FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS

C-O-L-O-N-E-L-S... GO.... COLONELS!

Rose loves a good pep rally! All the noises and people are fascinating to her.  She never flinches - the LOUDER the BETTER! A little bit of OFF to protect her from West Nile, and a little breeze and she is good for the entire ball game! - as long as she has on her cheerleader outfit! OF COURSE :)

 And all that excitement just wore out my little cheerleader!
