Goats

OK I know we are as about as wierd as they come.  Well now we have goats!  Bruce has thought for a long time that having goats would be a fun thing to have.  Not necessarily to milk, just have.  Well we have decided they are too expensive to have just to feed, that we need to be getting something from them if we were ever going to get them.  Well one day I mention to one of my friends in town with goats about that.  She said she was leaving town and wondered if Bruce would milk her goats while she was gone. 

We both grew up with milk cows so when Bruce milked these goats and was done with 2 goats in 5 minutes he was pretty impressed.

Well next thing we know my friend said she wanted to get rid of her goats.  She was gone too much and things were changing in her life and she didn't want to mess with them.  She wondered if we wanted them.

So we are now goat owners.  It has been really good to have them, especially for the kids.  That was one of our biggest things when she asked if we wanted them is we knew it would be good for the kids. Bruce got everything ready in the barn for them so they have a happy home.  Now if we could just handle the taste of the milk!!  Bruce thought he liked it ok but not anymore.  Tylinn loves it.  Rhett will drink it.  The rest of us well not so much! I was just using it in baking and stuff.  We aren't milking them right now because they both are pregnant we think so it was time to dry them up.
