Normal weekend at Ryans'

Well we have made it through Thanksgiving and are now working on getting ready for our Nativity on the 6th. Everyone needs a good grooming and the trailer is going in to have some inserts put in to make it nice and comfy for the animals.

Lexee (our female Boxer that is due on January 8th) decided to get into something dead. Yep, judging from the smell had been dead awhile. She then had an allergic reaction and broke out in whelts all over her body. This is her normal picture. Now put Frankenstein eyebrows on her. Since she is pregnant we have to watch what she is given in the way of medication, so she gets half doses of Benadryl and now resembles a miniature version of Frankensteins bride.

We normally get our Christmas tree this weekend. I am thinking we will wait a week or two now that we have four inside cats. Two are rescues that were babies when brought home and now are 1/2 grown. They will have a jolly time disecting the tree I fear. Anything on shelves or window sills are fair game to Wuver and Skidders.

Winter is Here !

Well I guess the inevitable has happened........old man winter is putting his stamp on us. I am not ready for this yet but I guess my opinion does not matter to Mother Nature. Ted is holed up in the barn. Since he is an outcast and does not fit in with the other goats he has the run of the barn and also runs with the dogs in the yard when they are out. When I called the dogs in the other day he tried to get into the house with them. So we had to have a little talk about how goats are really farm animals and need to stay in the barn and not the house. He was very good natured about it and bounded out to the barn with me wagging his tail all of the way.

Ted loves to be picked up and hugged. He will lay his head on your shoulder. But I have to say he is pushing 50+ pounds. Getting a little harder !!

Crocheted Rugs

Here is a picture of one of the rugs that I made. This one is made from llama fiber. I also make them from sheep wool and mohair in all colors !! I do demonstrations on how to make these and also offer them for sale. Completely washable and lay flat to dry.
