Animal Crackers - Early Morning

Howdy - 

Didn't make it out yesterday to get photos. Worked to late and then it just got to dark. So I got up early this morning and went out to get some photos before breakfast. You know if they get fed I get no faces at all! LOL 

Lacey came up first this morning. Such a sweet girl and my is she getting grey!

Love her personality and her long long ears! So sweet. But watch out charging up behind her is Juliet!!! 

Full speed this big girl loves to front and center for the attention. Ears back is get out of my way I'm coming through... seriously.... I snapped quick cuz I knew what the next view would be - 

EXTREME CLOSE UP!

This girl cracks me up! She loves to her nose scratches and to have 110% of the attention that is for sure! I gave her lots of scratches and then tried to move on to Macey ... but oh my look out Macey... Juliet is coming up behind you!!
 

I got one photo of Macey and about 10 seconds of ear scratches and Juliet was front and center again. LOL It takes two to get photos some days... one to take the photos and one to entertain Juliet!

So moving on to the goat pen was next. I found Lizzy doing some early morning back scratches... must have felt pretty good she was really doing a dance against that hut base! 

 

 But Surprisingly after that she walked towards me and then let me love on her. She is so moody most of the time but this morning was a good morning and I got her good side! 

Thought I would show off the tomatoes 

 

... Now the plants are not the prettiest, but hey these are Hubby's Spring Tomatoes.... he cut back and brought back through the summer. And man the tomatoes have been coming on strong!! And really that is all that matters right! YUM YUM!!!

Hope you have wonderful weekend plans - And that you enjoyed Animal Crackers and have a smile on your face! If not... go back and take a look at Juliet again!

Animal Crackers - Silly Silly Silly

Howdy - 

Out taking a few photos and saw Chipmunk using his tongue to reach out and grab the limbs he couldn't reach through the fence. Very resourceful! and Silly! 

I just love this boy he is just so funny! Great personality Big Guy! 

Then I hear this little sad moan... Oh my Darlene you are not starving to death! You may be hungry but not starving! 

This is the sad sad face of an old lady watching "Dad" very closely to see if she is getting her old people gruel anytime soon... and yes it was coming very soon.... 

Now this is a very different sad look... 

This is Raphael "Raffie" Our Smiling Donkey, our Stud. This is him with a longing stare through his fence at the "Women" off in their pen. He so wants some women in his pen. No worries Raffie we have discussed it Raffie, and it is starting to cool off and it is almost time to give you some girlfriends for your bachelors pad! 

And one we are discussing to be one of those girlfriends... is Miss Bella!! She is such a good Momma and we are hoping that we can get a pretty little spotted girl maybe???? 

Healthy is the main prayer... Girl is the next prayer... spots are the next prayer.. he he he 

Speaking of pretty spotted girl - Penelope was chilling in the shade watching everything going on. Such a sweet girl and so very pretty. 

Being a goat is such a busy tough life... LOL 

Speaking of tough life... McLaren was really having a hard time napping on "Dad's" lap. He was watching F1 Racing and it gets loud.. so you have to cover your face to sleep I suppose. But hey that is where the kitties got their names so they really need to appreciate it at least a little right?
 

Funny Kitties... Heck Funny Animals all around. They are all so entertaining! 

Hope you have your Animal Crackers Smiles!

Animal Crackers - Sweet noses

Howdy - 

Visiting the girls after getting a load of hay, the youngest were really wanting attention! Hannah was the first to push her way thru the fence to get her loving! Such a sweet girl! 

Josie, Hannah's little shadow was right behind her... her eyes are so expressive! And usually not quite as pushy as Hannah she really does love the attention just as much. But being smaller than her slightly older 1/2 sister she is usually a step behind Hannah. 

Last week we shared the men in their front pen while enjoying their hay. With a little bit of rain comes some growth of a tiny green grass.... that means they love to leave the hay and graze!!

There is nothing more peaceful than watching my donkeys grazing... 

Speaking of peaceful.... Our kitties love to spend their time in the window beds... LOL 

Very Relaxed...  LOL She woke up just as I snapped the photo... this is the "Mom why are you taking another photo of me?" Look.

Snapped this photo coming out the back door the other morning to send to Hubby.... LOL He hates these! Do you have Walking Sticks where you live? 

 I think they are kind of cool... but he says they are evil... LOL

Hope you enjoyed this week - and have your Animal Crackers Smile!

Animal Crackers - Day Late

Howdy - 

Oops... Got working on a project in the house and well... days got away from me. One little project and now my house is all torn up and things are a big can of worms! But will be all worth it when done. Anyway the day got away from me and I didn't get my post done on time to go out on time yesterday. Guess that is just how life is lately. I'll do my best but things may from time to time go hay wire! Just how my life is now.  LOL

 This week Hubby and I were up with the "Men" just after 7 am with their breakfast feeding. Always can count on some happy faces when they have been fed first thing in the morning. 

Miguel and Flavio stopped and posed for the camera. Handsome men that is for sure! And looking  a little bulky too... he he 

But that is ok guys will be good to keep you warm this winter right? 

Now Diego... he didn't want to stop eating to have his photo taken. Chewing but finally did look over at us... Hey at least we got a glance during his meal. 

The most skittish is always our man Patricio "Pat Man" But Hubby has a way with him and he stood and let him get a photo and then let him rub all over him. That makes me happy. 

 He was such a sweet friendly baby... then sold. When we rescued him back to keep him and Flavio from going to auction he was very skittish it has taken a long while for him to be as calm as he is. And really Hubby is the only one he will let rub on him most of the time. I occasionally can scratch between his ears and talk to him. But we do love him and I am so glad that he can live here stress free and happy now. 

Lately we have been having lots of little feet prints on the trucks... hmmmm never had that before even with always having outside kitties. Hubby sent me this photo the other day to show me proof that it was both Greybeard and Momma that was guilty - 

Not that they would ever be in trouble of course! LOL Hubby could never get mad at his kitties! 

I just had to take a photo of one of his Hibiscus flowers this week to show it off. First part of September and they are just gorgeous!

They have bloomed all summer strong! Love this one with the dark pink flower pattern in the bright pink. Now he is getting ready for things to bloom for the fall. Always growing and blooming! 

Hope you have a smile and sorry it was a day late!
