I had wanted to enter them into the South Plains Fair here in Texas, but thought they weren't good enough, but I was so proud of both of them that I wanted to show them off. So, I did take them and entered them in the competition. And much to my surprise they both won blue ribbons. I nearly fainted when I found out.
