Last weekend was good!

We left home on Friday and it was pouring rain, but by the time we had driven to Puyallup Fairgrounds the rain had eased and there was a hint of blue in the sky. We checked into the really bad motel close to the show site (its the last time we will stay here) then went over to the grounds to exercise and feed the dogs. We had 3 dogs were were showing - Thomas, his son Erik (at his first shows) and Susan (Thomas' sister)
On Friday night, our friends from Canada - Jenn and Jan joined us for Dinner at Olive Garden and we had a great time catching up on all the news.
Saturday we were spoilt with afternoon judging, which was really nice. Jenn showed Erik for me and he performed well and won his class.
Erik moving
Susan was WB, but as she needed a major (and the major was in boys) today was not her day to finish. That night we went to a local Italian restaurant and we had a party of 8 - Janet and Jo joined us (they are photographers supreme and took wonderful pictures of the show and the dogs)

Sunday we had early judging and this was Susan's day - she is now a Champion -Yeah...she can return to Denmark in glory, later this year.
We had a Monday show - Thomas won the breed and Erik was Reserve Winners dog. So overall a great weekend with superb company.
We have a few shows in Portland this weekend, just Thomas is entered. Then we are off to Florida - Disney, here we come....
