Animal Crackers - WE ARE FREE... sort of...

Yesterday we created a temporary area off of the Young Girls pen - an area to let them eat some green growing grass. Why mow it? Especially when their pen isn't taking off so well with them eating things before they even get a chance to grow.. LOL
 Here they are just starting to come out their gate... run hurry.... Check out how high Mirta has her back end off the ground! LOL Wish Lina wasn't in the way darn it!
 They were all lapping the open area - running and bucking!!! YEE HAW! Fresh grass and Freedom!!! Well... a little more freedom ;0)
 This one is blurry I know... they were running and I was laughing... But look All fours off the ground here!
 And then all together it sounded like everyone was "Thanking Us" all at once. Man the neighbors were probably wondering what we were doing... IT WAS LOUD! LOL Hubby and I were both laughing so hard.... they are just too funny!

Then I went to see the babies.... 
Sonia is getting to where she is gonna need a hair clip to hold back those bangs! I hate that they loose that as they get older... Many of them are starting to get that woolly look to them. Funny some get long winter fur and some don't. But when those that do... do, it is gonna be a cold winter!

Miss Estella... "Stella"

Ok.. I don't have favorites you know.... But oh my "Stella" has personality that just melts my heart. She is soooo funny, warm and LOVES Donkey hugs. When she sees me come out the back of the house, she grunts at me.  And she loves for me to sing to her.  We sing "Stella bo bella... fee fi bo...." You know the banana song? Come on all together now... LOL

Sorry this next one is a HORRIBLE photo... bad lighting, and it was taken with my phone. 

But I just couldn't miss it. Chica and Gato were on the bedroom floor the other night. Chica gave Gato about a 30 minute bath - You know those hard to get places... her ears, above her eyes, all down her next. Hope Chica doesn't get a fur ball.....

Now one more photo... this one again isn't great as Hubby took it with his phone at work -
 Is this a scream or what? Hubby has lots of pet cats at work... strays that they feed. After getting them all trapped and fixed of course. Population control for sure! Anyway - Hubby gets attached to all animals around him. At work it is these cats... this is one of his favorites - taking a "Cat Nap" in the afternoon sun. Was sound asleep... Too funny.

Well hope you all have a wonderful Saturday - Hubby and I have been deep in re-doing... one mess has led to another and another and another.... I'll snap some photos to share later in the week -

HUGS and

Terrific photos Michelle! The girls were definitely enjoying their new space. Miss Stella is a beauty alright & how unsurprising that Gato has a servant!!
Now that I've had my Animal Crackers 'fix' I'm off to continue making my Christmas projects. Have a great weekend.

what a great pictures again; I wish the picture of them thanking you should have sound with it. The babies are cute (my Michelle wanted to know if they are for sale), but unfortunately I have no room for these lovely ones, otherwise ;-) Hugs and have a nice weekend.
