Baby Willie/Sunburst Trip

Teague is quite the individual. I told him to try on the lifejacket to see if it fit. He decided it would look cooler with a Nerf tactical vest over the top of it.
Teague and Link get along great most of the time. Teague was trying to help him put his socks on. It was going great! They were both laughing, and I love their silly faces here. I believe he took off right to Watford City after this. He loves being in Kindergarten this year and is a very smart little guy!
I had originally wanted two puppies when we got Buster, but he was the last one. Laney was just such a solitary little dog. She was nervous and didn't really like other animals. We realized we were all heading back to school and Buster would be all alone (so sad!). Luckily we happened to see his half-brother in the paper! So, we went to Helena and picked up this cute little guy!

They immediately loved each other. Here they are wrestling together! They never hurt each other, and they always worry where the other one is. It's about the cutest thing in the world.
Brothers! We decided to stick with the San Francisco Giants theme and name our new little guy  Willie, for Willie Mays.
It's funny to look back at these. Willie was so tiny! Abb and Jord loved him of course!
Just a little ball of fluff! He's the kissiest dog in the whole world. He loves to get pet, sit on your lap, and sneak attack/lick your face.
More playing! Willie's tail is wagging 90% of the time.
My hydrangea plant was so pretty this year! The flowers started out kind of tinted green, then turned to white, light pink, and finally dark pink. I'm so hoping it survives our winter and comes back next year!
Sneak attack for Kyle!
Sleeping puppies.Willie loves to sprawl on his back!
We got some of the images back from Nikki for the cousins pictures. I absolutely love this one! Hawkins looks like the little elephant from The Jungle Book leading the parade. Such purpose in that stride!
I feel like this candid shot really shows their personalities!
Teague dug a hole by the lilac bushes a long time ago. These two loved it!
Happy friends having a treat.
Awww....
We went up to Sunburst for Great-Grandma Bonnie's birthday on August 31st. Willie and Buster were intimidated by Lady at first, but then they played and played.
Happy Birthday Bonnie!
Teague always has to go for a ride in the Gator when we are there.
Bonnie's house is gorgeous. I love the stone work.
We have a picture of Kyle holding Carter by the wheel well when he was a baby. He's just a bit bigger now!
Rory is such a cutie. She loves animals and she loves to wear sunglasses. She made us laugh!
As usual, the baby loved Avery.
It's always nice to see all the cousins playing together.
Grandma Bonnie and the Barsness great grandkids. They had been running outside. My three look very sweaty!
Hanging with their best buddy Callie!
Two silly puppies on the ride home. They always have to be right next to each other!
Dirty wet dogs drinking out of the sprinkler. They love water!
Man, this makes me miss summer! Willie was such a little chubby guy! He's definitely thinned out with lots of running and playing. He still loves to steal rawhides from Buster and eat all the dog food in the bowl. Poor Buster is too nice and just stares at us like, "Do you see what he's doing?"
