Lewis the Goat

Last week was our local fair here and this was Jaces first year in 4H. We had a wonderful time but basically lived at the fairgrounds and were exhausted by the end of the week. And we can't wait to do it again next year, lol.


Let me start by saying I could not stand Lewis when we first got him for Jaces 4H program. Lewis is a pygmy goat and Lewis is the most stubborn goat there ever was. But after lots of working with him Lewis turned out to be a pretty good goat and by the end of fair I actually really liked Lewis.

Jace did well when he showed Lewis and Lewis only drug Jace one time. A HUGE improvement for Lewis! Jace was only a cloverbud in 4H this year so there was no champion or grand champion but he did get a participation ribbon... which he was very happy about.

Ohhhh how fun! I wanted to come to the fair this year, but had to go out of town at the last minute and never made it. So sad, it was the best time last year.
I love Lewis the Goat.
What great lessons for the boys, and a fun family activity... even as exhausting as it was. Forever memories!
