~ Happy Thanksgiving ~

 

From all of us, especially Lenny, who will never be joining us for Thanksgiving dinner. He is one of the family and we love him.

Thank you Lord for all you provide for us. We are truly blessed.

My New Duds!

Oh my gosh, look at me! I am beyond handsome now! Some of you might not know this, but I won the T-Shirt that Crumpet and the Goat Farmer, of Herron Hill Dairy, were giving away. Thank you Goat Farmer and Crumpet for my new duds! 

 

The fit is perfect!

 

Now everywhere I go and everyone I meet will know that "Crumpet is the Most Famous Goat in the World!"

 

The T-shirt is the same color as I am so that makes it a wonderful color. Thank you Goat Farmer. I know you were worried about the color but, as it turns out, it is the the perfect color for me and my shepherdess is quite partial to brown, even the drabbest of varieties.

 Family, friends, and acquaintances, if you want a T-Shirt to tell the world about Crumpet being The Most Famous Goat in the World or you want a T-shirt just because they are awesome, you can order one from the Goat Farmer right here:  http://www.herronhilldairy.com/goats/the-crumpet-project

 

The Rain Finally Came

 

Moldy's magic of whispering to the wind has not helped here, in California, and the rains have been absent much longer than normal. Perhaps we should have invited Moldy to come visit us for a while. Instead we whined about droughts and La Ninas. So when the rain finally came, earlier this week, the new babies were quite perplexed and didn't understand why water was falling from the sky, but they suffered through wearing coats and made up clever ways to pass the time indoors. Perhaps Moldy can come hang out with them sometime in the future and maybe Crumpet can tag along to visit PG.

"Look, Z, I can fly!"



 

"Does this coat make me look fat?"
 



 

2013 Show Season

 
      Our 2013 show season has officially come to a conclusion. It was a great year for our junior does. We are a fairly new herd so we did not have any senior does with our herd name, except Aubergine. Aubergine has moved to Mini-Ridge Top http://www.miniridgetop.com/index.html  along with her dam, Penstemon. She will most likely be in the show ring in 2014. She is stunning.
      All in all our juniors brought home ~ 15 First place wins, 7 Reserve Grand Champion wins, and 6 Grand Champion wins and that was with only 9 doelings. Yeah! Of course as all goat enthusiasts know the true test will come when these doelings freshen. I hope they will do as well, then.
