ANIMAL FARM...

Foxes, possum, armadillo, and now raccoon...

Quite the variety!

Good Morning!

Well, after our fun river adventure last weekend when my phone got dunked in the water, it was a stressful few days getting back up and running. We are now good to go and you can expect new pictures and posts again real soon.

BROODY!!!

Hard to see, but in the photo is our last remaining chicken... The only reason she is still alive is that she went broody, and hasn't left the coop in over a week...

We named her Broody Huckstable...

HERE KITTY KITTY!

There have been some pretty big lessons for Juliet in the past 2 weeks...

When the chickens died, we taught her that everything dies eventually...

When our baby goat Luke died, she learned that even the ones we don't want to die still do...

This morning, we caught Mrs. O'Possum... While we were looking at her through the window, we finally saw the chicken killer, a Red Fox! After taking a few quick shots at it, (it saw me as soon as I went outside), Juliet and I had a talk about "The Circle of Life".

We don't do it to be mean... But sometimes it has to be done anyways...

Mrs. O'Possum said goodbye shortly after Juliet went down for her nap...

We are still on the lookout for Red Fox, and are reseting our traps and bait...

Life here isn't always pretty!

A QUIET MOMENT...

Here's Cristy relaxing on the couch, surrounded by two snugly pets...

Athena, in front of the couch, laying on her back so Cristy can scratch her belly; and Kisa on the back of the couch, legs draped over the side...

WHAT IS THAT?!?!

Athena's reaction when she heard Cristy making the dogs their treat...
