Happy Grandmas
























Today is the Mothers Day. A grandma is the mom to the mom; we are featuring five very happy grandmas in the show circuit.

At the top picture, Rita is seem with her daughter and grandson in the April show. Rita has been grandma many times, this is her newest grandkid. Rita does wonderful show secretary work in many shows and she wins Best In Show on a regular basis. Her most recent big win is the Best Of Breed of the Satin National.

In the second picture, Rosemary shows off Brittany. Rosemary and Paul and their son John were very active in the 80s in the Salinas Valley RBA. After John went off to college and Salinas Valley RBA folded, we did not see them in the 90s. In 2001, John was full grown and returned to show circuit, he is now a top Satin breeder winning Best In Show and Reserve In Show regularly. Now his daughter Brittany is the similar age as John was in the 80s.

In the third photo, top English Lop breeder Trina puts her twin grandson's photo on her show apron. She said, "Everyone wants to see my grandsons' pictures; I figure this is the best way to show them." Yes, it's a great idea. The twins are so cute and the grandma is very cute too.

In the fourth picture, judge Cathy is showing off the pictures of her granddaughter with Cathy's famous Rex. Little princess is a bona fide rabbit lover; and she has a special talent of using chopsticks to eat Chinese food.

In the fifth picture, Stephanie is with daughter and granddaughter relaxing outside the show barn. Stephanie had Satin Angora some ten years ago but had to give them up when she and husband moved to a condo next to a country club/golf course. Now they have moved into a house and she's back to raising Satin Angora. We welcome her into our Camp Angora.
