2014 was a great year for our life and our blog and I am a little sad to be saying goodbye to it but I know 2015 will only bring on bigger and better things. I couldn’t bare to pick my favorite moment of 2014 but I do have a bunch of favorites or most memorable moments that I want to share with you.
1) Our Wedding in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico;
As Rolo cannot travel by plane he sadly wasn’t able to attend our wedding in March. In the photo below my brother-in-law made the most beautiful speech. I thought it might have been about how he’s excited to be apart of our wedding, family etc. but no he pulls out this beautiful speech about Rolo and how he knows how much I wished that he could have been there with me. My facial expression explains it all. I was a ball of tears.
(Below) is a photo of my bouquet and on my bouquet I had a few special things attached to it. 1) My late Grandmothers locket she gave me when I was a child(my something old). 2) A mini heart locket I borrowed from my cousin(my something borrowed) (the locket was given to my mom by her brother when she was his flower girl, my mom than passed it to his daughter (my cousin) when she was my moms flower girl) 3) A little Rolo charm put into the bag as I wanted Rolo to be there with me in spirit.
2) Rolo Included! Honeymoon to Sparkling Hills (Vernon,BC):
Oh this hotel was something out of a dream! I won this trip through McMurray Girl magazine so we used it as a late honeymoon in May. After seeing that the hotel only allowed dogs under 25lbs I had to do some convincing as I really wanted Rolo to come with us. With his temperament (he doesn’t bark and he’s very mellow) he was allowed to stay! I had such a great time there!

3) Becoming a Bark of Director for Milkbone Canada!
Rolo and I entered a contest where I had to submit his photo with a milkbone product and out of hundreds of submissions Rolo became 1/13 dogs on the board! He has been so spoiled in the past few months by milkbone its amazing!
4) Memorable Media Features;
Rolo has been featured in 3 magazine in 2014;
-Rescue Me Magazine as a Face of Rescue.
-Canadian Dogs Annual 2015 Dog of the Year (Runner Up)
-YMM Magazine – our first column we wrote for it
