Labradoodle & Goldendoodle Forum
Tonight is New Year's Eve, and I certainly have never been a big fan of this holiday. As a school kid, college student, and now as a teacher, I have always come to associate the beginning and end of the year with the school term, so the holiday has never really impacted me that much. If it is not full of glitz and glam, then it seems like something of a disappointment. For all of you out there who feel the same way, do not worry because someone else (me!) shares your sentiments.
On carefully reviewing my New Year's resolutions from last year, some did not come to fruition. I started out strong reading three books per month, but that eventually tapered off with the rigors of student papers. Although I remain diligent writing cards for all the big holidays (Christmas, Easter) and the small as well (Halloween, Valentine's Day), I did fall off in writing one "just because" card a month. The yoga headstand, my prized resolution, simply never took off despite some really good intentions. My main achievement was scoring a new job that I love. Funny enough, the dog, subsequent blog, and the house were nowhere to be found on last year's list. So, sometimes life just happens.
2012 was the Year of the Milt for Jeff and me, so here are some of our fondest Milton memories. Enjoy, and Happy New Year!

Comment by Bonnie and Kona on December 31, 2012 at 8:07am Thanks so much for documenting darling Milton's first year. I love the photo on the pontoon boat. Such bravery! He is just too adorable. My DH had the best resolution several years ago. "Drink more champagne!" It translates into celebrate everything. I loved it, and we continue to work toward that goal... expressing joy in life.
