A Night at the Hoewdown!!!

We had a fantastic ward activity on Saturday night. A Ward Country Hoedown and Fair! My mum is Activites Chair person and along with her great team of helpers, managed to create an unbeleivable activity. There would have been about 120-130 people and many even adventured out to dress the part! I'm so ticked off that we didn't take a family photo before we left. We all looked great! There were games, competitions, line dancing, taste testings, bush dancing and plenty of food! Something for everyone!

Some of the greates taste testing with some beautiful jams and preserves! I got all the recipes! Yeh!

Badge Toss - Same as a coin toss

Bowling in the foyer!!!!

The HotDog Stand! Jason made about 60 of his famous corn dogs! One of his Cubs asked me twice when "Kenue", Jason's cub name - (meaning bald eagle!) was coming because he was making him some corn dogs! They loved them. I didn't even get one!

Tin Cans to knock down!

Jacob does some fishing!!!



Here are some of our ward getting groovy with a bit of a barn dance. Followed by a go at line dancing to old Cotton Eye Joe!


Brooklyn brought a firend from school with her!. They won the best dressed cowgirls - a block of chocolate! They got sick of their hats by the end of the night, they are hanging back around their necks!

I'm over in the far corner here, with my mum and Courtney holding little Maya! Enjoying a good Nutbush city limits!

Charlotte and I break out with a bit of a barn dance! She was a trooper!
Notice how Jason never managed to get his photo taken but let me tell you he was dressed to the nines with his flannel shirt, farmers hat and his rugged work boots! He was ready to round up the cattle himself!
