Well we are finally home! It was a very long ride home, but definitely worth the trip! I got to be part of the Centennial Celebration, if you haven't checked out yet, please do..great slideshow. I also got to see alot of old friends and made some new ones........Triburon, both your girls are just so beautiful! Anyway, here are the last 2 pics from the trip. My camera pics came out awful, indoor lightning and a cheap camera do not mix, I'm sorry.

Great pictures and both judges are very fair and know a good Doberman when they see them. How pleased you must be. People that were at the Centennial dinner that I know, had said it was just outstanding. They handed out tissues to everyone. Oh how I wished I had gone. It is an experience you will always remember.

thanks everyone for the nice comments on Austin, that win is something I will treasure forever. But even if we hadn't won, being here fo the Centennail Event alone was worth it. I had my little boy Hoss outside waiting for the veterans to arrive. Holding a flagpole and a 6 mos old puppy still for a good hour and a half was a feat in itself, but it was so worth it! When they came thru you couldn't help but get goosebumps.....and then your eyes welled up with tears of pride. It is rare in this day and age to have that kind of a moment....so glad I was there to be a part of it, cause it really made the trip.
