Thank you all! We are trying to take a step back and figure out where we are headed.
I’m going to try to post the surprise that I keep alluding to...

A road trip was in the works for some time and with very little time to go down and come back, DH, DD1, and I made the trip to NC. We went to @Southern by choice and @Goat Whisperer!! It was so good to see GW and SBC’s DH again. It was beyond wonderful to meet SBC and Little Bit and several of the boys.
SBC and GW have become two of my best friends. They get me and understand what I go through on a daily basis on more levels than I can explain.
While there, DD1 got showmanship lessons from GW and Little Bit. Talk about learning from TWO of the best!!! She ate up all of the attention and absolutely loved learning. She took all of it so seriously.
We got to meet several significant goats! Ruby, Mariah, Ruth, Tiffany and many of their offspring. I also got to meet the wonderful Henry!
Now I’m sure y’all know that I didn’t drive down there without bringing some goats back...
Gotta tease you a little....
Okay...I think I’ll tell now...
Olaf AND Bluebelle came home with me!!!!!!
I also brought home Wrigley, a Princess buckling, 75% Lamancha 25%Nigerian. He’s out of Charlie if my memory is serving me right at the moment.
Tiny (Chrissy) and Aria (her name was Arpege there) are the other two does that we brought home, both Lamanchas.
Orion is the Lamancha buckling out of Raina (sire is Black Tie or Giorgio-spelling?? pending DNA.) Memphis is one of Prynne’s buckling out of Keigh, he’s a 50/50 Mini. Prince is a Clover buckling out of Keigh so Nigerian.
Talk about excited!!! I’ve missed the Blossom so Nubians were just the ticket. SBC was sad but I’m trying to keep them all spoiled. We have options to advance all of our breeds now!
We drove down after leaving super early on a Thur morning, visited for a bit, stayed at a hotel, left early the next morning to come home. SBC’s DH cooked us an awesome dinner too!
Posting this from my ipad. Will post pics from my phone ASAP.
Hoping to make it back down again sooner than later to visit more.
I can’t say thank you enough to SBC and GW for allowing us to add these wonderful goats to our herd!!!

Here comes the pic overload...
DD1 practicing showing Charlotte
Prince!
Prince thinks he’s funny!
Wrigley giving SBC kisses!
DD1 got milking lessons with the machine!
Blue!!! Couldn’t get near him but I sure wish that I could’ve wrapped in a huge LGD bear hug!
The ride home. Olaf was in the front section of the trailer and the babies rode in a large crate for their safety.
The three girls all rode in the back section of the trailer.
Girls got unloaded first. L to R: Bluebelle, Aria, Tiny
Babies waiting to get unloaded. Prince is sniffing my feet, Wrigley is over him and Orion is along the bottom of the pic.

Olaf
The kids spoil Olaf! He gets leaves frequently. They all also make it a point to give him attention every time they are outside.
Bluebelle is the favorite of all visitors.
Aria is DH’s favorite.
Tiny sneaks up beside me to make sure she gets her share of attention.

Lol! @Bruce we are moving more toward a Lamancha and Mini Lamancha herd. Nubians will always have their place and a few Nigerians that I’m attached to. I’ve already started placing a few Nigerians.
I just love the Lamancha and Nubian personality!!! So many people are in Nubians that I prefer to stick to my Lamanchas.
