Last weekend our best blue ribbon boy showed Chops the pig at our local fair. He had such a blast and still talks about 'his' pig.
Chops the pig is/was (not sure if he's been taken to the butcher or not yet) a ginormous pig weighing in at around 250 plus pounds. It's funny to me that C was not scared or intimidated at all by the pig. I definitely can't say the same for myself.
Cole is definitely blessed to have two of the sweetest *pretend* girl cousins that love him so much and graciously share their pig so that he can participate too.
The PeeWee pig show was definitely like attending a comedy show. I laughed and laughed. Cole happily talked to the judge and I'm pleased to share that everything he reported was appropriate, just not accurate. He told the judge his pig's name was Bacon and that she loved to eat lots of Bacon. Hahaha! Oh the irony.
There is just something to say about the heart of a teenager when they are kind and loving to little people even when they don't have to be. Cole is truly blessed.
I took this photo to show just how BIG Chops was. Unfortunately the photo doesn't share how loud she was. When I say *she* I think it's a girl. May have to check with Mr. Moon on that one.
Pee wee showmanship is THE BEST! :) We always put it on at our jackpot show for the littles and they think they are so grown up, and I just love watching them run around. Hope the rest of fair went well!
ReplyDeleteWay to go Cole! What a special memory for all of you.
ReplyDeleteLove this! Cole is such a cutie! Love the part about what he said was "appropriate"… you never know what they'll say next! ;) Great post, great memories documented!
