Fairy Garden 2014

Our fairies love to play on the beach with our dog "Rocky" and our kitty "Trapper" and the alpaca.  A little inspirational incentives are scattered around. The lights are always on in the fairy castle.  Can you see the fairy hiding in the bushes watching the activities? 

 Our back yard.  This is an old shack from the hospital  I work at, that we converted to a chicken coup.   But I won't have anymore chickens (really!).  So I am thinking about new things to do with the "shack". 

 

We had a trench excavated around the east side of the house.  This dirt pile was left over.  I would like it gone, but it is still there.  The flags are positioned perfectly so my husband can see them from his chair in the living room.

 

Fun Day at Silver Dollar City!!!



Mowing on Sweet Grass ranch



At the MOPACA alpaca show in Kansas City.

"Jacob" with his

BLUE RIBBON!!

His fleece was appreciated and the judge said Jacob was the "total package" .

He has wonderful crimpy, thick, fine fleece.

The best thing is that he is white and his fleece can be spun and dyed into any color in the rainbow.

Whereas if you have brown fleece, you have brown yarn.

If you have black fleece, you have black yarn.

If you have gray fleece, you have gray yarn.

White fleece can be anything!!!



Halter training alpacas is like potty training a toddler. 
If they throw themselves on the ground and refuse to get up you pretend to smile and take a picture.

Sometimes I pretend to be organized. 

 Like when I stack. 

 

 

It is faux organization. 

 

Faux prepared.

 

Faux organized stack of trimmer string.

 

 

Faux organized stack of quilt squares that haven't yet been sewn

.

Can't think of a really good punch line for the end of this so make up your own on my

Faux organization??
