This week’s items for Ashley Sisk’s Scavenger Hunt Sunday are: breakfast, multi-colored, starts with the letter c, roll, and future.
Breakfast: It’s a good thing I had the weekend. I actually took the time to have a piece of toast with homemade strawberry rhubarb jam with my cup of coffee. Did I mention that I like canning jams, and I’d like to offer them for sale when I get my on-farm market?
Roll: I sometimes confuse people. They wonder why on earth I have a really cheap McDonald’s happy meal car just lying around on my floor, especially now that my son has moved out. I’ve even had some people pick it up for me.
Starts with the letter C: Here’s the explanation as to why I have that little car just lying about. The cats have a lot of fun with it.
Multi-colored: They also enjoy the rainbow pillow my mom made for them. She spoils them.
Future: The future of my goat herd is Fionn. He’s been busy this weekend, and we’ll have babies in June
It’s been a pretty good weekend here on the farm.
Linking to Scavenger Hunt Sunday, Weekly Top Shot, Macro Monday, Mosaic Monday and Homestead Barn Hop.

glad you explained the car.
Jan 06, 2013 @ 15:50:44
They love the car. They also have a turquoise rock that they love to play with too.
Jan 06, 2013 @ 16:55:47
I have to comment on your strawberry rhubarb jam….oh my such sweet memeories of my grandma. Thanks.
Jan 06, 2013 @ 17:08:46
It always amazes me how many of our memories revolve around food. Glad you stopped by.

That Fionn is such a handsome guy!
Jan 06, 2013 @ 18:19:07
He really is handsome and sweet! He’s such a good boy.
Jan 06, 2013 @ 18:47:17
Of course I love all the animal photos ~ Wonderful photography ~

Thanks so much. In the winter I tend to spend more time inside with the cats, so they get stuck being my models.
Jan 06, 2013 @ 19:19:03
Fionn is such a cute buck. Seriously.
Jan 06, 2013 @ 19:32:03
He really is adorable and sweet! I just love him to death.
Jan 06, 2013 @ 19:44:50
What lovely mosaics.your cats are adorable. I love cats. Have a nice week
Jan 06, 2013 @ 20:02:37
Thanks. I enjoy sharing my home with the cats.
Jan 06, 2013 @ 19:53:29
You have lovely shots and lovely pets. I most like the foot shot, so very cute!
Jan 06, 2013 @ 20:03:03
Thanks. I was surprised to see how many cracks he has in the pads since he spends almost all his time in the house.
Jan 06, 2013 @ 20:21:29
Your kitties are just so cute… do they play with the car? Thank you for sharing on Weekly Top Shot #64!
Jan 06, 2013 @ 20:27:46
They really do play with it, but I couldn’t get them wound up. Of course after I put the camera up, Snickers started batting it around.
Jan 06, 2013 @ 20:28:30
I like the way you tied together the “roll” and the “begins with C.” Fun! Visiting via Mosaic Monday
Jan 06, 2013 @ 20:30:24
I was really desperate for “roll” and it just seemed natural to try and get the cats to play with it. They do all the time anyhow.
Jan 07, 2013 @ 01:33:21
The cat sure did enjoyed playing with the red car. lol. Nice photos you got here.

I never know where I’m going to find that thing.
They do have fun with it.
Jan 07, 2013 @ 03:04:30
great shots!
most i like the color splash pic – just perfect!
Jan 07, 2013 @ 06:36:10
Thanks. Bob somehow seems to always be in those color splash shots!
Jan 07, 2013 @ 04:16:26
Love your cute kitties and Fionn is a handsome goat. Great shots! Have a happy week!
Jan 07, 2013 @ 06:36:26
Thanks. Fionn has grown into a handsome buck.
Jan 07, 2013 @ 07:08:19
You’ve done it again…gorgeous pictures! I absolutely love the close up of Snickers’ paw.
Jan 07, 2013 @ 07:54:43
Thanks. How are you enjoying your new camera?
Jan 07, 2013 @ 11:01:02
I’m loving it, and having so much fun! I just discovered continuous mode, and then realized I may need a speedlight for pictures inside the stable’s arena.
I’m practicing on the cats, OldWoman, and now, my brothers cats.
Jan 07, 2013 @ 11:13:47
I did finally get a speedlight. I’m still trying to figure out all the details with it. Of course, I like some of the lighting effects in the barn without the additional light. Glad to hear you are enjoying it!
Jan 07, 2013 @ 08:09:44
That Fionn is a sweet one- he looks pretty proud of himself! I leave weird stuff laying on the floor for my cat too. Only I usually end up stepping on/tripping over, and hurting myself…while the cat smirks/laughs catsterically at me.
Jan 07, 2013 @ 08:11:00
That’s funny. I have to say, these three are pretty good at not leaving them in the middle of the floor. It’s usually under the dining room table. I’m sure Fionn is in heaven. He’s the only boy in there and the girls have all been in love with him!
Jan 07, 2013 @ 08:42:54
I love the Wild Hunt!
Jan 07, 2013 @ 08:54:38
I was having a hard time getting the kitties to cooperate with my photo shoot. Except Snickers was quite willing to sleep on the pillow.
Jan 07, 2013 @ 10:07:19
since I love cats, I love images of them! yours show such sweet ones!
good news for the spring, right?
Jan 07, 2013 @ 10:36:56
Definitely will be good news for spring! I always get excited for our kidding season.
Jan 07, 2013 @ 10:17:06
Guess Fionn is a tired but happy guy! How long till you know how successful he’s been?
Jan 07, 2013 @ 10:37:19
If the girls don’t come back into heat in three weeks, I’ll know they’re bred. They will be due in June.
Jan 07, 2013 @ 11:02:44
Nice shots of Fionn!
Jan 07, 2013 @ 11:14:02
Thanks. He’s such a sweet boy!
Jan 07, 2013 @ 12:59:36
Love the kitties and their car! How sweet of your mom to make them their own pillow too! Hope Fionn got the job done over the weekend, he really is a handsome buck!
Jan 07, 2013 @ 13:01:20
I’m pleased with the way he’s grown up. He’s trying! I guess we’ll find out in three weeks.
Mom really is good to the animals.
Jan 07, 2013 @ 16:46:59
Todas lindas!beijos,chica
Jan 07, 2013 @ 17:30:49
Thanks. I think they’re awfully cute!
Jan 07, 2013 @ 17:10:59
Oh, my goodness….you love your kitties, too. Up until now all I have seen are the precious goats. Loved the mosaics. It was such fun looking at all the different views. genie
Jan 07, 2013 @ 17:31:39
The cats are my winter standby since that’s the slow time on the farm.
Jan 08, 2013 @ 10:57:37
I love the photos of your cats. That paw is so cute.
Jan 08, 2013 @ 11:48:41
I love cat paws with that fur between the pads.
