Beulah, our new dairy goat!

We would like for everyone to meet our new goat, Beulah! We got her from Sweet Grass Dairy in Thomasville.

This few are pictures from our visit to Sweet Grass Dairy to pick her out on Friday. On Monday, Tanner, the Little Boys and I picked her up and brought her home.

After a lovely afternoon at the May's home, we brought her home. She jumped the fence in the first 2 seconds. Thankfully, I had her tied also. But it tear up the fence.

Figuring she may be lonely after being moved from a herd situation, we let her stay on the porch.

Which eventually turned into the living room! We did put down a big tarp and keep her confined.

At 1 o'clock in the morning, she still was moving around, so put her back outside.

During the few short hours she was out there between 1 a.m. and her feeding, she knocked down her shelter, and tore up 2 more sections of fencing.

The fence is torn our other post if you can't see it.

So we set out to rebuild!

Paige, the boys and I put this together on the fly.

I nailed the plywood to the fence posts.

Then used some of the leftover PVC to attach the tarp to.

Then we pulled the tarp tight over the plywood and it became a shelter, which she likes, I think.

Beulah is expected to kid within the next month. So we'll have our own fresh milk to drink and make cheese and ice cream and other things. As we try to become for self-sufficient and less dependent on world's system, we learning a lot about our Heavenly Father. Both goats and chickens are mentioned in the Bible and are used to help describe our relationship with our Savior. We're so appreciative and humbled by the care the Lord is providing for our family. Beulah is very sweet, very pregnant and she was a very good deal!
