MOOOOOOOOOO

So this Tuesday and Wednesday was the United Dairyman of Idaho's Convention. Shay's parents come down ever year to it and put our names down so we can go too. (We own over 5 milk cows so I consider us legit dairy-ers. haha...never having touching a teet myself.
There is always amazing meals (a steak being part of every meal) unlimited milk (everykind) and icecream snickers and twixes. Then there is the exibits that all hand out free stuff and have drawings. Then there are the door prizes too which are much fewer in number and much cooler prizes.
So Shay and I usually go to just the dinners. I took work off on Tuesday and went all day. Tuesday night they do the exibit drawings. Shay, his mom, his dad and I ALL won a prize. Which is amazing!!!Shay won a $50 cabelas card, I won a big box of fancy crackers and chocolates, Melody won a Leatherman, and Alan won a big Got Milk peice of luggage filled with all sorts of Got milk shirts, boxers, lunch pales, socks...and much more. Notice the little cows everywhere...
So we thought we did pretty awesome. Well at the final dinner (Wednesday night) Where the serve Filet Mignon with rasberry creme broulee with white choclate shavings for dinner...I won again. That night they probably gave away 10 prizes to over 200 people...I WON!! I won a 19" flat screen TV. The prize after mine was a 48" with surround sound. oh well...i am just so happy I won something.

I used to go to that with my parents but I think all I ever won was a hat and/or a bumper sticker. A tv is WAY cooler. :) I didn't care though because the food was delicious!
