Goats Love Apples...

These are our.....Weed Eaters

They just adore blackberry vines

This is our newest baby...

7 month old Little Louie

We begin and end each day out at the barn

with these little beauties

All of the goats just love...apples !

Every morning they wait by the yard fence

for a bucket full of apples.

Confetti Zipper Bags...

How FUN are these !

Confetti Zipper Bags

It all begins with chopped up fabric bits...

these are so FUN to make 

with your rotary cutter !

Fabric Confetti layered 

between vinyl and white fabric

Just a bit of quilting holds the fabric bits in place.

This is a round spiral design.

I also quilted a square spiral 

which I liked even better.

After the quilting was completed,

I stitched the bag together...

I am working on my third bag...

just like potato chips...

you can't make just one !

This is an original design by:  SewHungryHippie

Feeding Cow and Calf Pairs...

This time of the year we are feeding cattle 

in 4 different locations

This is the West Fork

Cow and Calf pairs...

The mama cows gather around the round bale

and eat until they are full...

their calves linger along the fringes waiting

for their turn at the bale.

This is Apple Annie...

when she was a calf, she would come up to our yard fence,

where the apple tree was loaded with apples

and bawl loudly until I would come out

of the house and feed her apples.

She comes by her name honestly!

The Bull Field...

The bulls have been apart all summer.

We have just put them back together 

in the bull field where they will spend 

the winter months together.

They have been apart so long that they 

need to do some pushing and shoving to decide

the pecking order!

My sweet boy, Fernando....
he is a lover, not a fighter.
See the white heart on his forehead?
