I haven't been on much the past couple weeks, been really busy, planning mostly

Gotta keep it a secret to keep it a surprise. I haven't told Stacey, Jacque, Katherine(well I did tell her but not really or from who) Brenna, Chelsey or even my cousin Bri.

Ya ready?

I got my new LaMancha herdsire!!!!!!!!!!

I was cruising through sites and even though I couldn't get my Altrece kids(they are coming in '09 still) I was still in the market for another buck. I've always admired the Fir Meadow herd and when I saw she had a buck I liked, well you know :wink: His mom is a first freshener and I wouldn't normally buy one from a FF but she is special, she has a ton of potential.

Dad and I picked him up from O'Hare yesterday, we had to wait 4 hours for him since his flight was delayed. His name is Fir Meadow Tobv Yogi, you can see Kat's other goats here: http://lamanchas.tripod.com He is so sweet and calm and he sets up like a dream!!

Here he is!!

And here is his pedigree broken down:
