Very small toot....a squeaker

So, last year we went to the county fair and saw that they had a division for SB and cards. This year, at the last minute, I picked up an entry guide and literally 20 minutes before the deadline entered 9 categories. You could enter multiple entires in each. Today I went to the Fairgrounds and discovered I won 9 firsts, 3 seconds, and 1 third. I beat myself 4 times! :greenwinkb: I got $101.00 in prize money. Promised to take the DH to dinner and to see the LAST HP movie this week before I head to NYC for workshops.

Thanks! I haven't entered the fair since I was little and my Grandma and I used to make jelly. We would enter against each other and even though it came from the same pot, one of us would always beat the other. We would always go out there and laugh over it. It was so nostalgic..... and I know she is laughing up a storm in heaven at the fact that I beat myself! :greenlol: :greenlol:
