Pretty great State Convention with some great friends!
I was honored (and shocked) to win BOB with my intermediate blue buck who was almost a cull. I thought he was ugly as heck but I guess heās growing on me!
We had several BOV/BOSV wins in youth satins from our favorite satin judge, Mike. Leahās Prince was BOS and Donovanās otter doe Alibi was best colored fur.
Donovan scored a BOB with Sushi, a nice end to her Thrianta show career as she heads into her brood doe career next.
The Californian classes were some of the biggest weāve seen in some time. Donovan earned a 1st place senior doe and 1st place junior doe who went onto win BOS.
Leah and Donovan were both runner-up in their royalty competitions. Donovan was given a blue holicer to use as a showmanship rabbit and Leah did super for her first time with showmanship.
For year end sweepstakes, I was 2nd open satin. Donovan was 2nd in Cals, thriantas, and satins. Leah got her first 1st in satin sweeps for Wi. A good year for us all!
Now for a relaxing evening in the camper, some sleeping in, and day 2 tomorrow!
