Sweet bebe!!! 😍🥹

The MOOTOWN train has reached its destination!! 🚂

I recently purchased an entire cow with a group of friends 🐄 Yesterday we collected, sorted and packed 200kg of beef cuts - it worked out to be about $12.50 / kg for everything from mince to roasts to eye fillet steaks! 😍😋🤑

It is difficult to believe, but I don't think you'd lie about something like that?! I thought it was a mamma with her kitty!! 😻😻 How old are they now?

Wow these look like tiny eyeballs!! 👁️👁️👁️

Introducing the latest addition to our whānau - Xanthe! She is a 12-week old guide dog puppy, who will live with us for about a year until she's ready to go to guide dog school 🦮 🎒

You got the hi tech walking sticks and everything!! 🔥🧓🏽

And each cat has TWO eyes!! 😵‍💫

I just got back from Kiwiburn on Monday! 🔥

Snuggle puddle!! 😻😻😻

They survived all alone for over a week!! I think they're kinda grateful for some decent kai and a rest, even if they aren't stoked about being cooped up and handled 😅

They now hang out in a little pen I constructed in our back yard while they recouperate 🦆🏡 We hope Karen and the Floofy siblings will return and accept Lil' Dook back into the whānau 🤞🏽 But if not, they can stay with us until they're well enough and big enough to safely go out on their own ❤️

Lil' Dook is the same size and gawkiness (growing in their adult feathers), and when we brought them home, they seemed to know the property and that the best escape is down the driveway 🤣

When we returned after 5 nights away, all of our usual local duck families had skidaddled (likely because of a local doggo who often gets loose and likes to chase ducks 😞), though we did walk down the stream and spotted Karen and her 2 Floofs again.

After about 5 minutes of chasing and herding, and with the help of three local children, and a helpfully trained rugby player, we managed to catch Lil' Dook and I brought them home.

Introducing Lil' Dook 🦆😎 I heard them peeping last night and went to see what was going on. They were RUNNING VERY FAST IN A STRAIGHT LINE away from a hungry seagull who was circling and swooping trying to eat Lil' Dook for tea!! 😰
