Today was our church's annual Fall Fest! It raises funds for the Veterans Retirement Home. They use the money to help them have recreational opportunities. It is important to remember our veterans so we were happy to pawticipate this year!

| We did the timing for the race so we were just waiting for the walkers and runners to come. We were afraid it might rain. |

Was that FUN or what?!!! And you two where such BIG helpers. There were so many dogs there I could not believe it. And we raised tons of green paper for those wonderful veterans. I am glad you two were there to help make everything flow so smoothly. Did you like my chili? I made it with goose. It just seemed like the right thing to do.
Blessings,
Goose
Your chili was delicious! We liked the big chunks of meat - YUM!
Wow! Looks like a great event and a very worthy cause! I like your pretzel move!!
Howdy Murphy and Stanley, wowza you guys did a grreat job of helping. It sounds like a great cause and we're glad to many people supported it. Loved all the photos too. No worries, and love, Stella and Rory
P.S. We love your header photo but Stanley mate, if you're gonna drive don't forget to shut the door, hehehe.
Way to spend Saturday you two. I just had to stay and work at the kennel. My Vickie didn't even tell me about the events of the day. I bet Michelle and Goose would have taken me.
Dang it all. Missed you on the walk too.
But I did get to see pictures of Posy. You guys are gonna love her. She is smaller than you. She is gonna live at Big Murphys house.
Well, gotta go feed our guests so hopefully we will see you soon.
Bert and My Vickie
Wow what a cool event you helped with!

Bert, didn't you see the notice in the newspaper? We thought EVERYBODY knew about the Fall Fest. Did you hear the 21 gun salute? We are excited to meet Posy, especially since she is a Doodle!
You two did a great job helping raise money for a worthy cause.

What an awesome event and man-oh-man, you two must have been amazing helpers! Look at all those jobs you took over, phew! I love that there were so many pups, especially the ones decked out for Halloween!! ;-)
Eeeekkkk, Goose Chilli? Delicious!!!
Nice job at the fall fest. Hope you raised lots of money!!
Nice one guys. What a great event. We are glad you had such a good time. Have a super Sunday.
Best wishes Molly

What a wonderful way to honor the veterans. All the pups looked so cute; you guys did a great job at the various places-pumpkins, registration, walk and also just greeting others. Goose chili, really? Wish I lived closer, I think we'd be hanging out a lot. I have been working on Hunter "leave it" with tissues and some of my undergarments....bol. He seems to like to drag my dirty clothes around, silly pup.
Have a great couple of days!
Wags, Noreen & Hunter
So thoughtful of you guys to take over for one another! Autumn and Oliver like to do that, too. Especially when it comes to leaving overnight poop surprises in the house.
What a fun event and great pictures. Mom said she wish we could have joined you, I must admit, I'm not a runner. Oh mom has given me every opportunity but I would much rather sniff and mark me territory! BTW, your mom is older than my mom???

What did Goose's chili taste like Murphy? Was it spicey? Mom's a big chili fan on cold days :) Luv your furiend Stich's sweater :) Good job guarding the pumpkins. Remind me not to play twister with yaz. That pretzel move would so totally win the game every time! :)
Waggin at ya,
Roo
I just remember it had the biggest chunks of meat. It was very good. We could tell Goose really perfected it.
Oh yeah, she'll about 150 years old!
