Some Pictures from Montana
Just playing around with pictures today. Haniya has informed me that she wants a turn on the Mac today, so she can play, too… These pictures are from when the kids were in Montana with my parents, after Jeff and I had already returned home. This was the day they were at the top of Logan Pass (Going-to-the-Sun Road) and there was a snowstorm!

He thinks it is pretty cool that the picture shows the propellers spinning. We think Mikah is cool.
Goat Hay Rack
I presented Jeff with two hay rack plans: one off the internet and one from the book, Natural Goat Care. But they were just ideas to get Jeff’s creative juices flowing. We figured we needed a hay rack, because otherwise the goats would eat their (expensive) alfalfa hay in a big bin in the center of the barn. Most of it would end up on the floor. After Jeff thought awhile, he decided to part ways from the plans and do it his own way.

Goats
Now that we’re moving into winter, have the goats into their final home, and are preparing ourselves for breeding, I thought I’d do an update post regarding the sweet loves who are now part of our family.
