Momoo & the Dog Show

Does it get any better than that combo? Let me answer for you. No. No it does not. If your name is Reese or Claire Bjorkman anyway. (Except maybe "Momoo & a Bear Show" for Claire?)
My mom came for a visit a few weeks ago, and on one of the days, she and I took the girls to the dog show. Tom saw a billboard for it and knew it would be a hit. It was. Momoo AND a plethora of dogs all in one place??? These little girls thought they had died and gone to heaven!

This (below) is an 8 month old PUPPY!!!
It took a good 15-20 minutes before the girls stopped shouting, "Look! There's another dog.....Look! There's another dog!...." Yes. There were hundreds of dogs! And they really never got old.

Here they are with their new friend, Wickey, getting ready to cheer her on for the agility course.

The agility course was really fun to watch even for me.

We did a few other fun things with Momoo, but this was for sure the highlight.

And I can't leave out this picture because it makes me laugh. Me: "Claaaaire! Come heeeere! We need to put your medicine on. (for her neck)" Claire: "Noooo! I need my oils!!" Yep, Momoo had gotten to her and now she refuses to use anything on her neck other than her magical oils concoction.

My mom's coming again tomorrow, although there is no dog show this time. But Aunt Julie's coming along, and that's almost as good! ;)

I never thought Reese and Claire looked alike, but they totally do in that top picture! I'm glad you guys had a fun time with your mom. It's fun to see pictures of her on here.

That is too cute. I am glad they had such a fun time.

What are "magical oils?" So during this post I was having Curious George images flash through my brain. You girls didn't take the dogs home to sort them did they?

Did your girls get another haircut? It is so cute. I need you to give me lessons on fixing short hair.

What a fun, fun idea! And might I add that your girls hair always looks way too cute!!! And I totally agree with your comment on my blog about everything the 3rd does being just as exciting as the 1st...I worried that it wouldn't be that way.

What a great activity. It looks like so much fun. And I can't imagine owning a Mastiff. Or Boar Hound, or Hound of the Baskervilles, or whatever breed is that huge "puppy."

I love when moms visit! It's so fun. Your girls sound like they had a blast with your mom (which - btw - I love that they call her Momoo, I've never heard it before but it sounds awesome). My mom used to train dogs a few years back and ran one of hers in agility competitions (and won awards) so I know how unexpectedly fun those can be. I used to take Clayton when he was about Claire's age and he loved it! Something about grandmas and dogs and you can't lose!

How fun! Do you guys think that you will ever get a dog?...
