Updates...mostly on our dog.

Well... we've been in our house a month or so now. We are very happy here, it is coming together very nicely. Although we've been trying to save some dough because of our current "job situations," we have still been able to get some stuff done. The biggest project we've done so far is ripping out and replacing our backyard planter. And by that I mean, I took a sledgehammer to the first brick and Bobby & Co. had to finish the rest (Thanks babe!). Turns out it wasn't as easy of a project as I thought it would be. After the new bricks were all set in place, I got to pick out and plant the greenery/flowers. Dakota is quite the little monster and eats everything that fits in his mouth. And even things that don't quite fit in his mouth. So we've had to "doggy-proof" our backyard to ensure that nothing is toxic for dogs. Mainly because we are certain he will eat anything and everything that we put out there- so far he has proved our assertion right. He did get his little paws (actually they are quite large paws) on a sago palm, which is one of the most toxic plants for dogs to eat. The vet said it could be very serious, but I guess Dakota has a stomach of steel because the very next night he ate chocolate cake and has yet to show any symptoms of being ill.
We recently took him to the beach since he got his last set of shots. As you can see, he thoroughly enjoyed himself.

This is Dakota on his second trip to the beach- a little bit more brave. He decided to take a swim.

He is like our baby, hence all of the updates on our dog. Last one- Dakota showing the geese who's boss at the park.
