Sad News

Hello,
Our update today is bad news. Our goat, Cocoa, has died. She was having problems breathing all morning and just lay there limp, moaning, for 2 or 3 hours. We found her in the shade, but we went ahead and cooled her off anyway with wet towels, but it did not help. We are clueless as to what caused her to die. Helen is so lonely now again. Cocoa loved Jennifer, and Jennifer took it the hardest, but she is ok now.

Also, Belle's head is swollen and we think she got bitten by a snake, but she is getting better and eating again. We are so happy that the swelling is going down,also.

That is it for now, and we hope to post again soon,

Been a long time

Hello! Wow...it has been a long time!

This morning we had blueberry pancakes for breakfast. We did our chores and then we had singing. After singing the Ante boys went to the Sustaires to pick up their new kitten, Milo. The Sustaires female cat, Meowbark, had a litter of four kittens, and the Antes got to pick one out to take home for mouse problems. Milo likes to chase the Antes dog, Taz if Taz messes with him.

Our longhorn cow, Lucia had a heifer calf we named Cholula. She is solid red and so small.

Our friends, the Bowmans came from Oklahoma to visit us, and the brought 3 nanny kid goats for us. Their names are Cocoa, Gertie and Winnie. We have Cocoa, the Antes own Gertie, and the Siffords own Winnie. Winnie has really short ears because she is part LaMancha. We think she is so silly. Helen Keller is enjoying Cocoa's company but does not like sharing the attention!

School is going well for al of us, Tracy is in 8th grade now and she has is just turned 14. Sarah is learning her letters. Jennifer and Robert are still in 4th grade, and have gone into 5th grade math!

Well, we are hoping to write again soon.
