Living in the country

Just a little more info on the goats.  Saturday morning Cedar went over to check on them she came back and said Queen had babies, she thought there was three.  Then Ethan, who had been feeding the bigs, came back and said there were two.  We finished eating breakfast and went over to check on them.  There were three little kids and queen, all freezing and wet in their little goat hut.  So we loaded them in the truck and brought them over to the garage where we could warm them up.  Queen had not past the afterbirth yet, but after getting into the garage she did, except it wasn't the afterbirth, it was another goat.  There were three little girls, all white and light brown, and one little buck, black with white spots.  They are all doing well.  We will be helping Queen feed them for the next few weeks as she can't keep up with them.  It has been kind of fun to help care for them.

Here are a few more pictures that Cedar took.

Brett mowed off the tall grass and small trees in the pasture next door to us two days ago.  Yesterday and today there have been about 20 wild turkeys in our back pasture.  I think Brett must have mowed off their cover.  It is fun to see them.  I sure do like living in the country!  Especially when it is less than 10 minutes from town!
