Busy day for puppies

It was a busy day for the puppies today. Their first auto trip (and  long one, 2 hour round trip) and a lot of playtime with 2 sets of visitors.
First off to Bethesda an hour away, for the opthalmology checks we do on Aussie puppies prior to new homes. All puppies passed exams and the trip home was much quieter than the trip down!

Then home to visitors, future family members.

And yet they are still full of energy and ready to romp again. Tomorrow then can, before the rain/snow/whatever.
