SanDestin was Grrrrrrrrreat!

We had such a blast at the dock diving event in Destin, FL, at the SanDestin Resort. The weather was perfect; the crowds were enthusiastic, and the dogs were great jumpers!


We saw our old friends, Nina and Parker, and Team Lightning from Ft. Myers. We also made some new friends like Abraham and Colby. Nina and Parker's owners, along with Andrew and Ian, brought their UGA Bulldog tailgating stuff. They set it all up right there by our crates. It looked so cool!



But, of course, the biggest and best part of the event was the dock diving!! Spud and I did pretty well. Spud set a new personal best of 21'1", which was fantastic. My little brother is really getting to be quite a jumper.


I did okay. My best jump was only 19'4", which is definitely not as good as I can do, but it was okay.


Both Spud and I qualified for the Senior Division Finals. Spud came in 3rd place and got a really cool plaque. I came in 5th place.

Like always, it was just a ton of fun. My mom took us by herself, because my dad had to work that weekend. So Spud and I had to be really good for her. She said we were. We got lots of treats for being so well-behaved. But the best part was that we got lots of hugs and belly rubs and hearing our mom say she was proud of us!

One more thing about this event. You remember how crazy my mom can be at times? Well, they had this zip line at the resort going across the pond. Yep, you guessed it. My mom, along with Andrew and Ian and our new friend Scott, went on that zip line....60 feet in the air.....across the pond!

Can you believe she did that!! Can you believe that is my mom?(Personally, I think she's at times a little goofy.)

But all-in-all, we had a wonderful weekend and can't wait until the next event!

Pack it up. We're off to Destin

Spud and I are going to Destin this weekend, to the SanDestin Resort, for a dock diving event. We are so excited! My mom began packing last night. I always know we are going on a dock diving trip when she gets out this big red box and starts putting stuff out on the table. And when that black and yellow equipment case comes out.....yippee!


Mom puts all the good stuff in the equipment case, because that's what goes to the event with us. (The red storage box stays in the motel room.) See what I mean? She puts bumpers and ducks and treats and all kinds of good stuff in that equipment case.

Sometimes Spud and I help her.

And then, once she gets everything packed, she loads the car. Boy, that is a job. She has to load crates, the ice chest, equipment box, storage box, her chair, water, her bag, and lots of other stuff.

Spud and I always supervise to make sure she doesn't forget anything. "Don't forget the chuck-it and tennis balls, Mom, so we can stop and play on the ride down there."

We think she did a pretty good job.

We will be back late Sunday night (or early Monday morning!). The only bad thing about this trip is that our dad can't go with us. He has to shoot some football or soccer or some type games up in North Georgia.

Wish us luck to jump big! Spud and I and our mom are very, very excited!!!

See ya on the dock,
