Chickens, Eggs, and Wicked

Those are the three words to sum up our weekend. We went Friday night to see WICKED, the musical. If you aren't sure the play is about how the witches in the Wizard of Oz came to be. It was fabulous! I will never watch the Wizard of Oz the same again.

The Saturday we went to the Chicken and Egg Festival. Really. Brent wanted to enter in the hard-boiled egg eating contest, but his tummy prevented him from doing so. There were lots of interesting things to see. If we had kids it might have been a little more fun, it's very kid-friendly, but we don't and we did have some fun. They had face-painting, horse rides, a jumping machine, guitar hero (really how is that related to chickens and eggs??), they had a chicken clucking contest - that was hilarious! They had an egg tossing contest, tractors to look at, all kinds of arts and crafts, including make your own pottery. Lamas - Tina wasn't there though - They even had a wonder goat - but I'm not real sure what he did. There were a few blacksmiths there and of course chickens. Oh and they had food - we did not eat any, but they did have chick and egg on stick! Below are a few of the sights we saw:
