End of Year Musings

I have been very bad about updating the blog.  Since my last post, we have finished a very successful year in the ring and are eagerly looking forward to 2012.  We now have 2 new Champions and a Bronze level Grand Champion.  Cristal and Captain Jack have finished their Championships in fine style with Cristal already well on her way to her Grand Championship and Captain Jack earning a nice breed win during his finishing weekend.  Phantom earned his Bronze level Grand Champion and finished the year on a hot streak, winning Best of Breed in 5 out of 7 trips to the ring in his last three shows.  Now all the kids get to relax, enjoy some down time with the family, play in the snow, and, at least in the Pirates' case, experience their first Christmas, and their first birthday. 
Speaking of Christmas, the Pirates have already hoisted their colors over the Christmas presents that are in the house...


And have tried unwraping pretty much everything they can get their teeth into!  Did you know you can peel a cardboard box like an onion??  We didn't, but we do now!!! LOL

Everyone have a Happy Holiday and we wish you all a wonderful New Year!  We hope to see you all in or by the ring in 2012!!

Wags and Woofs!
