First snake

My cat's not a very good hunter. She's great at finding and hunting down the little critters but once she gets them she has no idea what to do with them.....and there's NO WAY she would ever - being a princess and all - eat any thing uncooked! 
So I went out side and saw Lila in the garden just staring at something. It was this snake. She had scared it so much that it was just curled up in a little ball not daring to move. He let me pick him up, I didn't want to scare him too much more so I only put him in the jar long enough to get the picture and I put him back in the garden.  My first snake of the year, Though I really can't take any credit for finding him!

The Year Of Celebrations

I have to tell you all that I may neglect this blog - and all my blogs - a bit for the next year. I'm starting a new adventure that will require a lot of my computer time, you can see more about it - or follow it- here: http://theyearofcelebrations.blogspot.com/

I hope you will still check back on this blog - and my new one - from time to time. I will still post here, but not as much as I usually would...Sorry

Faye's new Scottish Attire

We went to IKEA in Massachusetts while visiting my grandmother, they had a stuffed dog and to go with it you could buy clothes for 99 cents each... I took one look at them and said to my self "Goat Clothes!" So here's Faye in her new stylin' Scottish clothes!

Gideon and Hans

Faye has been very lonely being the only kid on the farm, And the "Adults" didn't really want her hanging out with them. So to help her be less lonely I have borrowed two wethers from Larissa to keep her company.
Larissa doesn't usually name her wethers... I told her that if any nameless animal was coming to my house that it would end up with a "Nick Name"! She was okay with that!



First we had Gideon (Or Gid!). Him and Hans are Tilly's brothers (Different dad, same mother), Gideon looked a lot like her... in the face any way!
Gideon and Faye got along great but he has a new home now. He's been adopted by some one who wants to bring him on her walks every day! I think he'll be happy!
I will miss Gid!





Me and Hans!




Just today Hans came to stay with his half sis' for a while. Same dad, different mum! It get's very confusing! But don't worry... there's no inbreeding!
I really haven't gotten to know Hans yet. Faye seems to like him and My mom really likes him! She picked the name. His coloring and markings are very pretty, but I have to say I like Gideon's temperament!





Here's Faye and Hans

Sadie is a year old


I can't believe Sadie's a year old! And if she's a year that means my brother's almost 20 (She was his year late Graduation gift)! How did that happen?
I have been working on agility training Sadie, so if I can get some one to get some pictures I may be posting some of that!
