Oh Happy Day
We have happy news of the animal husbandry type to share with you!
Sissy....
was successfully bred by Fred.....
Babies will be born in March.
Although we will know for sure after we do an ultrasound pregnancy check,
these boys are always successful in getting the "job" done!
Way to go, Fred!!
A perfect, blue-skied, 70 degree Autumn day was made even better
by a visit from Tyler, his Mommy, and his MeMaw (my Mom).
Yes, we had four generations spending a sunny day on the farm yesterday.
Here is Tyler looking at the horses,
with his MeMaw(great-grandmother) in the background...
We visited with Leo....
Gathered fresh eggs....
Ate fresh tomatoes right from the garden....
Took a walk with the turkeys....
Gave the turkeys
the "stink-eye"....
Offered the goats some yummy Ritz crackers....
"Uh, sorry....
this one's for me!"
It was an absolutely breathtakingly beautiful day on the farm...
made even better sharing it with Tyler!
PS....more equipment has arrived, but still no work done....
