It was a busy year for us filled with a good balance of work and play.Lots of time spent in the office for us both, but we certainly got our fill of busy weekends, lazy weekends, and time spent with family and friends.
The theme for this year seemed to be the year of the dogs. We had over 50 show, field and hunt test events that the boys competed in. We also covered thousands of miles traveling between Eagle Creek, Oregon and our house in Snohomish for training and of course all over Washington and Oregon for events and to drop doggies off at their respective handlers. We were also blessed to meet and make many new friends through our dog activities who share our interests.
Some highlights of the year for us included:
- Ben and I celebrating 12 years together and 9 wonderful years of marriage
- Ben buying his "big boy toy"-- a New Holland Tractor
- Hosting a couple of parties at our house including the first annual Ugly Holiday Sweater party
- Loki turning one and Odin turning three
- Loki getting his Junior Hunter title and 2 points towards his field championship
- Odin getting 9 points towards his show championship including one major win (only need one more major to finish, were soooo close...)
We can't wait to see what 2012 has in store for us. A few things we're already eagerly anticipating are Loki being a part of the Western Futurity event in both field and show in April in Madras, Oregon, finishing up Odin's show championship and working on his Master Hunter title, celebrating our 10th anniversary with a trip somewhere, and a wine tasting weekend with my best friend this summer.
Happy New Year!
