I spent a lot of time this weekend getting ready for winter for the goats. While that’s necessary, it’s pretty boring, so you get some goat pictures for fun.
Minnie Pearl
I put tarps on the north door of the barn wall, where there’s a big door with lots of air that comes in.
Meg
I also shut one of the doors on the south and put a tarp on it.
Myson
That means there’s only two entrances/exits for the goats now.
Vinnie, Helen, and Myson
Sadly, there’s always one goat that likes to stand in the doorway and watch the snow fall, and the lower goats in the herd will have to sneak in.
Muffin
It will make it warmer though.
Millie
Marley was my helper during the winterizing.
Marley
He’s pretty much attached to me every time I’m out there. He’s such a big goofball, and not really much help.
Bob
As a bonus, here’s Bob, who seems to be my escort whenever I go out to pasture.

love your helpers and your monsters, too. 🙂
(your note made me smile today. yup, i like my animals naked. ha!)
Glad to know you got it. :-). I’ll try to do better next year.
Oh my! That Myson has a sweet face! I love these pictures. The snowflakes touch is very nice!
Myson is just too stinking cute and sweet. That’s why he’s still here. They are a part of WordPress, and they’ll be here till the first week of January.
Hi Teresa,
You’ve got plenty of blue skies.
Have a good Blue Monday.
It really was a beautiful weekend, especially Saturday for the blue skies!
i love all the names – Bob is my fav. ( :
i bet it is a lot of hard work. do you think the goats now winter is coming? they are super smart i bet… thanks for sharing.
They know. They are nearly running me over to get their grain in the evening.
Your goat pictures are always so nice and funny ! If I could I would keep a goat or two. Bob is a handsome cat, so cute !
Thanks, Gattina. They really are nice and funny creatures!
I do like the goats – but Bob wins the day!

Bob tends to steal the show. He’s got a lot of personality for a little guy.
Great photos………I just love the kids in your header!
Thanks. That’s a really old picture. I need to try and update it this next summer.
I love cats that follow you/me when out in the pasture. We have one like that…it’s like they think they’ve missed their calling as dogs, perhaps? 🙂
And he talks the entire time! Of course, when we go on a long walk, I end up carrying him half the time. Silly Bob.
great pics of your goats. Your cat looks like a ginger cat called “Brandy” that I once had. Happy wintering. I am joining you through Mosaic Monday.
Thanks, Jill. I think we’re finally ready for the cold temperatures that we’re supposed to get this weekend.
I bet you feel better now that the tarps in place…even if the job is a boring one. Marley and Bob were cheering you on, that’s why they like to spend time with you. 🙂
I do feel much better having that done. Marley and Bob are both just goofballs! They make me laugh.
Great pictures, really nice!
Thanks. We really had a beautiful weekend. I’m afraid it might be the last one for quite some time.
We need to do winterizing for our birds, adding some heat lamps, since we are due for some low temps today. How nice that some of the animals like to keep you company. I have a cat like that too. I haven’t lived with goats. My mom told stories of bucks liking to butt people who had bent over.;-)
My boys are really sweet, so I don’t worry about them. Of course, when they are in rut those hormones can cause problems. Hope your birds stay nice and warm.
Great helpers = Bob and Marley. Myson has grown into quite a handsome goat.
He really has. He’s still got a ways to go before getting as big as his daddy (Marley) though.
Beautiful pictures, I like the goats. Especially Myson is my absolute favorit..
Greetings from far and cold Germany 🙂
Myson is just a dear! Hope you stay warm!
Love those goats! But most of all I like the orange pussy cat… i have had three orange cats over the years… great collage. Thank you for sharing on Mandarin Orange Monday:)
My pleasure, and thanks for hosting. I do adore my orange Bob cat.
