While she hates baths she realizes they are necessary in order to compete for Pirate's and Fozzie's attention with so many sheepie girls around  |
I'm almost ready. The goodie bags are filled. I do have to make the dog biscuit wreath and the pepperoni salad.
And take a bath!!!!! |
From what I've seen, Izzy already has Fozzie's attention!!!!
I have about a million things to do tomorrow!!! EEEK  |
Can't wait to see pictures! Have a great time everyone!  |
| Izzie will just get dirtier after Sunday. Then she'll need another bath. |
| I have major shpilkies today. DEB knows what that means...ants in my pants. I just wanna go home! |
Me, too. And I'm doing my financials so, I have to try and stay focused!

Oy! I'll see what we can come up with. |
| I will be there from probably 11-12 so I hope everyone is there early!! |
Paula and I will be there at 7am eating egg mcmuffins.
(right Auntie?) |
| I'm leaving my house around 8 so I'll be there 9-ish. Last year I was so excited that I couldn't eat breakfast at home so I ate a McDonald's Sausage McMuffin with Egg while driving. Steering wheel got a little greasy! |
| I am so jealous! |
Jump on a plane, come to O'Hare, you can stay at my house!!!!!
I company!!!!! Especially Sheepie people! |
Be careful if you invite me I just might show up.  Sheepie Fest. Just too tempting. |
| I'm jealous too. Take lots of pictures!!!! |
Oooooooooooooooooo...SheepieFest!....Egg Mcmuffins.......lovely forest perserve....beautiful doggies........the smell of hamburgers and hot dogs cooking on the grill...you are getting sleepy...you are calling a taxi to go to the airport...you are purchasing a ticket to Chicago....you are welcome!!!!!
(As long as you don't mind sleeping on a very comfy sofa!) |
| Elissa...come, too! Enjoy!!!!!!!!! We can lean on each other! |
I wish I could.  |
| SheepieFest!3 was FANTASTIC! We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day here in Illinois for this time of year. I have some pictures waiting to be approved as I'm sure others will as well. We had one family come all the way from Nebraska! |
| Wow - can't wait to hear all the details!!!!! |
| It looks like you had a lot of fun, and the weather was great. Wish we were there!! |
I wish everyone could have come to SheepieFest! 3. I think this was the best one evah. I would say there were 25 dogs (some didn't stay the whole time) and at least 3 sheepie-less people (me, one lady who lost her dog within the last year and a young woman who had a sheepie as a child and brought her boyfriend to convince him to get a sheepie!). There was a TON of food--pizza, hot dogs, burgers, Polish sausage, chicken sausages, pasta salad, tossed salads, Amanda's homemade salsa (YUM!), brownies, cookies, etc., etc., etc.
The silent auction made over $500 (Deborah has the exact figure) which will be donated to NEOESR. Several items produced bidding wars!
As Stacy said, Gary, Cindy and Cindy's mom Jane drove all the way from Nebraska with their sheepie Maggie. They never see sheepies in Nebraska so wanted to be with "their kind." They win the "we came the farthest" prize. And Cindy brought two items for the auction (one of which I won after a frantic bidding war).
Can't wait til next year! |
Wow! Sounds like a great time, and tons of sheepers!!!
Were all of the people are members from oes.org? |
Ron, it was a blast! There were several people from here. Its so good to meet like minded, sheepie people!
We also had some that came word of mouth, some who's email addresses I had from years past, some from the email list we don't speak of here, and one lady was there who is also a client of my groomer...and! my groomer, Carlos even showed up!
Ron..you guys will have to try and make it out here one day. I still owe you and Joan brats from the Brat Stop!
GO BEARS! |
