The Goat Farm!

My younger brother Brandon and his family have decided to start up a goat farm. The other day we went over because  Equis was in labor and we were hoping to watch the birth. She wasn't really doing anything so we left after spending the whole day there. I came home and bathed my kids and we ate dinner, then the phone call came and we all jumped in the van and drove back to there house...and missed watching Lucy be born. We were bummed, but glad we got to see her stumbling around trying to walk and Equis keeping her close and cleaning her up. It's amazing the instincts that mothers have even as animals. Here are a few pictures of our day there. It was lots of fun watching the kids play and loving on the goats.
