    Talking Bet ya couldn't guess what the four year old won.

    Went to the middle school's Beach Bash party last Thursday, and all of us entered the free raffle.... After raffling off a lot of nice things, there were two items left and my four year old DD won.... Drum roll please......

    15 POUNDS of organic ground beef!!!!! I couldn't believe it...... LOLOLOL!!!! She couldn't figure out what was in the sack. DH says that she will get the biggest hamburger patty when we use that hamburger.....

    LOL! That is great!

    When my boys were in cub scouts they did the 'turkey shoot' one year. They don't really shoot turkeys, but they competed in archery and Kristopher won me a huge Butterball turkey! It was 22lbs! He was very proud of his turkey.

    What is funny is that back in February we bought a half a cow... Needless to say that 15 pounds just replenishes what we have already gone through... I am pretty excited though.
