Finally, Hillary brought baby Truman up to the barn! She's kept him waaaaaaay out in the pasture since he was born. Alan managed to get the two of them into the barn yard so we can be sure to keep an eye on both of them, and make sure they can get out of the weather. Having him in the barn yard means he's always on hand for photos! Yay! ...if only there were more time in my day.
Everyone was interested!
Pregnant Princess was interested... *Princess had better have a GIRL this year!* Alan said he needs to go tie pink bows on her belly...
Pregnant Queenie was interested...
Pregnant Dixie was interested...
and even CRAZY Boxcar Betty was interested!
Of course, they were probably more interested in the grain Hillary was getting more than baby Truman, but STILL!
Good times in the barn yard!
Oh, my goodness! I love coming here to see your animals. My spirits get lifted every single time! I do have to say that Boxcar Betty has the CRAZIEST eyes! She just looks so mischievous!!
Thank you for sharing.......your love for animals is so inspiring!

WOW! I think that this batch of "family" photos has hit a sweet spot. I can see it all now. Anna's Crafty, Stampin, Farm life Retreat and Photo Workshop and Spa! Oh and for all you Box Car Betty fans, She really is a hoot. But she lives to close to "Charlot's" web for Dad, I like to play with the torpedos in the pool. That is fun!Love, Dad

Truman is a cutie! I love all your animals and it's getting me to "think country" even though I live in the city. Here's a card inspired by your blog, Anna -

Truman is ADORABLE! They are all just too cute for words but my favorite photo (other than the Truman ones) is the one of Boxcar Betty.
Posted by: Michelle H in IL | April 28, 2009 at 05:14 PM
I so love ALL your photos! I enjoy your animals and the things you tell us about them. Bless you for sharing with us! Oh, yeah, love your cards, too. I started checking your blog for those and got sucked right in with all your farm goodies.!! I secretly covet, (not so secretly, now!!!) your rooster egg platter. That was the coolest ever. I'd love to know if that was an antique. Take care & Thanks.

That last picture of Truman is so stinking cute!!! His mouth looks so little.
I'm afraid of goats so I didn't look at her picture very closely. No offense to Crazy Boxcar Betty. :)
Seeing photos of your farm animals is such a treat!
Posted by: Tricia | April 28, 2009 at 04:28 PM

Truman is still as cute as can be! You have a way of making all your critters look good :) They sure look happy and healthy, too. With all those (PETS) will you ever run out of names?

What a sweet fuzzy face! He's really adorable and it's nice that you'll be able to watch him grow and change now that he and Mum are snug in the barn yard. Great photos.
Posted by: gailanne | April 27, 2009 at 10:51 PM
OMGoodness!! Hillary and Truman are GORGEOUS!! (they are horses, right?) Their eye makeup is perfect and the distress ink on them is amazing! :) I laughed so hard at the picture of CRAZY Boxcar Betty, what a hoot!
It's a very good thing you live far far away...I'd be at the fence just watching them for entertainment!
Posted by: Mary G. | April 27, 2009 at 10:30 PM
