We are HOME!!!

Watching video results

Lowri - I had so much fun at the Nationals!  I got to watch my half-sister Nicki go Winners Bitch (TM says I can say that word - unless that is what I am calling her).  My daddy went Best Brindle Dog in the Megan, he won the herding titled class, he helped g-pa Hunter to second in the Stud dog class, and then he made the CUT in Best of Breed!  My Uncle Pie not only made the cut, he has MERIT!  Everyone was so excited about that!  My half-sister Ali also placed in her class, and Kearney and Treasure placed in their classes.  What a week for my family.

I got to sit on TM's lap for most of the show.  That way I could see what was going on.  I also got to pose for too many pictures to count!  I got to give people kisses.  Some people either stole me from TM or just wanted to borrow me so they could show me someone else.  I got lots of kisses in that way!  The Nationals are fun, fun, fun.  Too bad TM says we can't go to another one until next year.

Kearney - After all the fun was done, TM and MC loaded up all the crates and grooming stuff and started for home.  For a little while, I thought MP was going to keep Chase, but she sent him with us.  We all got in our crates and fell right to sleep as TM drove us all homeward.

It was a very long trip!  TM and MC kept stopping to let us out, but I have to say, I was quite tired of being locked up for 10 whole days!  We got to stop at a motel to sleep, but we didn't stay long enough to get good rest.  TM and MC finished the drive home and then unloaded and started doing laundry.  I thought Papa Ron would come over, but TM said she planned on going to sleep early.

Lowri and I finally got to get out and run around.  We chased each other for a long time just to burn off the extra energy.  Now I think we are ready to go to bed too.
