressed Peighton!
Both kids did a fabulous job at the State Fair this year.
Can't wait to see what next year brings as Peighton will finally be old enough to show in the 4-H show!
