Yesterday was like winning the lottery...only better

It was one thing for the saddle donkey of my dreams to be delivered right to my doorstep yesterday, but then you all came over to share in my excitement and wish us well. What a completely fabulous day. Thank you all for making it so special.

Needless to say, I didn't spend much time in the house. There was way too much to watch out at the barn.

Not sure what Hank was saying to Lucy here...

...but George did his best to eavesdrop.

Smooch wasn't quite sure what to make of Miss Lucy at first, but I've got some pictures to show you later in the week that might surprise you. Seems these two might really hit it off.

Alan and George literally could not take their eyes off Lucy.

Me, neither. 

When Lucy got a good glimpse of the porcine princess, it was enough to make her spit out her drink.

Lucy: What in heaven's name is that??

George: You don't want to know.

George used Lucy's shock and awe over Wynonna to his advantage and tried to steal a kiss.

About then, my neighbors stopped by to meet Lucy, who is not the least bit shy of strangers.

And then I asked my neighbor to take a picture.

So, yeah, it was a pretty awesome day. And for those of you who asked if I'd be sleeping in the barn to keep Lucy company on her first night, the answer is yes.
