Animal Crackers - What a Look!

Howdy - 

I don't think Ferrari was ready to wake up this morning! It was a chilly morning and she was cuddled up in her quilt at the end of the bed warm and that light did not make her happy! Is that an unhappy look or what?? LOL

 

That Kitty is not a morning kitty at all! I'm with you baby! No worries - she got happy as soon as she heard her bowl clink in the kitchen! 

But as soon as we went out side it was like a repeat of last weekends photo... but this time it was Cocoa screaming out! FEED ME!!! I'm STARVING!!! UH If you could see her belly you would know that was not true... hungry maybe.. starving no. But she was fed right away not a moment wasted old girl!

Shame you couldn't hear her... she has that old long hee haw that is just so heart wrenching. You have to stop and pay attention to her when she calls out! 

I then had to pay attention to Chipmunk He was head banging a bit on the fence to get his attention. I asked him why he has to do that... may not hurt his head but watching it makes mine hurt!!

Such a handsome man! Love that long flowing black beard! And yes it has hay flowing stuck in it.... that is a good place to store your hay for later, didn't you know that??  

I tried to find some of the girl donkeys to photo this week. But it has been windy and cold for the last few days and they were hunkered down in the back of their pasture in the bushes grazing and honestly it was too cold to walk back to photo them so early in the morning. I am so over cold already... and yes I know it hasn't even really started yet. yuck! 

Thought I would show this weeks Greenhouse update since there was lots of changes this week.  You can't tell by this photo but most of the roof is on. all the windows and the door... and now all the siding is going on next! So it should be able to be heated up and have the plants in it before the first freeze! Oh he will still have trim and pretty stuff to do to it, but it will be usable!

 

Can't wait until next Spring! Then he will start doing the planting around it and putting in gardens around it! Then it will look like the photos in the books he has been showing me forever! 

Hope you have enjoyed! Have a blessed weekend!

Animal Crackers - Demanding!

Howdy - 

Not only blocking the gate out of the backyard, but very demanding that his breakfast is first!! That is our Teddy! 

 

Now trying to explain to this enormous fellow that in order to get him his breakfast he has to get out of the way of the gate so we can open the gate is not easy! The very LOUD hee haws and the banging on the gate makes his point but he still has to MOVE!! LOL... such a funny big boy! 

After the children had been fed we took off to feed us! Then coming back into our front gate the men in the front pen were up front so we pulled over to visit. Love getting to love on my guys. My very first baby donkey Diego... such a sweet baby! All though now not a baby, but always my baby boy... 

He came straight to me and I had a chance to love all over him before the other guys made it to me. They all get so pushy. And Diego is not as pushy so he moves to the back of the group. So I LOVE when I get private time with him. My first sweet little baby boy!

Miguel made his way to "Dad" first and was pushing his way over the fence for loving. When did all my fur children all start getting so gray? Again ... getting older but still my babies! 

And standing off to the side handsome man Patricio "Pat Man" - I got a slight little head scratch before he moved off. Handsome just like his Daddy Black Jack.


Came around the corner into the kitchen and found Bubba asleep in the middle of floor... yep in the position. Exact position. Just as I snapped the photo one eye opened. LOL I think I woke the sleeping giant... ha!

One more photo... The first stages of Hubby's Greenhouse... We moved the ladies goat pen back now that there are as many of them and Hubby is going to have a bigger garden and greenhouse in the backyard. Started his Antique Roses and other plants a few months ago and now he needs a close place to keep them warm in the winter. I think this is going to be great - and look great. He is using old windows in it so I think it will look "cute" as well as being practical!


Will show more photos as it moves forward! 

Hope You have a Animal Crackers Smiles ! Have a blessed Weekend

Animal Crackers - Early Morning

Howdy - 

Went out early this morning to take photos. Had to... only way to make sure and get those faces before breakfast time! 

I'm not sure why this photo make me smile each time I take this same photo! But today it really make me grin. Josie wanted so bad to come to me. But I think Mom was giving look... "Girl... Eyes this way... Breakfast is coming soon!" LOL 

As "Dad" came by and was loading up breakfast and they were trying to be patient. I got a sweet photo of Mom and Daughter. Jolene and Josie. 

Fanci Pants was stomping and snorting she was seeing the hay being loaded up... oh it was so exciting! BREAKFAST!!!

And the Patti was giving me that side glancing look... it is so much better to look mature and stand calm. LOL  But I could tell she was ready to run as soon as the hay hit the ground!

Now Lizzy she was calling out to "Dad" to make sure he knew she was here. I really hated to break it to her.... but she didn't finish yesterday's hay. No wasting hay... Don't finish what you have you don't get more.



Came inside to find Momma laying upside down in the window bed. She does love living inside. Very happy - Very comfortable - That makes me Very happy!


 Hope you enjoyed! And have your Animal Crackers Smile! 

Have a Blessed Weekend!

Animal Crackers - Chica here...

Howdy - 

Ok So I missed last week.... and this week I have Chica here.... 

Hoping this sweet little face makes you smile. And forgive me. This week ain't much better. It's been a rough week and well just can't get things all done. 

Prayers for my Mom please. She has been pretty sick and in the hospital all week. Getting her home this weekend, and hopefully healthier! 

Also this week AC went out AGAIN... have a plan LMNOP for that but had to do without for a few days. But happy to report that is all better now and at this point should not be an issue any further! Please no more issues with that! 

So we are hoping and praying that things will start looking a bit more like normal. Ferrari and McLarren will be very please with that! All though the day the windows were up that tiny bit while "Dad" was working on things was a very interesting day around here! LOL



 So many smells and louder noises! 

So forgive the very short post this week. But hey I got one on this week! But off to see Mom! 

Have a blessed weekend - HUGS
