Is Summer Really Over?

It's been a busy summer and I will let the pictures show and tell for me.

Garrett Mini 4-H Showmanship - June 2010

Now he wants to show chickens!
Showing Shetland sheep.
Back to his comfort level.
He did an awesome job!

Kaylynn's Grant County Fair Adventure!
Kaylynn earns Runner Up Best of Show (Reserve Grand) for the Sports project!
Pig show - busy and great day!
Receiving Champion Hampshire Gilt Award.
Showing off the awards of the day. The highlight - Champion Novice Showman!
Have to take the formal picture.
Kaylynn did a demonstration - thanks to everyone who helped her practice on vacation - she did great!


From Fair to Taylor Basketball Camp for a Week.
Off to basketball camp - showing defense stance.
Improved those dribbling skills.
Competitors better watch out - intense defense!

Eric has been giving Young Eagle Flights.
One of many flights.

Jasper County Fair - July 2010
Trisha shows a pig - winning her class!
Garrett with SPOT!
Eli and his Landrace - thanks for helping KK.
Papa and Jordan watching the pigs.
Look at that smile - what did Nana do to get that grim?
Smiling at Grandpa Meyer.
All grins.


Cedar Point Adventure
Kids and I waiting to get in the gate.
First roller coaster they attempted - I did it last.

Indiana State Fair - August 2010
Keeping an eye on the judge.
Look at that showman!
Then off to do an Action Demo at the 4-H Exhibit Hall. She had the biggest crowd to try hers out.
Open show Duroc - up to the top but weighed out - we still think there was something up with the scales!
Kaylynn in the Open Show.


Last Summer Blast of Fun
Thanks to the Moritz's for asking us to go along. We went to the preseason Colts game today and had a great time!
What a great picture of some great people!
The view from the high rise seats we sat in the first half.
Taken with zoom when Peyton received his MVP award.
Who is this guy?
Looking good!
Mom wanted a picture with the kiddos.
Moved to some empty seats down low for the second half. Kids went tothe rail for a picture.
When we were up high, Kaylynn took pictures on her phone through a pair of binoculars. Says it worked!
The man from the low seats.
Who let the gorillas in?
Flying high with the Colts!

What a great summer we have had, back to school tomorrow and soccer practices underway. Games will start the end of the month and will see Eric and I going different directions quite often. Hard to believe it is nearly the end of August but it is and the kids are heading back in the morning. I guess I should head to bed myself so we have a smooth morning!

  1. The pictures are awesome!! Thanks so much for posting them. I love to see what the kids are up to. I especially love Kaylynn's great showmanship skills and her long arms playing defense! And I love seeing Garrett with his contacts! Looking good, Scher family. Can't wait to see you in a few weeks!
