Hi.. Well today is not a great day for taking Donkey Day photos... Macey and Felicia are still sick, a little bit better but not well enough for photos. And well.... IT RAINED LAST NIGHT!!! Ok, so it was only 1/4 of an inch... BUT IT RAINED!!! and there is more in the forecast today.. I so hope we get more.
I am so glad that I went out earlier in the week and took photos on evening.. everyone was feeling well and happy.. and well I got TONS of great donkey day photos.. and YES Libbie photos!
First an update from the Doc yesterday.. he thinks that we caught Macey in time and she should make it through this... Felicia as well.. as long as she keeps eating to keep her strength up she should be bouncing around in a few days... I pray that both are true. It was the Hay that made them sick. We have removed that hay completely and are working at getting it returned to the "hay man" and then we will start working on getting new...
But how about some happy photos?
First I thought you might like to see what Hubby and I do every 3 hours... He is such a big boy and usually finishes every last drop out of his little silver bucket!
When done... He usually shows off his "GOT MILK?" smile.... is he cute or what?
And as they say "Milk does a Body Good!" He looks wonderful has filled out and loves to run and play.
It is a good thing that he is all black and his brother has the cream nose and ears... other wise it would get tough to know who was who... "My Bookend Brothers".....
Carlos is doing great as well. We call him "trouble" He loves to stir things up - whether that be us feeding Sergio, The Lady donkeys trying to eat.. or just running and kicking up dirt. He is so funny he doesn't rub up against you when you come into the pen... he literally leans and the lays over against you.. he either ends up on his side.. or you do yours! :0)
Here is my beautiful little girl.. Felicia - this was a couple of days before she got sick. She is just so small, especially when next to her brothers... and she is so sweet and gentle compared to them as well. The perfect little girl... now for her to get back to this happy, playful, sweet look - right now she is laying under the tree with her head hanging... in fact when done here.. I am going to talk to her and move her around a bit.
LIBBIE PHOTOS!!!
Now I have really had a very hard time taking Libbie photos the past month or so. But the day I was out taking the donkey photos I think she wanted her time as well. I told her to sit and look pretty for the camera..... and well I got over 25 really wonderful Libbie photos! Here are three of my favorites -
A serious pose.... very rare for this little girl.
OOPS... a bird caught her attention -
Close up anyone? I really just need to start facing her the other way - as that sun really does make her squint...you can't see her ice blue eyes! Just love her ears have flopped evenly... to adorable.
Well hope you enjoyed Donkey/Libbie Day - maybe by next week photos I can get all three babies playing together!! Healthy and Happy. And yes.. I know I have lots of other donkeys to show off too :0)

Michelle,
I am SO sorry to hear about Cheyenne! I haven't been following your blog as closely as usual, so had to go back a few posts to see what happened. My heart just goes out to you! It is SO very difficult to lose a friend like that! At least she left you some absolutely adorable little babies to care for! Take care and give those babies some extra hugs from me!
Awww these photos are so heartwarming and look at Libbie she looks so proud - she is very beautiful and I think she knows it too!! LOL
