Party Animals

Upon arrival to the barnyard yesterday morning,

I was treated to quite a surprise.

It seems that several of the animals were full of holiday cheer

and ready to party.

It was a fabulous party....with treats for one and all.

Of course I just had to take pictures to share with you.

Maryann was happy to wear the candy canes,

since Ginger had already chosen the mistletoe hat.

Anyone care to kiss the pig?

You may certainly join the celebration...

we have a few hats left!

Merry Christmas.....party on!

Construction update:

Last week it occurred to me that we needed a horse weathervane on our arena.

However, I had not ordered one.

Since construction was almost wrapped up, I figured it was too late to add this,

so I resigned myself to live without a weathervane.

Low and behold, look what appeared on the center cupola....

It appears that our builder is one step ahead of me!

YAY!!!

The outside is complete.

The gutters and downspouts are installed.

The water and electricity is finished.

As soon as the excavator finishes the footing,

we will be riding high and dry.

Now, that's something to celebrate!!
