Visiting the Animals ~

Welcome dear needlefolk friends ~

when was the last time YOU went to the Fair?

No matter how old I get...I still enjoy

going to the Fair just to visit all the animals!

Sharing with you today are the animals

I visited with at yesterday's Fair...

Just look at this sweet little face...she was my

Blue Ribbon Winner for sure!

She was so very friendly from 

the moment I saw her... 

When I walked up she was laying down, 

but quickly jumped to her feet to come over

and say hello to me!

I love Nubian Goats with their 

roman noises and long ears...

They have such natural happy looking faces!

Check out these next two goats...

Perfect timing...looks like the brown one is 

showing off his horns!

Another favorite is this sleeping Angora Goat...

Just by looking at her you can almost feel 

 the softness of her curly locks!

Yesterday was a pretty hot day 

and the animals were all well taken care of

with plenty of bedding and cool water...

Love the curly~q tail!

This fellow just finished rooting around in the sawdust...

Lots of flies...must be how they scratch themselves!

Caught this horse just starting to nod off...

Love how her chin is resting on the metal gate!

This gal is completely enjoying a little nap...

Lucky girl...she even has her own personal fan!

Moving on to the "Spotted Hares"...

So cute!

Each hare is spotted so differently...

No two are alike!

This one looks just like a chocolate Easter bunny...

Very sweet!

Even the ducks are resting...

Must have had a good day swimming!

You won't catch any animals sleeping in this barn...

Not with these blue ribbon rooster's competing 

with each other, this one is "First Premium"...look at

the scowl on his face!

But, this one is also First Premium...

This fellow looks exhausted!

Believe me, they were equally loud...I can see why

both of them won the Rooster Crowing competition! 

These fellows will have to keep practicing...

Better luck next year!

Whatsoever things are true, 

whatsoever things are honest, 

whatsoever things are just,

whatsoever things are pure,

whatsoever things are lovely,

whatsoever things are of good report;

if there be any virtue, 

and if there be any praise,

think on these things.
