Hiker Babe

You can decide whether I'm talking about Dakota or myself...
Jacob, Dakota, Siler and I headed to the Ozarks in Arkansas this past weekend for a family mini-vacation which was MUCH needed. We've been spending too many weekends at home lately and we were getting a little stir crazy. We left Friday evening and heading to Razorback country to a nice area called Richland Creek. We set up our tent on a sandy area along the creek but in the morning we were told that we had to move because the campground was closed. We moved to an "approved" area and then went on a nice hike to Twin Falls. The area has gotten a lot of rain (haven't we all??) so the falls were beautiful. The hike going to the falls was an adventure thanks to poor trails and a landslide last year. It tooks us several hours for a so-called 2.5 mile hike. Thankfully on the return we had an easier way finding the trail and made it back in less than an hour. We appreciate the kind soul who put pink ribbons on the trees! Dakota did amazing and didn't even fuss when it rained on us :). She's such a trooper!! Siler had an amazing time too and was such a good dog on the whole trip. Enjoy the pictures (in no particular order)! Next hiking adventure...SD/ND highpoints over July 15. Can't wait!

Dakota LOVES Siler!

Hiking can be tiring!
I love that little girl!

My favorite, of course, is the one where she's sticking out her tongue. HILARIOUS! She's so cute.
