A little about us

So I have a crazy busy hectic.....life. I'm always in the middle of some project or other, running hither and yon taking kids to this and that. This is a way to share those crazy projects and keep those who are interested up to date on our crazy lives.

I am the Mom to a family of 5 +uncountable pets. My husband works essentially two jobs from the months of March-October as he is an umpire for two leagues outside of his "day job." I work part time, and the rest of my time is spent juggling multiple calendars, sports, schools, activities, and pet needs.

Welcome to my world....

I'm an Iron Dog!

We went to the CanAm classic tournament in Indianapolis last weekend. It was fun, lots of racing, seeing people we know, all the good stuff. We really went because I needed 121 more points to hit my Flyball Dog Grand Champion title, which is 30,000 points! Not bad for an eleven year old dog but it's taken a while to achieve. My team told my Mom she should race me for the important heats. I don't want Mom to race me anymore so I went around the jumps twice! So Mom handed me off to my kid and I played fine for him. I played right for Dad, and Stephanie. But not Mom. Saturday night we had awards and learned that there is a new award out there called "Iron Dog." It is for NAFA dogs who have scored at least one point every year for ten consecutive years. I was the only dog in our club to get that award (but I'm also one of the oldest dogs in the club.) Mom & Dad let Marvin come out of retirement for one race so he can get that award too. Really? Can't I get one thing that he doesn't?? But I am an Iron Dog! Yay for me!

Here's my name on the list!

Here's what the plaque will look like when I get it.
