Tulsa Stock Show



This is our last Tulsa State Fair. (can you hear me say Halelujah?!) It's 183 miles from my house to the show.
Thirteen (13) classes of pigs with about 40-50 per class. LOTS of pork chops!

Troy was in class 5 (about noon-time) and won 4th in his class. AND...won a showmanship ribbon.

We still have another spring show season to go thru, but our finale will be in OKCity which will be a tad-bit closer to home!




And Traci was suppose to show up...and I never got to see her!






All smiles after the show. First time we have been to Tulsa and neither one of us is sick! The hayfever usually hits bit-time this time of year.

Mama thinks he needs a bigger Showmanship award than just the ribbon!

Ah, he's so cute. Congratulations on the ribbons . . although I agree he should've gotten more!

Well done to him...and especially to you on the great quilt finish, you are right, worth double, but certainly $35o is worth the effort, Tracey

Congrats on the Fair.
I agree - Showmanship should always be a bigger deal! :)
Congrats to you and Janice on the quilt too. It's still a pretty good amount for FFA.
