Goat Thing of the Day: Photobombing, Falling Freddy and an Old Timey Video

From the blog called Life on a Southern Farm

Did you catch the photo bomber in the background?

Meanwhile on the literary front, have you heard of the children’s book called Falling Freddy the Fainting Goat? No I’m not kidding. Illustrated by the cousin of fellow blogger, Adrian (of Adrian’s Crazy Life).

    I just came by to visit after your nice comment on my blog.
    I am so happy you like the picture and have it here!
    The goat is Happy who is Miracle Eve's sister. (Miracle Eve is my very spoiled bottle baby goat that just refused to give up that bottle).

    Thanks for the visit and comment.
    Have a great weekend.

    The goats in that video look pretty buff. Was that a little kid/goat gang? So funny.

    And they're off! Nothing like a little goat race for Memorial Day!

    As a goat I am appalled at that video.

    As to the first photo I love Miracle Eve and I did not notice the other goat sneaking in - she must be somehow related to Abby.

    that first picture is hilarious. And I can't wait for the sequel of that book: Connie the epileptic cow

    That video is pure gold. I have a friend who's a horse trainer (jumpers) and she taught her kids to ride and jump goats over small fences before they were ready for ponies.

    “Maybe it isn't so bad to be a fainting goat!”

    HAHAHAHAHA!

    So they finally wrote a book about the fainting goats. I guess the message kids will learn is that it's OK to be different. And it's more than OK to pretend you're a fainting goat and accidentally bump your head on the monkey bars and get a concussion.

    Okay, I just cannot believe somebody wrote a fainting goat book. MOL! (For you non-cats, that stands for Meowing Out Loud.)

    That is a great video.

    I feel sorry for those goats who have people on TOP of them… that can NOT be good! But that really is a neat video - I love old things like that.

    My boys have shown me videos of fainting goats. Those poor guys, simply trying to hang out, and then some dumb human comes to scare them simply so they will faint LOL! They are really funny to watch though, I have to admit. I think people should do that. Any time we feel stress, we would just fall to the ground and freeze. GREAT idea!

    Those poor goats! What were people thinking? It's almost like the movie “Men Who Stare At Goats”. Poor goat got stared at and fell over dead. (Or maybe not dead.) Riding goats is just not the thing to do boys and girls.

    Okay - photobombing goats are awesome. Thanks for the smile!

    Loved the movie and how the girls' goats stopped and the other carts had to go around them… got a giggle out of that.
