Sydney & Jackson couldn't be more different. Sydney is there for the actual livestock & Jackson is there to do all the things. Jackson got to take a trip to the Kansas City Zoo and see the Disney Exhibition. Sydney entered multiple educational contests in the junior division at the American Royal, including Ag Sales, Interview, Social Media Marketing and Photography. She placed 2nd in the Interview Contest & 3rd in the Photography contest.
Both kids showed their pigs and did it to the best of their ability. They did not place as high as we wanted, but they got the experience & learned a lot. We are so proud of them & they were real travel troopers. I won't even tell you the awful story of Wade & the hotel. All in all it was a good trip.
While they were gone, I was solo. I barely slept and when I did sleep I was worried I would oversleep so I kept waking up because I was so worried. Oh the vicious cycle.
Thanks for tagging along,
Elly
