Oh my GOODNESS!! What a WONDERFUL DAY!!

Even though we had to bring the party inside, I think it may have actually worked out better. We were in an exercise room at a gym, and there were mirrors lining one wall,

so the pups got a kick out of that, and we got a kick out of watching them!

All together the estimate was about 30 people and 20 Yorkies of all shapes, sizes, and colors! I am hoping other people got some great pictures of the individual dogs because I was way too busy running around today.

I got a lot of great people shots, but not a whole lot of pups. I am in the process of transferring them to photobucket, and as soon as I am done I will post the link.

Unfortunately, the surprise I had planned did not turn out on camera. I did not take the time to show my husband how to use the video portion of the camera, or make him practice. I thought I had it set up for him, and told him to just press the button to start. I must have messed up.

There was no video of ALL THE YT PEOPLE SINGING HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MEGAN AND TUCKER WITH LIT CANDLES AND SIGNS!!! Dang!!! I will post the signs later, so check back when you get a chance, they are very funny and cute!

BUT we did have a good time, did a costume contest, gave away the door prizes to a delighted crowd, (THANKS AGAIN RETAILERS!!) raised a little money raffling some of the prizes which was split between Yorkie Rescue and the Bark Park, heard a talk from Melinda Housha about Yorkie Rescue, and many kind folks donated to covering the cost of the indoor venue! Of course people chatted together, and dogs played excitedly in large and small groups. Also, much to my delight, there were two puppy transfers that occured! How cool is that?? LOLOL, and in the excitement and hub bub of people and dogs, I forgot to play the GAMES I had planned, LOL!! NEXT TIME!

Here's a picture of the group! I think we had a little less than 10 YT people there, but that's a LOT!! It's so funny, I feel like I know some of them, and it's cool to put the faces with the names. Robbie is going to list the folks when she posts her pictures, so check it out!

THANKS, everyone for coming!! (AND thanks for helping me clean up!! I am TIRED!) I had a wonderful time, and I cannot imagine it being a whole lot better than it was!!!
