Meet the Critters

Often referred to as "our other kids" or "the zoo"...  This little guy is our Alpine goat "Christmas" who arrived in the barn on Christmas morning via the magic of Santa...
The man in charge "Apollo" our chocolate lab-springer spaniel who patrols the yard,
keeps the deer and other unwanteds out of my veggie garden, 
and generally makes sure everyone is where they are supposed to be. 
The new guy "Topper" - my beautiful Morgan-Arab cross gelding. 
We are having a lot of fun getting to know each other.

 Best cat ever "Marble" who keeps the mice and mole population under control and has so patiently tolerated the kids learning how to properly pick up and carry a cat...
 Don't let the angle fool you - this guy is not as big as he would like to be - miniature pony "Earl".
 And the sweetest little girl "Artemis" full sister to Apollo and best babysitter.
