A Family that Rodeo's Together...

As a family, we've made it to three of Garth's Rodeo's this year (so far). Cheney was first, then Joseph, OR and last weekend was the Omak Stampede! Savannah's favorite things to watch are the tractor that rakes the area, the bronc riding and listening to all the horses winnie.

We think it's safe to say we have a cowgirl...not to mention a cowgirl that has already outgrown her first pair of boots!

1 Year Old!

It's hard to believe that Savannah is already one! There is truth when they say, "it goes by fast!" She sure has accomplished a lot in her first 12 months. Walking by her first birthday was one that mommy & daddy were very proud of. But, now we are experiencing all the new challenges that brings!

A list of some other "tricks" Savannah has learned to do:

1. drink milk from a sippy cup (no more bottle!)


2. use a spoon


3. make animal sounds (Kitty cats, lions, bees, horses, cows, and snakes...thanks to Aunt Jackie). Other sounds include the rumbling engine of trucks and/or tractors, mmm, and shh


4. smell flowers (which basically involves wrinkling her nose and blowing out of her nose instead of in)


5. blow on hot food


6. winking with both eyes


7. shake her head "no"


8. say mama and dada (mostly dada)


9. picking multiple things up with one hand


10. having both hands full of food when eating


11. ride a horse (on her own radio flyer pony or with daddy on the big horse)


12. clap hands at the end of a song


13. dance


14. throw a ball


15. pat tummy when asked where her belly button is


16. open-mouthed kisses


17. and our favorite...fetch Red!

We can only imagine what's next from here...stay tuned!
