Goats! God’s got a GREAT Sense of Humor!

May19

Goats are disgusting. I really do not like goats… I have hated goats in fact most of my life! I mean, they are dirty, stinky disgusting creatures that will eat anything!  And their eyes? have you seen a goats eyes???  EVIL!! Yuck!! There’s a reason that they use a goat to represent evil!!  They sure look it!!  But God has a great sense of humor, or is that irony? maybe payback for dissing his creation?  I don’t know… but my Vienna loves goats.  I mean, she LOVES goats! 

Two weeks ago my mom and I took her out to Bauman Farms, a nice local place to go out and get fruit and veggies and plants of all sorts.  They also have a really nice play ground for kids and then a variety of animals for the kids to see, and feed.  They have a cow, a big sheep, some llama’s, roosters, guinea hens, chickens, an old white pony, and of course… lots of goats.  Vienna was facinated!  She was so excited to see the goats, that I actually purchased a hand full of feed (for a quarter) and let her feed the goats.  So here I am, helping my daughter feed my most despised animal! And, for the last two full weeks all we’ve heard is “goooaats, baby goats!”.  Today she begged me to go back out to see the goats… running around the house calling “oh baby goooaatsss” soo cute, how can a mom say no!?!?!  So off we went, we called up Mimi to help us so that I could get some photo’s this time (i forgot my camera last time) Here’s what we did today :)

We started feeding the Pygmy’s but then…

SWARM SWARM

Who knew feeding goats could bring such joy?


Mimi taught Vienna how to feed them with a flat/open hand so they wouldn’t bit her fingers :)   Good Job Mimi!

She’s a country girl in a city world :) Sooo cute!!


The end, we hope you enjoyed the show :)
