Chad and his friend decided to skip the butcher and brought the pig home to chop up...and yes, they shot it there in the drive way. Some days I think I am turning into a hick...but this day, our friend Andrew called me a city girl for my reaction to the event...THANK YOU ANDREW!!!!!!
Pinewood Derby night! Hunter and Taylor had such a good time. They both received awards for place and how the car looked.
Taylor's first pinewood derby and he walked out with 2 trophies and a second place finish!
The crowds at Wal-mart were amazing...I hate to admit I am as crazy as them...
It didn't take long before...they were all fast asleep!
On this prom night, I experienced something as strange as I have ever seen (and you all know I have traveled and seen many, many strange things). In this small valley, on prom night, at 10:00 p.m., there is something called promenade. Right in the middle of the dance, in the high school gym, the towns people start arriving and sitting in the bleachers. They sit and watch. Then at about 10:15 the kids who would like to be "promenaded" are presented to the town and do a choreographed ballroom style dance for the watching crowd. Then the prom court is introduced and then they all go back on to the court/dance floor and continue the dance...and the towns people/families either leave or go take a few pictures or talk to the kids. And the dance ends at 11:30 so that all the kids can be home before midnight, Sunday morning.

What was your reaction Madam City Girl? ;D
What a fun way to do the dance! Getting the whole town involved.
Very fun pictures on this last post but I'm soooo done with the pig! And I was born in Iowa! Please post something else so I don't see that dead hunk of soon-to-be-bacon whenever I stop by! Anything of any of your lovely family would be very acceptable!
The pig shooting at your house makes me think of a very sad but funny scene on Napoleon Dynamite.. lol. Crazy thing about prom.. I guess there are no after proms there. We had a thing where you are announced if you want to be at the beginning of the prom but no dancing and such involved. hmm..
the word verification I have to do is this buthol yep it really is that! HAHAHA
