If family posts bore you, you may want to skip my next few posts.
Although there are lots of animals included, I have SO many pictures of Katie and Carter's visit that some might not appreciate it.
So, I'm breaking the photos up into activities.
Today's post ~ which just happens to be the
"Farm Friend's Friday" post, features Katie and Carter doing MY chores for me!
(what a TREAT!)
Carter, accompanied by Sable, who absolutely fell in love with him, carried the water out to the Piggles first...
He quickly made friends with Holly & Ivy
Katie fed the Piggles while Sable supervised.
Unfortunately, we were a little worried about Ivy as she started choking pretty badly. Katie picked up Ivy's bowl of feed so that Holly wouldn't eat it all.
While Ivy recuperated, we decided it was time to introduce Carter to the sheep.
I was amazed that Alice was the first one to walk up to Carter!
She is usually quite reserved with strangers
and doesn't think a whole lot of Sable either!
But, apparently Carter was OK.
So, he and Katie, set off to feed the flock.
Notice our big, strong, Navy Seal armed himself with Animal Crackers!
;-)
Katie might have had a few stuffed into her pockets as well...
Dazzle might have been just a tad over enthusiastic in her greeting.
(it's YOUR fault, Katie W.)
Dream had to explain to Carter that he should never touch a ram's forehead.
And was displeased when he didn't appear to listen to her!
This is what the photo looks like, after a sheep nuzzles the camera lens.
"OK. Carter passes inspection. Now how about some dinner???"
Carter's on it, Dreamer!
Notice Dream making sure it's done right!
"Good Job, Carter! "
Now it's back to check on Ivy...
.
Katie puts Ivy's dish back down, now that she's feeling better.
and tries to keep Holly from stealing Ivy's food.
It was a bit of an American Guinea Hog rodeo for a while there.

DREAM says...
"Thanks for helping Mom out when she wasn't feeling well, Katie & Carter"
She sure does love you BOTH..."
