All four of them did an incredible job. There were two other girls there that were on the team last year and well, not that I want to brag but my four hippology kids had no problems getting up and talking to show participants and stating their oral reasons. They did wonderful! They each judged a class and they each gave reasons for a different class than the one they judged.
The coach was very impressed with their knowledge and their ability to speak in public as they did. The other two girls were very quiet and seemed unsure.
I am very proud of all four of them and can't wait to see how they continue to do at future shows!
Yesterday we sold hot dogs at TSC for a fundraiser and did not do as well as we wanted. It was a rather slow day and many people were not buying. So now I have 60 hotdogs in my freezer that didn't get sold.
Today I cleaned the house really good and Rich did some brushhogging. Then we had dinner and I am heading to book club in about an hour. Rich and T went to T's ball game and I am taking J to run the cross country course while I am at book club. We read "The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society" for this month. It is a series of letters written after WWII and is a bit of a love story, but not a romance. Now I am reading "Revenge of the Spellmans" by Lisa Lutz and I love these, they are quite hilarious!
Tomorrow I will do some sewing. I haven't done any since last week Wednesday or Thursday!

Sounds like you had a fun but busy weekend :)
So will you have to eat all those hot dogs now? Good on those kids for doing so well on the judging and public speaking. Thanks for mentioning the books you read. I'm always on the lookout for good recommendations.
