With the start of a new year I realize that I put off my final post recapping the Gazelle wedding and my good-bye to Weddingbee far too long.
Two thousand twelve was a busy year for the Gazelles. We adopted the most adorable dog ever in March, Peat! He’s a four-year-old Scottish Terrier and we love him to pieces.
We celebrated our first anniversary in July.
We were there for the Eagles’ beautiful wedding in August, where I also got to hang out with Mrs. Cinnamon Bun!
I raced my second Ironman Canada race at the end of August.
We spent some time hiking in the beautiful Rocky Mountains around Banff National Park.
We traveled to Disney World in the fall.
All in all 2012 was a wonderful year, and I can’t wait to see what 2013 has in store for us.
Thank you to everyone at Weddingbee for being there throughout our wedding-planning journey. Being able to share the details of our wedding with you truly made the whole experience so much more special. Our wedding was one of the best days of my life, but I look forward to so many more special days with Mr. Gazelle as we grow old together.
Don’t be a stranger! Please feel free to stop by and say hi at my blog Runner Leana. I’ve been busy documenting my training for the Goofy Race and a Half Challenge at Walt Disney World in less than two weeks! I’ll be running the Disney half marathon on day one, and the full marathon on day two.
Happy New Year to the hive and thank you again for everything!

I absolutely loved reading your story! And I love the photo of the “Calgary Bees”!
You and your running amaze me! I’m going to miss you Gazelle!
You are a rock star! You will be missed!
Good luck with the races!

I’ve loved seeing your beautiful wedding, Gazelle! You racing is so inspiring, good luck with yours coming up!
Peat is the cutest dog ever! Ms. Gazelle, I wish you and Mr. Gazelle all the happiness in the world as you continue on your marriage journey. It seems like yesterday that Penguin announced the Safari generation and I still remember when you first started posting. Best wishes and good luck!!
