{Labor Day}

I've been putting off blogging the last week or so just because I haven't been in the mood. I figured I'd get around to it eventually. Well, I have to stop procrastinating because soon we'll have a baby and then I won't have time to blog and if I do, it'll be about our cute little baby and not other things and those would never get blogged about, which is no bueno. So, here it goes.

For labor day the husband, his sister, and I went up to Soldier Hollow in Heber Valley for a sheep dog herding contest. Yes, you heard me correctly. Yes, it's just like on the movie Babe, but, with no pigs. I know it sounds weird and boring, but it was actually super fascinating!! The handler would have 25 minutes to have the dog lead the sheep through a certain path, bring them into a circle, and then separate 5 of them with a red collar and get those ones in the gated area.  It was actually pretty intense and interesting! Who woulda thought that I could get so worked up about a sheep herding contest lol.

Also, we had to sample some funnel cake :)

They had some other shows going on as well, but those were not as cool. One show said that they were going to have some acrobatic dogs.... I was not impressed. I think I was about 20 years older than their target audience, oops.

But, they did have a diving contest, which was kinda cool. The owners would throw a toy into the pool and see how far the dogs would jump - some of those were amazing! The owners would get the dogs all worked up and then they would run along that ramp and jump into the water. It was pretty entertaining to watch - especially some of those crazy owners trying to get their dogs excited. 

We had a really great time! It was such a fun/interesting way to spend our labor day!
