HAPPY BIRTHDAY RAIN!  March 9, 2006

Hi Ladies, Of course I had to take second birthday pictures of my boy. 
 Thought I would share.  I did not get him stacked real well since he was pretty interested in all the cat smells
by the bushes. LOL  He had more important things to think about rather than stacking.  His sit stays were good though. 
 Since all of you have Rain siblings send pictures when you get time.  Sometimes with all our busy schedules
 it is easier said than done but if you happened to get an urge to take some pictures.......:))))))) Thanks, Betsy.

Contest!
