Adventures of a Ranch Visit

Arlene and Bob had a ranch visit scheduled weeks in advance. Coming from Arizona on their trip through Utah and some of the parks here. We love visitors.
I was texting my two daughters early in the morning about very important things and I was late getting out there. I needed to clean up the "toilet" area. As I walked out there I saw my girls gathered around Odin (our livestock guardian dog) and a little wet bundle on the ground.
Enter the world, little Circle Cliff's Finnegan SirPrize!
As Arlene and Bob drove up, I hollered to them and asked them to please help me. This was not going to be any ordinary visit and it became quite a fun experience. Mama Jasmin wasn't going to submit to just anyone and Finn wasn't going to leave mama's side.
Arlene was able to hold a new-born alpaca (called a cria) while Bob really wanted me to name this little one "Bob."
What an adventure, and I did NOT charge them for their visit as I could not have successfully moved baby and mama into the nursery and accomplished everything necessary without their help.
Who knows what may happen when you are here for your visit. Sometimes it's just magical how things turn out!
