Barn Helper

Peyton came over last night and was helping in the barn. She has SOOOO much fun in the baby pens. Realize that she has always been scared of the animals, so this is a major step.

In this picture, Peyton had "locked" the gate back. If you are familiar with type of latch and goats then you know that as they get older they are very adept at opening these latches so you have to keep something in the little hole underneath to prevent escape. Peyton understood the concept, but just not quite where to put the hook. Notice the hook is hung over the top of the latch.


Helping Nanya bottle feed a new baby goat.

Carrying feed to the bucks.

Doing Nanya's dishes in the milk barn. Notice the very durable yet stylish muck boots (just like Nanya's).

More dishes.

She had so much fun and so did I just watching her. I can't wait till she comes back to help again. And yes, she did get paid for helping. :)
