| Some Candids taken by good friend Heidi Erland of Favors "national" adventures in the ring. THANKS so much Heidi for providing me the "best" memories in print! (some fond moments and some good chuckles :) |
| Favor was shown at 2 preshows and nationals The above picture was taken at the Sunday preshow - where Favor made the first cut, although she was crabbing on her down n' backs - she was also having much too fun as you can see:) |
| The next preshow was on Monday...now in my defense for wiping out in the ring, take a good look at those mats behind/beside me & the judge Monica Canestrini ! sure...I was the only one that ACTUALLY fell in the ring, but there were many close calls! LOLS |
| So now in the above picture, you are seeing my attempt at junior handling:) no - seriously... it was suggested that I try doing a down 'n back on the wrong side of Favor, to see if that would stop the crabbing. Now just LOOK at how much fun she is having now! HA! (Favor's thinking "geez mom, what are you doing on that side of me?") This pic makes me laugh, as it looked rediculous her & I, but what the hey...it did help... kinda! |
| can't do junior handling 101...so back to our normal side on the down 'n backs! doing good Fave! |
| On her way to her first Premier 10 win!! |

| Day of Nationals - Best of Breed Judging |
| Patiently waiting while armband numbers are being checked off (ya, I know...since when have I ever been patient:) |
| Making the first cut. Favor was showing her little heart out:) |
| Included this picture ONLY for Heidi's benefit (she was so smug at capturing the "almost" fall again!:) bitch judging was a marathon...started at 2pm and BOB was awarded aprox 7pm that evening!! talk about a test of stamina for us gals out there!! This I believe was the 3rd cut. |
| 4th or ?? cut?? |
| The last go around Favor still going strong and giving me 110% ! |
