Yesterday i went to the Royal Winter Fair in Toronto. It was fun! We saw some of the cutest sheep ever! James said if a sheep would make me smile that he would buy me a lamb to keep on the farm. I think i might take him up on that offer. a lamb would be cute but then i think he wants to eat it when it grows up! That's so Evil! I don't want to eat my pet!

The fair was fun, but my entire family called me a redneck because i love that kind of stuff. Rodeo's , plowing matches, pickups and tractors. That's what i love to do. I think that's the reason that james and i get along so well. He rides bull, and he's a member of the CCA, for those of you who don't know what that is the CCA is the Canadian Cowboy Association. Riding bull would be so fun! i want to do it so much! James and Hutchi said that if i still want to do it next year they'll sign me into the circuit if i can qualify with good times. I can't wait! it's going to be so fun! can you imagine the adrenaline rush?! it'd be so sweet!

I thought it was so funny when we were in toronto. James and i walk in both wearing cowboy boots, and jeans with belt buckles. He was wearing a cowboy hat too, but there were so many people with high heels and probably never have seen a cow before. You could totally see a huge divider of those who were there for the shows and auctions, and those that were there to see the animals as if it were a zoo. We spent so much time telling people the difference in breeds of horses and cows. We were watching the horses in the one ring and a lady infront of us was so confused between english and western saddles. Another funny person asked how to tell the difference in dairy cattle vs beef cattle. We couldn't help but to laugh!

A friend from work always shows a calf at the Royals and she said that she's noticed as well, the division between city and country "folks". I think it's almost humourous the way the division is so apparent. I'm glad you had an awesome time (at least that's what it sounds like). You always need to have a distraction at times when things aren't so good.
