Fall Beauty in the Country

Fall is here! God has given us a bounty of beautiful colors. The first pictures are what I see from my front and back porch. I found these beside my pool.

Fall Fun at Ivy Bluff

We had a great fall festival last weekend at my church. The kiddos had a costume contest and a pumpkin decorating contest. Of course, they were all winners! We had a chilli supper with all of the "fixin's", dessert, and drink. We also had a craft auction.

Coffee County Fair

Who doesn't love the excitement of a local county fair? The rides, food, shows, animals....I have such great memories of the fair when I was a child. Last week, Coffee County, TN had their annual county fair. It rained most of the week but the excitement was still there. My family showed in the Polled Hereford cattle show on Saturday.

D. J. won a trophy for showing. Way to go!!!!

Of course, everyone has to visit the animals while at the fair. D. J. just loved watching them.

We all decided this poor fellow had a bad hair day!Thanksgiving is just around the corner, hope this guy survives.

What a fun day and such memories. Do you have any memories of the county fairs?
