Nice weather fun!
















Heidi looking stunning out in the green grass















Jazz getting a drink from the creek after she ate her breakfast- Now we know why their water isn't disappearing. Phoenix, Jasmine and Bo's fly masks went on. Jazz's is more for fly control to keep them out of her eye so it doesn't get inflammed again, Phoenix because he's old and deserves everything he can get. Bo's is to keep his eye from running, I just want to be cautious with his.



Little Bo with his fly mask, let's see if he keeps it on. His little legs look to be straightening some. I might ask Micheal about slightly trimming them to help correct them next time Micheal is around.


I had the Velveteen Lop babies outside on my fleece vest and got a few cute pictures of them, their ears are soooo big now.




Today was gorgeous, the weather was great. Had way more to do than I had time to do, but tomorrows another day. I'm liking this new work schedule in some ways. the days off are awesome.

Oddball- Camera was out day
















Josie basking in some sunlight, I was just out playing with the camera.

















He kind of looks Dead, doesn't he?




More nappy time pictures. Heidi and Phoenix were laying down the same morning thankfully far enough apart to get a few good pictures.




*I am sleepy Mommy, leave me alone!*







This one is older than the others, but the buddies are laying down together. Buddies for the time anyway.

Still slow
















This is little Lindsay, I'm hoping for a good showing with her at Louisville in April
The picture was for showing her body type, it's going to an online Rabbit forum as well.
She's just a purdy little girl
















This is Mimzy, she's my second biggest hope for the show, she's not as nice as Lindsay and I've got to get her coat into condition.























Sundown munching the alfalfa leaves from the Rabbit hay, it was just going to fall through the cage wire so I figured the Mini's would adore it.



















Sundown let Arizona munch on it with her a little bit.

















Bo trying to get his lips in there to get some. Eventually I did push Sundown, Arizona and then Bo off so Josie could get some too.
All in all, not super exciting. Sold the baby bunnies today, along with one senior doe, Neena. All four are in a loving home with Samantha at Greenstar Rabbitry http://greenstar-rabbitry.webs.com/ They're the start of Sam's Dutch warren. I'm hoping that Neena does have babies, she was bred to Sam last week, for Sam so she can get some nice babies to show.
I am having a little help for getting myself into trouble, looking at Aussie's. I do miss my doggie, and one day I will get an Aussie. ALso looking at horses. A couple of us horsie-girls off looking at a young horse next weekend. Pictures will come!!

Nice Weather!!!

















A Cutie picture of Piper, she was being cute and wanted her belly rubbed after a gorgeous day.




















I first started my GORGEOUS day with putting the bridle on Bo so he can keep getting used to it and I could get it fitted correctly. He wasn't bad, but still a little ways away from ground driving.






















Bo later, I took his halter off to see if the rubbing will go, it's from his runny eye that got under his halter. He'll be fine, I might get him a horse collar (Like a large dog collar), So he has something on.




















Heidi-before- she laid down for her nap. She's in one of the only snowy spots left in the feild/yard and it's not even that snowy anyway now. The sun was out almost all day.

























Jazz dozing in the sunlight. I took their blankets all off because it was in the 50's. She's gaining weight too! It's only been 2 weeks on the Weight Builder. Might still go over to the Rice Bran Oil after this container of Weight Builder.




















Mr. Chubby Phoenix! He's been eating good I guess. It's a shame I can't get him out into the other feild for a few trail rides, too many cows over there. I don't need him whigging out on me and shaking like a leaf in a hurricane when he sees them.

Playing in the Good Weather


Here's just the horses!

















Jazz lost a ton of weight-as usual- and now is wearing a second blanket as you can tell! Hopefully she'll gain some more back before spring.




















Just looking for grass to eat.


















Heidi munching while Phoenix naps nearby, he can't leave his girl.





















Goofing around with Bo. I had to scratch his lip to get him to hold still long enough to take the picture. Hopefully he'll take a harness without much problem.





















Sundown basking in the sunlight as well. She was just glowing, the picture didn't do that justice but at least they got some good sunshine in before the snow that is coming down now.




Here's a picture from the property while I was walking around checking things out with dad again today. It was a little water fall way back, the water was shallow enough that carefully I could get back there without my rubber boots, which are with my horse grain.
More pictures are on Dad's blog, and I have more of inside half the barn where the bunnies, grain and tack are going.

Random update


This picture is more for Rachel and Cin to see. My bed, I actually made it look pretty. Usually I don't bother, but Rae- Snowy is in good company with Skipy(The puppy on the far end), and Taylor(bunny in the middle)















It had snowed long time ago and the girls all came out to play. They were excited to play in the snow and run around.



















Bo kept looking at me once I got him to go eat. I tried to get a good picture of him next to Josie, he's soo much shorter than Josie. He kept looking at me as if to ask me why was I taking pictures of his butt, but that's the only good angle I could get tucked up inside the mini's barn away from the wind. That and he has such a pretty tail, I love the shading in it.






















Dracaena and the Cyclamen plants that I have in my room. The Dracaena is the pinkish grass like plant, the Cyclamen is the flowering one. I have to stop going into the garden section of Walmart. Keep finding odd plants that look pretty so I get them. No Orchids for me, those are mom's flowers.




















The Amaryllis bulb finally flowered, three flowers out of one shoot/pod. I was hoping for a pinkish one, but the reddish one is still pretty.



















A Hawk I came across one day heading for home. Not sure what kind. At first I was thinking Red tailed hawk female but I showed the picture to dad and he said the markings aren't right for a red tail. Hmm. I'll have to look this one up.
