Rest in peace sweet Haley:
Posted on | January 8, 2013 | 5 Comments
Our beloved dog Haley passed away yesterday. She has been with us from the great lakes to the high desert to the pacific ocean. She was an expert at begging/food stealing (including a entire plate of christmas cookies, a birthday cake, a whole pizza to name a few). She was hiking at Puck Lake with us when Brad proposed, stood loyally in our wedding, and was the first to greet baby Hazel just hours after she was born. She taught us to live in the moment, to love deeply & loyally. I made this video for B yesterday (she was the first gal in his life, pre-April) as he was burying her on our property. I wanted to post it here to share how much we loved her.
We will miss you forever big H!

I'm so sorry, April... I'm dreading the day we have to say good bye to our pups. She sounds a lot like our older pup. Thinking of you.
