Here are a couple of the pictures that we took at the doggie obstacle course last weekend.

This particular obstacle was a hoop that the dogs had to jump through.  Between each group/size of dogs, there were people who went out and adjusted the heights of the jumping obstacles.

In addition to scrambled eggs and waffles at brunch this morning, we had some breakfast sausage patties. When we are having a nicer brunch, we usually have either bacon or breakfast sausages, so these patties were something different. At one point, Mikaela was talking about the patties, and surmised that they tasted like they had been pre-seasoned. Brock, sitting beside her, chimed in with “Mine tastes like syrup”.

A subset of the Huber family spent a big chunk of the day today at a dog show (technically Alberta Kennel Club’s “Summer Classic”). Mikaela (who would dearly love to have a dog) had been doing some major lobbying to have some of us attend it. So, Ben & Lori, Mikaela, Heidi, Davison, and Brock loaded up and headed out for a big chunk of the day. The Summer Classic was held at Spruce Meadows, a beautiful horse show jumping facility at the south end of Calgary.

So, the above picture is Davison and Brock, posing in front of one of the show rings (there was about 20 of them).

The following picture of Mikaela holding my camera gives a clue as to what she spent a big part of her day doing. I’m hoping that she will post some of her dog photos here on Hubcrate.
