Foster puppy Ribbon (now Leeloo) was adopted.
We were supposed to have a blizzard We didn't really, just regular Missouri snow and we attended a CE conference at a lake resort. Which is not that much fun in January. And was only marginally educational.

Zodiac turned 10!
Legend began her quest to qualify for AKC nationals (I won't count the less than 10 points she got in December).

Sound like a great year(mostly) and another one on the way!
Isn't it fun to look back and realize how freakin' much happened in the last 12 months?
2012 sounds great for you and your fur kids!
