Banbury Cross Walk

Written By: Hobee

This is one of my favorite days of the year.  Annie and Julie take Fergus and I to the Banbury Cross Walk!  The girls raise money by making this walk through the beautiful fall countryside.  Fergus and I run, off lease, through the woods.  We see tons of people, other dogs, and even horses!  I'm still not sure about horses.

2012 Twilight Beneift Gala and Civic Awards

Written By: Dan

Today was our annual Twilight Benefit River Cruise and Civic Awards Gala.  The weather held up for the most part (a little cold for the top deck of the boat, but overall nice).  We had great award winners, and a fantastic host (Spike from Mojo in the Morning).  Annie did a great job of getting donations for the silent auction and raffle.  In years past we have purchased items on consignment and made little to no money.  With Annie's help this year, we raised thousands.  She got great donations:  Golf packages, vacation packages, gift cards, jewelry, and more.

The cruise went off without a hitch.  Thanks to Aunt Donna, Lynn, and Annie's parents for coming.

Dan's Surprise Birthday Party

Written By: Hobee

Dan thought this Saturday was going to be another laying around the house. He never even changed out of his bathing suit.  Then people started showing up.  Before he knew it a whole slew of people showed up.  And not just people, but chicken and hurl, bumpy cake, BBQ, and snacks!

The started on the deck, and ended up at the fire by the lake.  A great surprise!
