Sparkling Lilly

Our sweet Lilly died on Monday night. She was one of the best and sweetest goat I have ever had.We got her in 2008 with her twin Lacey. Of the two, Lilly was smaller and more finely boned. She was also the most lovable!

Lilly was a lover, snuggler and picky eater. You have heard that goats eat anything, well, not Lilly! Her pallet extended to hay and grain. No carrots, cookies or veggies for that girl. Lilly was always the first one to the gate and would cry until she you gave her pets and snuggles.

Lilly graced us with one kid during her short life. Dawn Lilly was born last year and sold to a friend our near Sterling. We hope to continue her lines through her grandkids.

Lilly was an  second year freshener and an 8# a day milker. She could jump a 5 foot fence from a stand still and more than once would turn up on the front porch when she thought she needed more attention that she was receiving!

Her favorite game was playing 'tag' with R; he hated the game but she loved it! She would run and run, wait until he was just within reach and she would run again!

We will miss this little prankster and hope she is enjoying her life in Heaven with all of our kids.
