Helpful Goats

It was another gorgeous day so we spent a bunch of time outside. The girls played, the dogs romped, Jon and I worked. I had the crappiest job though. I cleaned out stalls and the pasture. Nearly a winter's worth of crap. I have heard many complain of needing to clean up after their dogs now that Spring is here and all that snow-hidden poo has been revealed. Now imagine cleaning up after two dogs, four alpacas, two goats, and eleven chickens. Fun, right? Now picture having two adorable goats who love to "help." Tulip is fascinated by the pitch fork and likes to chew on it and jump on it. Today, she thought it would be nice to jump on me while I was working. I think she was just trying to help me lift the pitchfork but generally it provided the opposite result.

I also tried to fill in some of the trench but it was still too muddy!
