HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DEAR DARLA..........

Happy Birthday, dear Dar-la.........
Happy Birthday......
to youuuuuuuuuu!


Miss Darla Rose Caprine
 turned One Year Old on January 4, 2012.
Considering Farmer (fortuitously) found her, splayed and cold on the ground
with no birth mother in sight, and no one really though she'd make it, I'd
say she's looking pretty good!


Then, you know the rest.




We went all out for the party and spared no expense.
We hired a top notch decorating crew!


Darla got a brand new barn coat!  I think pink and white lace will be PERFECT
for this muddy weather we're having, don't you?



(mostly) Everyone joined in the fun and wore a hat!

Lizzie, of course.......


Miss Sadie



Little Girl, who is always being yelled at by her Maa to "be careful!"



Lizzie's Moo-ma, Red



And even Gypsy Killer Pony who said that he would come to the party
but he would kill us later.



Then we lined up to play Pin the Tail on the Cow



And Bob for Apples!



Everybody had a WONDERFUL time!

Happy, Happy Birthday my wee monkey......
I love you soooooo much!
xox  ~Maamaa
ps.  There was supposed to be apple cinnamon rice cake......
but you might want to ask Lizzie why there wasn't..............

Happy Birthday to a most spoiled goat!

I am sure Darla survived because of the clothes. Who wouldn't want to survive just to see what one would get to wear next? As for Lizzie, well, I didn't know they had Alpine cows. I guess you learn something new every day. Happy Birthday Darla!

My lady wants to know how in boy-howdy you got that hat on the killer pony? Tee hee.

Happy Birthday Dear Darla! She was very lucky when Farmer found her and gave her to you to raise as your very own. Lizzie's Moomaa is very pretty! I'd bet she's pleased to be part of the Mimi gang too! I wanna come to Darla's birthday next year! Weeee!

Mimi -- what a party! I think you enjoyed the party as much, or more, than the goats. -- barbara
