Trisha's Beach Wedding!




So the pictures from Trisha's wedding are actually from the end to start, instead of the correct way..so bare with me=) I am just going to put captions by the pictures. These are just a few of the 200 pictures I took that weekend!! IT was SOOO great to see Trisha and Billy and their family for the wedding! IT was such an honor to be her Matron of Honor, I can't believe my friend from birth is married now! She was a gorgeous bride and the wedding was BREATHTAKING! It was on Pensacola Beach in Florida at the Naval Air Base, at Officer's Club. Enjoy the pictures...

 
My mom and Jennifer at the Hadley's house at the 'Send of brunch', me and Jenn at the beach!
   
Right before they left I got a pic with Trish! I will miss her. I LOVE this pic of her and Billy right before they left in the limo!
MY parents came and MY brother and Jennifer=) It was fun hanging out with them!

 
Cutting Billy's super cool Groom's cake, no that is not a real hat-it is CAKE-its amazing. and then that's me rich holding all the money from the 'dollar dance'!!
  
Trisha's cake was beautiful, but NOT as beautiful as she was!! look at her!!

Bella's First Agility Trial

I posted video from the agility show....


Getting advice from an veteran jumper.
Bella's 3 2nd Place Ribbons!!
Me and Bella about to run!! Us finishing the 1st course!
Tired and hot!!

So, Bella had her first show last night! She did a great job!! I have pictures and video to show everyone so they can see how she did and how it all works=)


This is from Bella's 2nd run....she does run off after about the 2nd jump-but that was partially my fault b/c I stopped b/c I forgot where the next jump was, so she got distracted. But it was better than the first run she did! She was only 17 seconds over on the Qualifying time too.=)


(1st just want to say-the woman in the background saying something about 'evil red dog!!' really loudly was talking about her own dog that just went...not Bella. lol)
This was Bella's last run (the 3rd one) and she did MUCH better! She was goin fast and doing all the jumps right....then, they added a tunnel..and it threw her off. She wanted to smell all the other dogs that had been in there, and then she got distracted. I had to 'pull her back' and get her to focus again, then she did a 'back' jump (which means jumping through the jump the wrong way) and that really stunk...that means minus points...plus she was wasting time. But, she finished it strong and I was very happy!!!
Overall she did REALLY well for her first time! A lot of other novice dogs had to leave, or they ran out of the ring, etc. But Bella never did that, so it was very encouraging.
Lots of fun, lots of laughs, and lots of soreness, b/c that little red thing is FAST! =)
