youall I have a secret

I WANT one of those puppies!!! :love However, DH, budget and space preclude me getting one. :hit

I LOVE the pic of 3 of her puppies standing to nurse!!! :love That is just TOO cute!!!

We have tomatoes that are just a hair bigger than those. The label says they are “Sweet 100s”. What a waste!!!! We get maybe 4 or 5 at one time on a HUGE bush. I’m with you goatgurl! I’ll never buy Sweet 100s again!

PUPPIES!!! :love:love GIMMEE, GIMMEE! Can I have one please? :bow They look fabulous! Didn't you only recently place the last pups? Glad you've had all the rain you need... Guess that was me last year and we've "swapped places" as I am dry, dry, dry down here...

I am thinking about a female puppy in the next year or so. Paris is 9ish years old and I need to think about getting another dog. Trip is a decent guard, but on his own terms and right now, at this moment, his terms include stretched out in the floor enjoying the AC. Trip with no Paris would be a disaster. Paris is the fierce protector, she loves what she does.

well life continues uninterrupted here on the farm. the older does are all bred but i'm holding off on the doelings for a month or two. brought in a new guy to breed the younger girls to. the first thing you may notice are the ears on this guy. he is a kiko/boer/Nubian cross and from the side view you can't tell how wide he is. his dad goes about 280# and mom is close to 200# it will be interesting to see if the babies come out with ears.
IMG_2818 (3).JPG ram is here and i'm guessing that the ewes are bred by now. time will tell on that. everyone is fat and happy, the grass is still green and growing so that's all good. IMG_2855.JPG IMG_2862.JPG IMG_2757 (2).JPG IMG_2758 (2).JPG
i'm still polishing rocks, here are a couple of the latest before and after pics. keeps me off the street and out of trouble I guess.
picking the last of the tomatoes and squash. waiting on the chili peppers to turn red before I dry those.
puppies are growing like weeds. they are 12 weeks old and going to their new homes. have 3 of the 5 sold so still have 1 male and 1 female. they are so dang cute its kind of hard to see them go but go they must.IMG_2843.JPG IMG_2849.JPG IMG_2844.JPG IMG_2838.JPG marco is such a good and gentle daddy and katie is a patient mom.
youall take care and i'll check back in later.
