Fair and Odyssey all in 1 week

This week was the fair where the kids showed and sold their 4-H plants.
Adam grew a succulent wreath and some pineapples.
He also won 1st place for cloverbud greenhouse knowledge.
Grace showed some succulent collections.  One was a group of moss purses and the other a frame that had the word love crafted with succulents.
Grace won the Class champion for her purses and third place for display.
 Merry showed 2 succulent collections, a turtle and a frame filled with succulents.  She also showed some flats of stonecrop.
 Merry got 1st place for all her plants and made the most money.
She also was selected as one of the four 5th graders at her school to show artwork at the fair.  
I forgot to take a picture of her plaster mask but picture a green pirate unicorn plaster mask with ruby red lips.
 Jacob grew a succulent wreath, a succulent ferris wheel collection and trays of echeveria.
He won class champion for his echeveria trays, 2nd place for display and 3rd place for greenhouse knowledge.
 Eliza had to sit through all of the sale and show.  Luckily there were plenty of rocks, dirt and sticks to play with at the plant show.
Jacob's odyssey of the mind team also competed this weekend.  Their robot sort of failed but they placed 1st for spontaneous and 2nd for style.  They did a Billy Mays Illuminati theme which scored lots of laughter from the judges.
