I'm just hog wild about San Antonio!!!

Good golly Miss Molly!! This past weekend Macy and I went to the San Antonio Livestock Show as volunteers during the first wave of the hog show and let's just say it was interesting to say the least. Now so we all have an understanding of what is about to happen, I'm a fan of hogs....I raised my fair share in high school. Macy on the other hand, not so much. They are definitely not her favorite species so for her to come along with me was a HUGE deal!!! lol 
When we first got there on Sunday, Macy was wearing flip flops and needless to say they all just laughed at her and made her go back to her car and change shoes. Once we were both in proper attire, we went back behind the show ring and began our work. Macy was in charge of opening and closing the gate for the hogs in the next class as well as keeping people from walking through....she was a hog bouncer basically and didn't really wanna get too too dirty lol....I on the other hand, being the loving friend that I am stepped up and took on the task of being in the holding pens with the hogs, getting them down the line. Let's just say that after a few days of doing that my knees have some pretty sweet looking bruises!! =) There's always a price for working hard right??? 

The hours were long, the food was great, and the experience was UNFORGETTABLE!!!! 

Stay classy Texas FFA! 

Mai Lee ;D 


Oh and I would like to thank Sidney Carter for providing me with the Texas Pledge on Monday morning!! Good looking out girl, after all, it has been a year since I've said it ;D
