State Fair

I was a little apprehensive when I went to pick up my fair entries and 3 of the workers said..."So you're Donna Jackson".  Is this good or bad?  Did I do something wrong?  What did that mean?????

Well, it meant that I had won the most blue ribbons in the fair and I would get a little bonus $$ prize for doing so!  I was totally thrilled! 

Then they got to Amy ~ and unofficially, she won the most blue ribbons for the youth category and she would be getting the same little bonus $$ prize for youth.  We are doing the Happy Dance!

So we are busy preparing for next year!  Since we both like to craft anyway, this isn't a problem, issue, or burden!

Happy Crafting~

  2. Oh Donna, that is just wonderful! Congratulations to both you and Amy. What a nice little bonus for your savings account. I just love those little tender mercies. ;o)
