Great weekend with chins, friends, winnings and trolls!

[Sandi]

Had a great weekend with some gorgeous chins at the MCBA, WI show. I also won a few prizes at the show's raffle. Mt. Horeb was the town we stayed in not too far from where the show was held and it was perfect timing as they were having their Fall Festival this weekend. This little town is known for 2 things; (at least by me it is) Walter's General Store :thumbsup: and trolls, hehe. But best of all, I got to spend some time with some great gals (& the hubby's of some of them)!

1st, the pretty chinnies at the show....

the top 2 that won

some of my faves...

this bv was doing all sorts of tricks in his cage, lol, I loved him...

I swear if no one was looking, this one was about to get slipped in my purse...

my winnings,

a beautiful bouquet of chinnie rosettes with most of the different mutations donated by the Bonnier's...

and the bottle of Halloween Spice wine donated by Walter's General Store...

here is Brenda, Laurie, Carol and Lynn, who I met for the first time at the show!

the next day in Mt. Horeb, with the trolls! (thanks Lynn for taking great pics!)

I love that picture of you and the bouquet of rosettes!! Yes, we had a great time. I learned a lot at the chinnie show and really enjoyed a weekend away from home and spending time with friends.

One of the funniest moments for me......Several of us were standing in front of a restaurant and talking after eating dinner. All of a sudden Nicole Lemler says "Wait a minute, I think I'm actually taller than somebody!" and comes and stands next to me. Yep, she was, by just a smidgeon. It was very funny and she actually had someone take a photo of us so she could PROVE she's actually taller than somebody. Not only was she taller but she was definitely about 1,000 times cuter.

Thanks guys! I LOVE my rosettes bouquet!

I forgot to add the pic of Kristy (starleomach) that Carol took, only I had to crop it as Carol is an awful picture taker!

In my defense how can I take a decent picture with someone nagging me to hurry up and fidgeting?

OMG...HA...lol...It NEVER fails, somebody always likes to point out how short I am. In fact John reminded me several times earlier that day! SO...when it dawned on me that I was not looking UP at somebody I had to let everyone (mostly John) know!

Kristy your belly is awful cute I sure cant wait till the claim show to see it grow and feel that baby move!

It was really great to meet a bunch of new people!!!

 

[caiti]

I love seeing pictures of members!! Sounds like it was awesome!!
Those trolls are a little crazy looking.
Mmmmm...halloween spice wine. I love Halloween. And wine. Good combo.

Don't you love that, Nicole? I feel like saying "Thanks for pointing that out to me. I never REALIZED I was short until you mentioned it right now." Really, I don't mind the short jokes. They don't bother me at all. You are absolutely adorable!! And so are your chins!!

Is John here on CnH? If so, what's his user name? I love to tease him. He's a funny guy!!
