Goats ~

 Daisy above, Dam to April.


Blossom jumping onto the water tank.They have a lot of fun shoving each other off it.


April ,  she had to try to play with the cane after Blossom did.


April is a sweet heart, no where near as rowdy as Blossom is.
April jumping off the water tank.... ok shoved off by Blossom...


Blossom playing with my cane.



 
Blossom became tired of trying to figure out what to do with the cane, so she tossed it to the ground. LOL


April jumping onto another water tank and scaring one of the chickens at the same time.


Theo and his squabs ~


Was worried since Theo lost his foot while he was gone, that he would not be able to have offspring.
So I let Astra sit on some eggs, so I would know 
one way or another.
Both hatched.

This is the only set of babies I will let them have, since we are heading into winter.

Hand-spinning in Oregon ~


Back in Oregon, when I still had long hair, I enjoyed handspinning yarn on my small front porch. There is something very peaceful about this hobby.

Some of the yarn I was working on at the time.

My Mother knitted my yarn into a beautiful scarf! 
(The pillow is one of my watercolor paintings)

Bouncing Teenage Kids~


Looked out the kitchen window and what do I see.
Blossom, bouncing up and down on Stjarna's back.
Was trying to take a shot of her catching air but my timing was not good enough. LOL

Stjarna was being super careful and walking veryyyy slow.


Stjarna did not like the male goats, but the female Kids,,, 
she lets them do anything.

Snacks ~


The perfect snack.
Petit Basque sheep cheese, grapes and  a pear 
from my little Orchard.
On my favorite china. 
Blanket has one of my paintings on it.

Tractor work ~


Miss having Dyfra in the horse pasture, she kept all the grass eaten down to the point it never looked like there was anything growing.

I had to send her away over a year ago because she ended up with very bad asthma and allergies and my last Icelandic horse, lets just say she is picky.

The little goats do their best but the grass has gotten out of hand.
Hard to see here, but much of it is as tall as my knees.

Mia~


Mia has decided hanging out in DH's Armoire is fun.
She is really good at opening doors.
