Howdy -
As I went out to take photos of the ladies they were much more interested in watching "Dad" as usual. Things are hot and dry now so getting their hay is much anticipated each day, than in spring when they have grass to graze.
They were not too happy when he went off in a different direction.... LOL but he was cleaning out the truck to go and get a load of hay from the field so it was going to be promising in the end for them, right?
Bella still keeping a watch as the truck was backing up and diving off to hook up the trailer. Just in case it was a mistake and he was going to come her direction. Such a sweet pretty girl with her long slim long ears.
One of my main goals was to get a photo of Josie and Hannah and show off how shiny and slick they both are right now. I found Josie first... sigh just after she got up from a nice wonderful dirt roll!!! You can sort of see how shiny she is... but my she has lots of dirt and dried grass on her! I guess I didn't warn her I was coming to take her photo.
I tried to explain that is not so lady like and she should stay clean and pretty - but hey it must feel good to them because they all love a good "dirt bath" roll!
Hannah was off standing behind some of the girls and she too had evidently had a good dirt roll this morning. But you can still see just how slick and pretty she is!
Then the fences were started banging and everyone was shoving for attention. Since "Dad" wasn't coming they all wanted their personal attention. Patti was really making sure to push up front even if it meant getting squished!! LOL
Made sure to really give her some loving for working so hard for it! Such a sweet old girl!
Just had to show off Hubby's Hibiscus flowers that opened up yesterday! They are so stunning! and huge!
As hot as it is and they love it! Me I'm wilting... but they thrive! Photo really doesn't show off just how stunning the red is.
Yesterday we spent some time in the hay field like we promised the ladies... bringing in more hay! Always have to bring in more hay.
We are so blessed that Hubby is such a hard worker... `100 degrees and he was loading up the 75-100 lb hay bales on the trailer. I know I kid and say I am there helping. But seriously, I am driving the truck in the AC with the windows rolled up. So I am not suffering at all. He gets in the truck soaking wet with hay and dirt all over him. I love this man he takes care of ALL of us!!
I hope you all have a blessed weekend - and that you have an Animal Crackers Smiles again this week.
HUGS and
