They will haunt me in my sleep

Just a reminder about my giveaway.
It's good. Go HERE for more details.
It ends Friday night.

* * *

Back to our regularly scheduled programming.
I have more photos of animals from our trip to the pumpkin farm.

You remember the swollen-nanny goat and the goat that looked down on me
from yesterday's post, right?

Well, I did get some normal photos of normal looking animals...
and a few photos that will haunt me in my sleep.

Let's start with the normal.
A good ole Texas Longhorn, can't go wrong with that.



These goats look peaceful...they're on the ground (not up high) and don't look swollen...


And, look, a sheep!
It apparently couldn't decide which color it wanted to be,
but I like the color scheme.



Now, I don't know about you, but here's where things get a little weird.
This donkey looks a little shifty to me.
It's giving me a look.
Listen, I paid my bookie, I swear.



Good lord, what's going on here?!
That goat looks like it wants to eat the rooster.
I bet it'd taste like chicken...
get it?
taste like chicken!
hehehe
I crack myself up.



That rooster makes a nice photo, right?
I caught him making his cock-a-doodle-do noise.




A close up wouldn't hurt, right?
He's a little freaky up close...look at those beady eyes and that Mohawk.



Oh, good lord.
This is the shot that had me peeing in my pants.
The stuff of nightmares, people.



AHHHHH!!!!!


Ok, I can't leave the post with that thing staring at me.
Here are my sweet boys...


And a sweet, non-creepy animal in my bed, cuddling with my little one.

Ahh, that's much better.


I can move on now.

Today is the day for a big change!

The rooster closeup totally freaks me out. It may just haunt me. I'll have to make sure to make a nice chicken meal tonight.
Love the photo of your sweet kids, and can't wait to see how your hair turns out!

Suzann said...

The photo of your son and dog is priceless. I love it.

The Blonde Duck said...

I think the rooster is funny!

Justine said...

Aw, I love that last picture of the rooster! He's totally cute! This last pic of Remy kinda cracks me up though. Look at how close to Annie's butt he is! I hope she didn't rip one out!

Justine :o )

That gallo totally looks like he is 'bout to peck your brains out.

I love donkeys. (just thought you should know)

And goats.

Can't wait to see your hair!!!! You rock it, hip mama.

Twisted Fencepost said...

And the rooster.
That last rooster shot cracked me up!!!

sassy stephanie said...

That is a cool shot of the rooster. Love that Annie pic the most!

Jen said...

thank you ending on a non-scary animal note. That roster...
Good luck on the change, I can't wait to see it.

Unknown said...

Love the pic of Remy and Annie...so sweet! Hope she doesn't have gas, though....

Can't wait to see the change...maybe then I'd recognize you in Wally World, if I ever see you!!

Keys to the Magic Travel said...

Ooooo...I cannot wait to see the hair. Now...the picture of Annie and Remy is cute. But...they are in your bed. Still. Do you all cram in there?? :-)

Jennifer and Sandi said...

Great photo's!!!!! Love em all!!!

Mr. Rooster is kinda of shady looking isn't he. Mr. Goat would have probably loved to have dined on him.

Loved the photo of the rooster with the cocked head. Get it? HAHAHAHAHA. Heh. Wow that was bad. But I would totally frame that shot and give it to my weird brother for a gift, it's that awesome.

I must admit, I am now completely intrigued. All but three of your images were blocked by our pornography filter at work (along with your profile pic???). Guess I'll have to visit again when I get home. :)

Ha ha ha! Tastes like chicken ::snort::.

I love the last pic, awesome.

Katie said...

That sheep's color scheme looks like the stock market graphs lately.

Amy said...

You have GOT to enter the one of the rooster winking in SOME sort of photo contest! I would give it a 1st prize for sure! :D

Danyele Easterhaus said...

roosters are mean...and i hate them too! but that shoe of ur son and the doggie...tooo cute!!! and ur boys are just too much!

for a different kind of girl said...

Gah! The rooster looking directly at you is creepy! I might now be haunted! I'm just glad it's daylight right now!

Anonymous said...

Love ALL the animal pics! And your kids pic is cute as well! Good luck with the hair change--can't wait to see pics of it!

Karen said...

"Taste like chicken." oh that cracks me up. The multi colored sheep is an interesting thing to see.

Michelle said...

Can't wait to see the pictures of your hair! Are you nervous? I always get a little nervous just when I go for a trim... hey, you never know what can go wrong!

Denyse said...

oh, yes. That is the stuff nightmares are made of...

Britt said...

Goats and chickens freak me out .. it's all in the eyes. The goats have that lizard eye thing going on, and I can never tell where a chicken is looking.

Stuff of nightmares, indeed!

Love that sheep, though. And your boy cuddling with the dog .. so sweet!

Live.Love.Eat said...

Hah!! This last one is too sweet. But the rooster close-up is hilarious. He was trying to communicate with you.

Swirl Girl said...

That little head cocking shot was priceless indeed.

cocking on a cock? get it?

not as colorful as Hawaiin roosters, but still ...

Mind of MadMan said...

All I can say is that is a TON of shit in these pics and I would not want to be on either end.

Beth said...

That last rooster shot was totally PRICELESS. I flippin' love it.

And the puppy n the peanut....aawww!!!
They kinda have that Yin & Yang thing gonna on...almost...kinda....sorta.

Too much!

Unknown said...

That may haunt ME in my dreams tonight but thanks for ending your post with those gorgeous boys and Annie...dear, sweet, normal Annie!

Freaky rooster, shifty donkey and pink hair?

Think it could be the same one? With those shifty eyes, hummmm, could be?

Shannon said...

I do not care for fowl of any kind... but 'specially not roosters! OMGosh that pic is freaky!!! I'd have had a nightmare, too!

TerriRainer said...

LONGHORNS???????? Oh, we won't even go there! I'd rather talk about politics!!!!

Angie's Spot said...

That rooster close-up is mega creepy. But, that sheep pic is just hilarious. I've never seen markings like that on an animal. It's like they spliced 2 together.

Lapa37 said...

Great post to go along with some great pictures.

Carletta said...

Love the two-colored sheep and the rooster pics are awesome!

bobbie said...

every one of these pictures is great. But that last rooster one...!

Ramblings of a Villas Girl said...

I love them all. Call me weird, but the last rooster pic is my favorite.

i beati said...

ratmammy said...

i loved the sheep!!

Rose said...

I liked them all, especially the rooster. But that last one is absolutely priceless!

This Is My Blog - fishing guy said...

Rhea: The Texas Longhorns, let's see how the real ones from Austin do today.

Misty DawnS said...

OK - so here's the deal... that rooster should not be creeping you out, cuz he's WINKING at you... seriously - he thinks you're cute - he told me.

Oh, and, by the way, the breed of that sheep is a Dorper... aka one of my favorite sheep breeds - very calm and fantastic mothers, not fence breakers, generally have multiple births...Oh sorry, got a little carried away there. Can ya tell we used to have a sheep farm? Yeah, I REALLY miss my sheep.

Misty DawnS said...

P.S. HI Annie! I luvs you Annie!

Dar's Foto Faze said...
