2008 - Held in Sandwich, Mass

There was much to do on Friday, prior to the tourney kick-off - here the pups get a chance to do what we all wish we were doing, lazing about on a very hot July day enjoying the coolness of the garage floor.

Here - Aunt B and Aunt Donna are trying to find the most excellent hiding spot that Uncle Mike and Uncle Donny have found

Kylie and Aunt Donna do some prep work the night before the big event

Ian drew up a wonderful coat of arms for the Tourney - and it couldn't be said any better

Even before the games began, the trash talk started early

Uncle Robert holds court...........with a plate full of pizza

NOW BATTING FOR COOKIE........OAKLEY.......OAKLEY CORDANO

There was an early pre-tourney celebration for Amelia's B-day - HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMELIA

Topher and Tristan enjoy the grab bags that Nana Joanne supplied - i don't know what was in them but it looks mighty tasty

And guess who else got to attend???

Amelia's Horse Swing (Blossom) was a huge hit with all the kids in attendance

Plus the bounce house as well as the water slide - here we see Topher showing the proper technique

Ian and Connor share their book of wizardry with Nana Joanne

Topher shares his amazing water bottle trick - most impressive - you have to see it to believe it!

LET THE GAMES BEGIN....
