Wow! I can definitely tell our puppies are related... I'm thinking it's Mia that looks exactly like GiGi. They are such beautiful dogs, right??! And my girl is so smart and well behaved. I got her on October 5th when she was 10 weeks old. And yes, I did get her shipped to me since Iowa would be quite the drive from NH lol. She was born on August 27th to Muffin and Ted E Bear. Your puppies look to be about the same age so I'm sure you have her siblings. So cool!!

They do grow so fast - in fact, most people don't realize that she's only a little over four months old. I remember when I got her she was smaller than my cousin's pomeranian puppy! But she's at kind of a perfect age right now - potty trained/crate trained but with all that sweet puppy energy. I'm really happy with her and have been recommending Cupid's Kiss to everyone I know.

You are my new best friend!

Thank you for starting the Freeport discussion group.  I thought it was all decided and then that woman had to post that silly survey and mess everything up.  Until you posted this I thought I would just not be involved with the Illinois Corgi group anymore.

THANK YOU!  Lisa

I just noticed your friend invitation.  I am new to this whole MyCorgi thing.  I just joined at the end of July after attending the Wisconsin Corgi Picnic.  They encouraged me to sign up.  I still get confussed on all this blogging stuff.

I am so glad that you started that new discussion.  I understand you saying that you did not want to take over since you are not a resident of Illinois.  I was afraid to get to pushy because I am new to the group.  I got it that if the picnic was closer to Chicago it would be easier for the bulk of the people.  I researched several parks online since I live far from there as well.  I kept coming back to Freeport since it had everthing we wanted.

However, I was getting very angry about that new girl just starting up the survey after it was all decided.  She said Freeport was too far for her to come.  I will not miss meeting her!  By the way, she listed a new discussion for the Naperville Park and used MY idea of bringing things to donate to their shelter.  Oh, well...  It will help the animals there too.

Thanks so much for the flowers!

Can we exchange E-mails?  Then I could send you what I have so far for the write up.  It is getting rather long.  I wonder if I need to edit it.  This is all new to me.  I am not an organizer, but I want to meet the other Corgi Fanatics too.  I was so frustrated with the whole thing until you started this new discussion and now I am motivated.

I don't know if they allow EZ-Ups, so I wrote the park again.  Should I wait for their response or post the event and add those kind of details later?

Looking through your photos, they are adorable, love them all!!!

I just sent you a friend request :)

I see you started a new group for Iowa.  Hoping to get a picnic for next year?

If you have it near Coralville we might come and visit with our breeder the next day.

BUT you still have to come to th Illinois Corgi Picnic too.

Hello!!  Definitely come to the meet-up!  It sounds like we'll have a great time.  I can't wait to see all the corgis...:-)
