The Ranch

Bekah, Dakota and I took a quick sunday trip to my grandparents house in the foothills. The excuse was to preg check some cows, but it was all together really a relaxing day. Here are a few pictures from the day. Yes the hat was borrowed, I was playing sidekick for the real cowboy standing next to me. Dakota enjoyed her first ride with Dad. I don't think she really understood that the horse was alive, but she still seemed to enjoy it. Her Daddy certainly did even if she didn't.

Just a few more pics from home

Uncle drews puppy Baron with Dakota

Dakota is a big fan of puppies, lately she even tries to imitate there bark with her own version, although she is not quite able to figure out how to make the noise. Baron was just the perfect size, although he has already out grown these pictures and now lives in Bako with Uncle Drew.

Dakota at 9 months...

A couple of weeks ago Dakota's two front teeth decided to come. She looks like a little girl now! She continues to make us laugh and she still enjoys being center of attention.
Papa Bussell got this shirt for her when she was born...now she can finally wear it! It quotes, "Being this adorable just tires me out." And that is so true!

This past weekend we went to LA for a wedding. I just wanted to share how cute Dakota was. She did so well.
