The 1st Day of 2010

The pics are from this morning.

We wish ALL our friends a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year!!!!

Due to no longer having as much time and due to having lost some of the inspiration - Alih, James and I have decided to take a break from the blog for a while. However, we promise to still visit YOUR blogs as often as we can.

James will continue with Weight Pull training, obedience, search and all the other activities. This year we will also return to the Show Ring. Our first show will be in February, so please cross your fingers for us. We'll keep you updated on how that works out.

I am hoping to keep my other blog alive... we'll see how that works though but if you're feeling like it, please stop by and say hi.

Pga av tiden inte alltid räcker till numera, och pga att inspirationen tyvärr har försvunnit - har Alih, James och jag bestämt att ta ett avbrott från vår blogg under en tid. Vi lovar dock att besöka ERA bloggar så ofta vi kan.

Våra planer för närvarande är att fortsätta med Weight Pull, lydnadsträning, sök och alla andra aktiviter vi redan sysslar med. Dessutom kommer vi återvända till utställnings ringen detta år. Vår första utställning kommer äga rum i februari, så håll tummarna för oss. ;) Vi håller er uppdaterade på hur detta går.

Ska försöka uppdatera den andra bloggen jag har, men no promises. ;)

A Star Is Born

.. or maybe I should say, 2 stars are born!

The winner of Swedish Idol 2009 is amazing, and so is the runner up! They are both amazing.

Here's the winner, Erik Grönwall, singing the winning song - HIGHER!




And the runner up, Calle Kristiansson, also getting a chance to sing the winning song.


It's almost impossible to pick a winner 'cause they are both awesome!

SICK

I'm really sick (and have been for over a week), that’s why there’s no activity on the blog.

James Is Proud

Above are some pics of James' beloved brother, Atlas. Atlas passed a wild game tracking test today which means James is a very proud brother. On the 3rd pic one can also see James' & Atlas' mom.

Bilderna är på James käre bror, Atlas, som idag klarade anlagsprovet för viltspår. James är mycket stolt över att ha en så duktig brosa!!! På den tredje bilden ser ni även James och Atlas mamma.   

My New Blog

Yes, I have decided to start my very own blog considering this one belongs to the doggies, well mainly James. Let's see for how long I find this amusing... :)

Jag har bestämt mig för att ha en alldeles egen blogg eftersom den här tillhör dogsen, ja främst James. Ska bli spännande att se hur länge jag tycker detta är underhållande. :)

A Decision Has Been Made

Considering this blog is mainly about James in the first place, I have decided to turn the blog in to a "James blog" only. You'll start seeing some changes on the blog in the near future.

Tomorrow, A Special Day

Tomorrow is the Blue Baby's 2nd b-day. Wow- the baby has become so big. I wonder what gifts he'll be receiving on his special day. ;)

The Daily Wag

Who doesn't know who Martha Stewart is, right? Well, now it's time for the world to get to know her dogs as well. Her 2 French Bulldogs (Francesca & Sharkey) have their very own blog called The Daily Wag. :) To be honest, I did not know she had dogs. But then again, I'm not the biggest Martha Stewart-fan, convict that she is and all. ;) However, knowing she likes dogs, I all of a sudden like her a lot better. ;)

Jag tror väl att även de flesta svenskar vet vem Martha Stewart är eller? Nu får dock "superkvinnan" lite konkurrens från sina hundar som skaffat sig en alldeles egen blogg. *fniss* Jag hade faktiskt ingen aning om att Martha ägde hundar men det gör hon tydligen, och genast tycker jag lite bättre om henne måste jag erkänna (ja för egentligen är jag inget fan av kåkfarare Martha). Hennes hundar heter Francesca och Sharkey och är av rasen French Bulldog. Deras blogg heter The Daily Wag. :)

Breaking News from Sweden

Source: www.aftonbladet.se

Victoria, the Crown Princess of Sweden (born the same year as me ;)) has become engaged to her longtime boyfriend, Daniel Westling. The wedding will be held next summer. Daniel is a commoner, one of "us" in other words. ;) The announcement is a big deal, it's all they talk about as a matter of fact, both on TV and on the radio and the prime minister is giving a public speech right now... Well, good for Victoria & Daniel. Congrats!

Ja det är väl inte så många svenskar som undgått offentliggörandet av Kronprinsessans förlovning med Daniel Westling. Bröllop stundar nästa sommar. Grattis!

Surviving the Hudson

I'm sure you've heard about the plane that crashed in the Hudson river about a month ago. This is the audio tape from the cockpit - it is totally unbelievable that the pilot could remain so calm and composed. It sounds like this is something he does every other day. ;) When the air traffic controller asks the pilot where he would like to land, the answer at the end is "we're gonna be in the Hudson"... like it's no big deal.... Now, knowing that everybody made it out of the crash safely, one can laugh at the super calm pilot.

________________

Ni har säkert hört talas om planet som kraschlandade i Hudsonfloden i New York för ungefär en månad sedan. Samtliga passagerare klarade sig utan skador vilket är helt otroligt, men lyssna på piloten hur lugn han låter. Helt otroligt faktiskt. På slutet när flygledaren frågar "var vill du landa?"... svarar piloten: "vi kommer vara i Hudson floden"... hahaha... ja, så här efteråt kan man faktiskt skratta åt det, när man vet att alla klarade sig oskadda.

The Winner at Westminister 2009

10-yeard old Stump, a Sussex spaniel won Best in Show at the 133rd Annual Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show in New York City on Tuesday night – the oldest dog ever to receive the title.
