Star... about 2-3 weeks left

Due February 11th or February 16

This picture is from Jan. 9, shes bigger now but I just love this picture

Goin by Star's 1st date with Ringo yesterday maked 2 more weeks before she kids. When I went out to collect eggs yesterday night I sat in the goat barn for a few minutes watchin them rest/sleep. Star and her son Boots were cuddled up together, Star's belly looked so big and I saw the babies moving around in it... I didnt try to feel them cause she doesnt like that. She was moaning alittle I'm sure shes already uncomfortable being so big. I miss having babies on my farm, cant wait to see the lil cuties ♥

We Need More Eggs Mom...

 My human daughter left the nest as of last night, you can read all about it H-E-R-E. Earlier this week I was in the kitchen fixing myself some breakfast taking for granted the yummy farm fresh eggs  that sit in a basket on my counter and a thought popped in my head... " I'm gonna have to make sure my daughter and her fiance have a nice supply of my yummy eggs... cant have my baby girl eating those pale, yucky, no tasting store eggs!" Tomorrow their coming to visit, I'll send them home with 3 dozen.  You know how it is when your young, in love and moved out for the first time in your young life... might not have much money or food but if your momma keeps you supplied with farm fresh eggs your good, wont go hungry, so many yummy egg recipes.  Now I just need to teach the girl how to make/bake homemade bread

One of my pretty girls that gives me eggs

Look at them colorful eggs. 
I love it.

Blessings come in many ways, shapes and forms.. 
be wise enough to recognize them..

I love this horse...

A horse doesn't care how much you know, until he knows how much you care

She knows when you're happy
She knows when you're comfortable
She knows when you're confident
And she always knows when you have carrots.

Miss Flicka ALWAYS knows when I have carrots in my pocket
