Last Class and Show News: Gallery Added

I am working on videos last night and photos. They will get up sometime today. Some came out blurry. Think I was paying more to what was happening than my settings but I am putting up the blurry ones as you can see who did what in the blur, I suppose. Sorry about that. I do not usually take videos with my DSLR.

It is bitter cold. Nathan forgot his suit jacket in the garage at 5am. Our pipes seem to be frozen so we are wasting electric heat - well not a waste in hope that this stops us from having burst pipes.

Ella won baby puppy in breed and group this morning. She will be competing for Best Baby Puppy in Show. It means Nathan will be there the entire day as its the last competition. It will be a long day for Inula and Ella and the same for the next 2 days. But we are excited for her wins.

More later with links to the videos and the gallery. It takes a LONG time to get all the videos up.

So here are the videos:

Two Peas in a Pod

Hi Darlah/Nathan,

This photo was taken about a week ago. We tried to see if we could get Holly's hair out of her eyes and Jessica decided to share her hair clip.   We always have a good laugh when we try to put up her hair because she never stays still long enough for us to do a decent job!  Looking forward to being able to put her hair up properly when it gets longer!  :-)

Odin and Katie's Birthday!

Hi Nathan & Darlah,

Thanks for taking care of Odin, he is back to normal now, he was totally out that night and need another day to recover, he must be having so much fun at your place. Time flies...Today is his 1st birthday, we hosted a party for him over the weekend, attaching 2 pictures here. Happy Birthday to sis. Katie too...from Odin.

Happy Birthday to you too Katie. I thought I would put up a couple of you as you were becoming a young lady. Look what she is doing. That attitude would have bode us well in the ring.

Odin is a pistol too. Roxie you make nice puppies!

Off to Class

It's always a crazy short day on Thursday as we have class so its a no photo day. I will make up for it with photos from class. Tiny is here playing his heart out. I just finished brushing him and am about to do Ella. Then have to make sure we have everything for class. 

Then after class I get to wash dogs for the show. So a good reason not to do photos.
