2014 started with snow
Lots and lots of snow
It also marked Eko turning the big 3
We took some fun trips – the Beggin’ Pet Parade was a blast
I got the girl!
We moved apartments, comfortably of course
I got another girl too!
Penny fit right in with the gang
And her charm was too much to resist
These two became inseparable
Penny grew in leaps and bounds
And in length too, of course
She’s nearly Eko’s match!
We had lots of firsts, like Penny’s first dog-ice-cream-cone
And her first boat ride
We were lucky to spend the year with plenty of friends from every species
We found time for some mischiefÂ
And there were shenanigans. There’s always shenanigans.Â
We loved a good pup, we lost a good pup, and we live with a reminder to always choose the moments that blow back your hair
We rounded out the year with some wonderful holiday time with our families
What will next year bring? It’s hard to see
But whatever 2015 may bring, we’ll face it together with all the love and joy we can muster
Thanks to everyone who has come along for the adventure. We share our journey with you, you share you stories with us and we all share a common love for the pets that enrich our lives beyond words. It’s these connections and this shared experience which makes the journey and the blog such a joy.
Cheers to 2014! Time to take a breath and get ready to dive head first into 2015!
Oh what a HAPPY post today…….thanks to you Will for a year of wonderful photos and videos….watching as you added to your circle of love in many ways…..your love of life and ability to capture those moments in not just YOUR own life but that of the pups is amazing. Thanks for a wonderful year – and here’s to even more fun AND love in the new year!

A lot of learning, a lot of romping , a lot of loving the best year ever for Pawbabies and their pawlessparents
Great review of 2014! We never really know what the new year will bring, but we are hoping for lots of fun and excitement!
I wish you a wonderful 2015 ( and I hope it will be a good year for your bro too). You can read the future that way Penny? Wait I come close to the screen, maybe you can read mine too?
lovely pictures and lovely sentiment – may your 2015 be as wacky and wonderful, for you and all of your family, as 2014 was!!
You’ve had a pretty big year, here’s to 2015 being just as great!
Good riddance to 2014.
A wonderful review, Will. May 2015 bring you, Emily and the pups good health and loads of fun!
Great annual recap- you had lots of adventures this year! Wishing you all a Happy New Year! Woofs & Wags from Bear and Scooter of SheSpeaksBark
Seeing your pups brings tears to my eyes – I don’t know why. I just love seeing well loved dogs, following their adventures. Can’t believe how quickly Penny grew – she is a delight. Wish I could hug them both for real. Have a fabulous New Year – thanks for sharing your babies and enriching all of our lives in doing so.
Thanks for sharing this–made me smile!
Awesome trip down memory lane my friend – love these pictures! XOXO – Bacon
Happy New Year to you and your pack. I just want to thank you for sharing your crazy pups with all of us.
Wishing all health, happiness, and loads of cuddles in 2015.
Karen, Bob & the crazy RR’s Bruno & Ty! Peace all
Great pictures. I love the one with Emily and all the pups around her. Poor Emily, she looks like she is being squeezed by them:-) That the new year brings all of you, health, love, peace, prosperity, and plenty of new furry and human friends:-)
I’m delighted to have found your blog this year – one of the very best! That puppy picture of Penny is too much, as is the one with her head in Eko’s mouth. See you in 2015!
Great memories. Thanks for sharing with us all year. Looking forward to your 2015 shenanigans!
Happy New Year from Jan and Rusty

we have more reasons to celebrate this time of year because both our RR are xmas children… they both came to us few days before Christmas…
Remembering 2014, among other things, we are happy that we found your blog, we loved to see how Penny grows (they grow so fast, so it was nice to remember) We loved to meet her trough your blog, she is so funny… And mr. Eko is such a fine gentleman 🙂
Happy New Year from all of us 🙂
Hope you had a lovely christmas and wishing you all the best for 2015!
That last photo is just too cute. Wishing you all a wonderful New Year!
