Donkey and Libbie Day!

Saturday and I was out early this morning to get some photos.. we are expecting rain later - so it is very cloudy hard to get great photos... now if only that rain that we desperately need will come!!!

How is this for a Good Morning?

Coffee is a taller Mini... he can reach just over the fence with his nose.. this way he is assured to be first to get petted!

I thought this photo of Irene was kind of cool... she is sad today - her best buddy Rosie is sick again. And these two are joined at the hip, so when Rosie is sick Irene is kind of lost. I really wish we could kick these sick spells of Rosies, they are happening farther a part each time.. this time we made it nearly 8 weeks... but she is on her week of meds and should be feeling better in a day or so - (I took a photo of Rosie too... ;0( it was just too sad to show)

Two of the soon to be Mom's... Lacey is really starting to get wide.. and if that hay bale wasn't there you would see that Vickie is HUGE... I think we are within a month... at least by my counting - they have their own timeline - and yes... Macie my other really wide donkey I have been showing is still very wide..

How cute is this? Her spots are getting so dark - legs are really long, fuzzy puppy fur is almost gone.. just a few strays here and there. And those ears just make me laugh!
Uh Oh... no more posing... Teddy is coming to visit... she Loves Teddy!

First - I have to let you know, she is never allowed in the big fenced yard with out Mom or Dad... and Teddy is super gentle with her, we let her say hello give Teddy his kisses, and then we call her back to the middle of the yard. She gets so excited that she gets to say hi to him. Wish you could see how fast that little stump of a tail is going.



She really does lick the end of his nose, I think he gets a kick out of it too. Look at how small she looks here... now he is a regular size donkey, not a mini.. but still she looks so small.
I do hope these brought a smile to you today - they sure do me :)
Have a great Saturday!
HUGS and-

Wonderful pictures again but oh I feel so sorry for Rosie. Have they figured out what this is that makes her keep getting sick.

Enjoy your weekend

Thank you for the gorgeous pics Michelle, but poor Rosie! I hope she gets better very soon. Libbie is even more beautiful this week. I've missed a few Donkey & Libbie Saturdays, so it's great to catch up. Hope you all have a lovely Easter weekend.

Thank you for sharing the pictures every Saturday - I look forward to them. We used to raise standard donkeys when I was a kid - they are so fun! And Libbie - I want a little dog so badly, but DH is so allergic that we just can't have one! She is so cute!!

PaperSunshine said...

Oh those last two were for me, I just know it! LOL! I am just kidding. Teddy is my favorite as I have mentioned before - his eyes are so sweet! The pictures show them well :) And with Libbie to boot, how lucky are we to see these two cuties together! Thanks Michelle for all of your wonderful donkey and Libbie pictures!!!

Hi Michelle, I bring you greetings from a sunny Glasgow, Scotland (makes a change eh?)its still a bit chilly though so no change there, really hope you get the rain you need hun, I'll do a Scottish jig/raindance for you. I love Coffee, his smile is lovely, such a happy wee soul. I really hope Rosie will be better soon and they get to the bottom of her sickness, then Irene will be happy too. Libbie is getting so big! I remember when she was just a fluff ball lol. Thank you for donkey and libbie day, I just love it. Hugs Dawn Marie.xx

Happy Easter Michelle, lovely pics again and i do hope Rosie picks herself up real soon, Libbie's fur has changed alot and still as cute! Well done on the DT of the new Magnolia blog too.

Cynde said...

Happy Easter Michelle! I hope you and hubby have a relaxed and wonderful day. Your pictures of the "Crew" are all adorable. Sweet Libby giving kisses is too cute! I feel so bad for Rosie! I sure hope she outgrows it. I had a mare that was always getting sick, turned out she kept eating sand when she nibbled her spills off the ground. How do you stop them from doing that? She had a good feeder, but you know how they never keep their head in there! Feels so helpless when they continue to feel poorly. Hopefully Rosie will grow out of it. Thanks for the great pictures, and sharing them!
