Field Trip!! MT Alpacas

Let's pet some alpacas!

Turns out, they like to touch noses...

And eat treats

"Mom, it tickles!"

Walking with Pop-pop

We took a short field trip out to the Alpacas of MT farm. Nana and Pop-pop were visiting so they came along as well! We learned all about the history of the breed and what their fleece is used for. We also got to feed the alpacas, pet some babies and hear stories about them.
On the farm they have a couple llamas to protect the herd as well as 2 very large guard dogs. These dogs fought off cougars and bears this summer! The llamas are just as impressive as they will take down strange dogs, coyotes or any other perceived threat.
We had a great time learning something new!
Thanks for Alpacas of MT for allowing us to come to their farm and to Little Explorer Tours from the Parks & Rec Dept in Bozeman for setting up these field trips!
Next week we will be going to Summit Aviation to learning all about airplanes and the world of flight.

Princess 2nd Birthday

3 days old

Princess turned 2 on Monday; we celebrated with family and friends and a giant chocolate cake that she picked out! It was a beautiful fallish afternoon, perfect for a party.
A few pics to remember what a sweet blessing she is...
