    As 2011 draws to a close, what was your favorite event/memory and why?

    So let's hear it! I know this year WENT BY like an blink of a eye. Way too fast. I do have a favorite memory though - my trip to California with Mike in May. It was a 2 week trip and I was able to explore all beaches in Southern California and visit L.A and Hollywood. It was quite a experience. Such a beautiful state, so I hope to visit the northern part someday! And my other favorite would be, getting a house with 3 acres w/ the boyfriend and we're moving on to the next step. Now, how about you?

    I'd say the best memory was our disney world trip this year

    That was the best trip we've ever had. It was so... magical lol. I will never forget it. we will have more trips to Disney world (like in 25 days lol) but this one will always stand out.




    R.I.P my dear Sweet Teddy. You will be missed forever. We love you.

    I would have to say being chased across a field by a Confederate officer (who happens to be a very good friend) at a Civil War re-enactment (I was portraying a Yankee Sharpshooter)...I landed on my butt and sat there and giggled like crazy...it was such a blast!

    When you come to Northern California, you better let me know!

    This year went by so darn fast I can't even think of my favorite thing. Maybe it's my new car...even though I just got that almost two weeks ago.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Absolutely! Where in Northern California do you live? I have a very good friend who's relocating to, I want to say, San Francisco or Sacramento, but crud. I can't remember? I will have to ask her. We attended Ohio State together - met her through a ASL class or two. She's such a great person. She's going out there for a speech/hearing job. Speech pathologist, I think.

    I live in the East Bay Area (Concord), which is about an hour from San Francisco and just over an hour to Sacramento. I actually grew up just 30 minutes from Sac and my family still lives out there.

    Without a doubt it would have to be my son's wedding. It was beautiful and perfect. I love my new daughter-in-law so much.

    I absolutely and totally LOVE winter! As I get older I love it more and more. Last year was a winter lover's dream come true with all the wonderful frigid temperatures and most of all, more snow than we've had here in quite some time. Hoping for a repeat this winter!

    Favorite Event - Graduating high school, finally!

    Favorite Memory - Senior Week - Prom, Senior trip, Senior Breakfast, Year book signing party and everything about Senior year!

    I can't complain. I graduated high school, worked with awesome people all summer, got through my first semester of college with a 3.77 GPA, and finally got a job involving DOGS!

    Oh gosh, I don't even know.

    Probably all the things I did with my new awesome friends in college. Like salsa dancing, laser tag, 3spoons yogurt, etc.

    Getting Brennan was also a really great event because I've wanted a Pit Bull my whole life ever since I knew a thing about them.

    Oh, and getting my license and my first car was pretty eventful

    I'd have to second this. The last few winters have been very snowy and I love it! Adopting Angel and Tessa were very happy events!

    Not to be depressing - but this year was really bad for me. The one great thing though was getting Clover. I couldn't have made it through the year without her.

    Clover, Loki, Shadow, Pixel and Kyo
