Let Me Introduce You

Let me introduce you to some of my family members- the four legged ones. Dad, Cousin William, Bub, Ray & Trip went to an animal auction in Cookvillle, TN last weekend. We have to rename most animal after they get back because William thinks its funny to name them after our family members.

This is Stevie. He looks like he is wearing sunglasses so he is named for Stevie Wonder. We got Stevie 2 years ago. We bottle fed him and he is very sweet. His best friend is a goat named Oliver that we also bottle fed. They sleep together and eat together. Stevie's real love is Wes.

This is Obama. He enjoyed following Heather around last night. He's very large and friendly.

This is Flossy and Sunshine. Flossy (brown & white) started the obsession with goats. She's the only one of any monetary value. Sunshine & her BFF, Spotty, lived at our lakehouse for many summers. No, they aren't pregnant, Dad just enjoys feeding them.

This is Snow. We have another horse named Bugar but they look just alike so you get the idea.

These cuties don't have names yet. They were recent purchases at the auction. They look like characters from a movie and are so sweet.

This is Tommy Tuberville. This rooster was in head of the farm so the name (was) appropriate. Dad brought a really ugly rooster back from the auction. His name is Bud (as in Bud Light Longneck- he has a really long neck). Strangely, my mother named. Tommy and Bud aren't getting along very well.

This little guy is 2 weeks old. He was born the day of the snowstorm. Wes and I call him Flaky because of the snow (and his father is grandfather). The rest of the family call him Beka McGhee because he was born after Rebeka Scoggins McGhee's wedding. Yes, Savannah is "giving him love" in the picture.

This post was getting really long so I left off some animals- 4 goats, 1 miniature mule, 1 miniature donkey, 1 pony, 2 turkeys, 2 peacocks, 4 guineas, 2 fantail pigeons, 5 regular pigeons, 4 chickens...
