Today is ...

3/3/2012

 
Well, it is finally here.  That very special day that I can't believe finally got here.  I loved reading all the guess and I do hope that the ones that said things like getting married or turning 30 were a joke ... I got a kick out of it anyway.  
    So who is right ... Wellllll ... Everyone!  Today has many things that are going on.  First I went to a bird show.  Not just any bird show.  It was this show that happens each year on the first weekend in March that I made my first entry as an APA member and showed against men who have been doing this alot longer then I have been alive.  And I made top 5 youth at that show.  This year all my birds placed 1st, 2nd or 3rd but I missed top 5 by one place.  Not bad for my first year showing against adults if you ask me.
       After I got home from that I had to go to Granny's 90th Birthday party.  All my Aunts and Uncles came from out of state to be there but it was a day for Granny and one she won't soon forget.  Her goal is to live to be 120 years old.  Check her out she was queen for the day.

Mom even had her doing the Queen wave for us.  It was great!  I got her light up knitting needles and some 85% wool 15% angora yarn (not mine yarn because it isn't back from the mill yet but some that Mom ordered) because she told me she has only used acrylic all her life.

    Oh and there is one more reason this day is a milestone.  On March 3rd 2011 I was named JMF young shepherd and won a flock of Angora Goats.  I, however, didn't get the news until the 4th of March because I was having an issue with my health.  

    See there everyone was right so everyone had their name in the hat.  (Okay, Mom found a random generator online but I still like the whole name in the hat bit) and the winner is ... Hold on bathroom Break .... Okay I am stalling

Reply Emily Kliolz 03/02/2012 9:44pm It is the anniversary of the day that Helen Keller met her miracle worker teacher (1887). I think that it is very sweet of you to celebrate this important event in her life. : )


So if Ms. Emily will email me her address at rj@barnontheweb.com I will get it in the mail to her ASAP! Congrats to her and I wish everyone could have won ... But Mom says we would go broke if I had to buy that much yarn
