Regarding Cindy's post below, I don't understand it.? What exactly are you saying? Are you asking about the flowers I got?? I got the most gorgeous lavender roses from the GVX and the most wonderful flowers and beautiful planter?from the GV.? I also got many emails and thank you cards from the 24 selects.??All of them?are truly beautiful dogs and I'm so glad to have been a part of their show careers.? I think it's funny....the most beautiful flower I ever got were from a girl and my best date was my sister, who took me to Vegas for my 60th birthday.? She didn't spare the bucks....we females ROCK! Helen P.S. just got home so did not see emails until now Date: Fri, 1 May 2009 08:27:50 -0700 (PDT) From: cinosamgsd@xxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Question for Evan I'm just guessing, but maybe it was the same people that, after the 2006?National,?sent you?flowers enough to fill rooms, email upon email full of praise and kept your phone ringing off the hook telling you what a wonderful job you did.??? ?
