Buster Brown and Cupcake were getting so big by mid-May that I decided to have a baby goat weigh-in. Have you ever seen such an adorable baby goat-in-a-bag??  Cupcake was cute too but a little more squirmy.  They weighed in at around 23 lbs. each and then we enjoyed some cuddle time on the basement … Continue reading Baby Goat-In-A-Bag →

May 15th was a beautiful day and the kids arrayed themselves in the afternoon sunshine on the back stairs.  But they were eager to leave their basking to go for a walk!  New life plays in the place where Jet’s memories are buried.

Goes very … Continue reading Sweet Treats →

It’s been a while since I’ve posted, but then again, there hasn’t been a ton of activity around here lately. The piles of January snow melted into mud, and just as the grass started poking through and things began to dry out near the end of February, we got more snow! We’ve been very fortunate … Continue reading Catching Up →
