Just Kidding Around

A friend of ours has five-week-old pygmy goat kids, which we visited on Sunday. If you're unfamiliar with pygmy goats (which I was), they like to jump up and stand on high things. When they're small, a person's back makes just the right platform.

Pipsqueak couldn't wait to have a goat on her back.
Sweetie's broad, manly back had room for two. That IS NOT his best jacket. That's his gettin'-dirty jacket... perfect for muddy goat hooves.
Kids are like puppies and... well... kids. After a little play, they get tired and enjoy curling up in a lap for a little rest.

    Dude. Your rusticness is making me want to...I don't know, bake an apple pie or something. And I don't even LIKE apple pie!

    LOVE the goats!! My girls would have them if we had room!

    The birthday cake was amazing too, I wouldn't have been able to pull that one off!

    I.... LOVE.... GOATS!!!!! I would totally have some if my deed-restricted community wouldn't frown on them. Oh heck, they frown on ME--what's a couple of goats!
