So, as you all know last week was the county stock show and I am happy to say all my hard work payed off! From Wednesday to Saturday I was running on a total of eight hours of sleep... but it was definitely all worth when I won Grand Champion with my steer, "Turbo", and probably the sweetest part of it all my brother won Reserve Grand Champion with my other steer, "Heater"! I always feel so blessed to have so many people who support me and cheer me on in my county! They all make it worth while and they made my last county show so great.. I will never forget it!
The lack of sleep and non-stop preparation really payed its toll on my body! Monday morning I was at the doctor getting shots and antibiotics due to contracting the Flu and Strep throat. Quite frankly between getting ready for the major stock shows and balancing school.. I do not have time to be sick! I have really been watching my diet and been focusing on eating healthy foods my body can benefit from so I can stay healthy and finish out my show career with a "Bang"!
My dad and I are leaving for Fort Worth on Monday and I am super pumped to say the least! I will be showing a pig in the market hog show, but my heart will be in the steer barn as I watch my younger siblings compete in Fort Worth Junior Market Steer Show! It is always such a great time to hang out with my stock show buddies, and watch the world's greatest steer show!
