Yay, another journal to follow! :) I don't participate an awful lot in them, but I enjoy hearing and seeing what you all are up to. Loving the pics over here so far. You should submit for the Pic of the Week. @Hinotori needs some competition ;) Looking forward to seeing and reading more from you!

A little introduction of the goats here:

Tilda the SNubian, the very first goat I was never planning to own who picked me and 4 weeks later came home with me and a wether buddy who has since left us to be a pita, I mean Pet, for someone else. I swore up and down that I would NEVER own a white goat. EVER. :hide That worked out well being as how my FIRST was white and all.

Olive the Alpine, our replacement for the wether.

CeCe the registered Nubian who came to us in pretty rough shape this spring and has since been doing wonderfully. She also has her milk star! Did not know of that when I agreed to buy her so it was a plus!

And Ellie, our sweet and sassy Ellie. After a lot of loss, frustration and sadness (followed by a 15 hour round trip road trip to bring a wee 7.5 pound 17 day old Ellie home) this bubbly little snot of a spoiled absafreakinlutely ROTTEN, adorable, PITA, ray of sunshine, wild child of a Bottle baby was a welcome joy that I never expected.

Kit Kat the registered nubian buck will be joining the herd as well this summer

Let us not forget the single most important one though! RALPHIE! The VERY FIRST baby born to the farm (Blazing Acres)! :ya He is half Alpine, half Nubian and goes to his new home Saturday.

Some other photos I didn't have on my phone last night.

The only dog he has ever liked. He has tolerated many, but only liked this one. I think it is because she too, is blue.

The puppies. Oh my heart swells and shatters all in the same sense when I see these photos. My sweet boy, my sweet girl. Gone but never forgotten.

I focus mostly on farm/ animals and I have some really excitingly new ones in the works. I say ONES because, simply put, I lose interest and find something else I want to do more... very easily.
