News of Halette and Hestia

I'm feeling really proud of my sisters right now! Wanna know why?

First off, my sister Halette is graduating as a Guide on February 18, 2012 for the Guide Dogs for the Blind campus in San Rafael, CA. Go Halette!!!! I knew her perfect person would find her soon. I'm so happy she'll be home for her birthday (which is also my birthday since we're sisters). I really, really wish I could go up to San Rafael and see her graduate, but I'm sure I'll get to see pictures. It's not as good, but it's also not too bad. I'll be cheering her on in spirit.

Halette is the last of our litter to graduate. That means that Halette and Hermes are Guides, Hestia is a Breeder, and Hana (medical), Hanalei (medical), Havasu (temperament), and myself (behavior issues) are all Career Changes. Not a bad litter if I do say so myself.

Now on to Hestia. Hestia had her ultrasound the other day. You know what it said? It said she's gonna have 5-6 puppies! I'm gonna be an aunt to 5 or 6 cutie pie puppies (well, they are related to me so they have to be cuties). I'm so excited! Maybe I'll even be able to name one of them. I think it would be cool if they were also "H" puppies and one of them was named "Hilly" after their coolest aunt!

That's all the updates for now. Momma is trying to get my Grandma Amy to take me with her to a cabin for a weekend. She thinks I would have so much fun and I have to say, I don't disagree at all!

Love and Lab Kisses,
Hilly

An Update

My sister Halette is still in the last phase of formal training. I hope she finds her special someone soon! My brother Hermes graduated on November 19!!! I wasn't sure if I was allowed to post the picture I found of Hermes and his new partner because it's copyrighted but you can just follow the link to the GDB flickr site! The first link goes straight to his picture and the second to the flickr site. You all should check out the great pictures there. There are pictures of my and my brother and sisters when we were little babies too!  

Also, because it seems that I get into a lot of trouble when my grandparents are away at work they and my momma have been talking about what to do. With all this talking my Grandma Marion decided to start taking me to work with her whenever she could. She took me for the first time on Monday and she said I did awesome! She said I was a born supervisor.

She said that I do have to stop pulling so much, but I can't help it. I'm just so excited about getting to go to work! I get to wear my ambassador scarf and everything.

Saying all of that, I still can't wait until Momma comes back for her winter break! Just 17 days left!

My One and Only Brother

Guess what I found out today? That my brother Hermes is in Class up at Guide Dogs! Hooray! I'm so proud of my brother Hermes. I can't wait to see his graduation pictures. He'll look all grown up and in a harness and Guiding his perfect match around.

Way to go Hermes!

Halette is still waiting for her perfect match, but I'm sure she'll find one soon!

Love and Lab Kisses (to my brother Hermes),
