Shadows cast and Dream stealers at Kensmyth Clay Meadow

I was always taught never to let go of your dreams no matter how many times jealous people tried to steal them away from you… sometimes you can predict events when people have to have secret meetings to hold you back…

never be held back and reach for the moon when the sunsets…

Halter training in full swing continues at Kensmyth, Clay Meadow

how to ensure that your Alpaca halter fits correctly is gentle care and attention… this is not correct as it is too low on the nose… as they are obligate breathers (obliged to breath through nose) and cannot breath through their mouths, the halters must be fitted correctly or they will panic… gentle handling at the outset ensure happy Alpaca

halters fitted correctly…

       

Happy Alpaca learning to enjoy walking on a halter…

     

Happy birthdays at Kensmyth, Clay Meadow

well thank you to everyone clients, friends, family for all your birthday wishes and gifts – we had a good time!

I especially loved the Ginger cake brought to me in the morning by a friend in the Village and trust me it was gone by teatime Yum…

and the loving card that my hubby bought me (until my sons pointed out it looked like “Wives” plural lol)

but I especially loved the animal themes for all the livestock we have on farm and the Wine cards too…

we had cards from all over the UK and numerous from abroad from clients too so Thank YOU.

April Fools day and hot temperatures and hot hair in the breeze

April has crept upon us – how did that happen, times flies by and days are longer meaning out later too – this weather is bliss. I said we would pay for it and apparently this week will turn back time to winter hail, rain, snow again!

But today on April Fools Day we had the elegant and beautiful… then Daisy due to the wind…

           

and I feel her pain because my hair is as wild as this in the wind LOL… she tries so hard to look beautiful too!
