Rudolph the Red Nose Goat?
This is what I saw out my kitchen window this morning - we had a good dusting of snow during the night but the rising sun soon took the snow away.
The sun really travels fast especially when you are trying your best to capture images!
Do you see my sweet goats? In goat talk they are saying "here comes Mama with our treats!"

Thanks for your visit. I do hope you enjoyed my pictures. I feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful stamp picturing my babies Flip and Flop. You know I do appreciate your comments!!

Oh my gosh... what a fabulous view! I can see for miles out my kitchen window too but what I see is a checkerboard of grain fields, no trees and most definitely no mountains!
Wowsa to the cards... Flip and Flop are famous and do make fab cards, don't they. Love that cut-out work on the paper behind them.
Wonderful view Sandy, I would love to waken up to it each morning and Flip and Flop are just gorgeous. Are they a special breed of goat, I've never seen such long ears before?
Beautiful cards with their image, love the little bit of flower hanging from their mouth. Great design, specially that border.
Hope all is well with you and yours, hugs Kate x
I could do with some goats to help me manage the field at the back of our house and yours look gorgeous! I would like to think that we are unlikely to get snow before next winter but the weather here is so unpredictable, you just can't rule it out! Love your view. Hugs, Tracey x
Hi Sandy, love the photos, gorgeous views, and the stars are, of course, your beautiful goats - as photos and as cards. Great idea! Hugs,
Valerie
What a spectacular view Sandy. Thanks for sharing.
And HOW did you find such an appropriate goat stamp? Amazingly detailed and of course, it really tickles me that you've cleverly turned it into a Christmas image.
Thanks for sharing your cute Rudolph Day goats.
Hugs, Sarn xxx

You reside in a truly beautiful part of the world, Sandy! Flip and Flop are so darn cute....love your goats!!! When I think of the alleys in Chicago, I'm always so happy to live in the country surrounded by wilflife!
Your Christmas cards are simple yet so unique and stunning. Very creative
design and I just love the stamp.
Oh wow Sandy, your photos are amazing, what a stunning place to live!! (Even though I feel a bit sorry you are still having snow at this time of year.... - it certainly looks so beautiful though!)

Ok, first off....love the Christmas cards (perfect!). Secondly, I can't believe you are still seeing snow (though we are too, only our's is the neon-green-very-yucky-runny-nose-watery-eyes kind of snow..wanta trade? well, only for a little bit)
I love the picture of your goats Sandy, they are adorable. And a big WOW of the view, it is spectacular. If I look outside my window I only see houses LOL. I almost forgot to say that your Christmas cards are perfect. Great idea to use a goatimage, love it!! Hugs Sylvia
Lovely pictures! Nothing beats those NC mountains at ANY time of the year. Loved your baby goats too. How clever of you to transfer them into Christmas cards. Nice that you could do a card for each baby, and who would ever think to make a goat into a Christmas card. These are uniquely you, and so extremely cute. I am really liking the frontage that decorates each baby, and love that perforated background. TFS & Hugs.
Not sure which is cuter, the stamped goat or the real goat.
I would love to wake up to that gorgeous view every day Sandy, it's beautiful as are your cards, that goat stamp was a great find xx
WOW Sandy...What a view it's Beautiful...great pic of Flip & Flop awaiting their mama for treats...Your Christmas cards are Fantastic...Love the image...it's perfect!! so cute...Hugs May x x x
What an awesome view! Your cards are gorgeous too! That is a fab stamp. Flip and Flop would approve! xx
Wish I had that lovely view. That is a special treasure!
I think it is so wonderful that you found a stamp of your beloved Flip and Flop...What luck! Great cards.
Hi Sandy my my you are certainly very fortunate to have beautiful views like that - spectacular. Your pretty cards are fabulous just like Flip and Flop! Susan xx
Well, Mama did Flip and Flop proud with these gorgeous Christmas cards - how delightful are they! Flip and Flop have grown into two little beauties too.
How wonderful to have such a gorgeous view from your kitchen window Sandy, it is pretty spectacular! Hugs, Anne x
Are you sure that's the view from the kitchen? I could of sworn that was from the guest room where I'll be staying when I move in!! Geez, you have it rough lady. ;) LOL.
OH EM GEE...those precious faces are adorable and now they will grace the home's of your friends...couldn't be better! LOVE your early start to organization Sandy.

A view like yours is a dream vacation! Love the mountains and the trees. Flip and Flop have found a gorgeous home and they are also adorable. A goat Christmas card is so unique and also fabulous! Only you would find a stamp like that or you made it yourself. You're a clever lady!!
I woke up to 1 1/2 of snow this morning too. But I'm in PA.
Hugs, Cathy
Lovey cards ! I loved their CAS look specially !
I love your cards, so cute with the goat and the goat photos! They are adorable and wow have they grown!! I love the little flowers the goat has in its mouth on your card, so sweet. You live in such beauty lucky lady!
Love from miles across,
Kelly
LOVE your view Sandy! That's the best kind of snow to have! Gone as soon as the sun comes out. We're supposed to get some snow today.

Sandy, you live in such a beautiful part of the world. Thanks for sharing the view from your window. I had no idea you speak Goat! Love your stamp...
Oh my Sandy...now that's some view! What a way to start your day :D
Flip and Flop! Hilarious and so cute too. I would never imagine that you could purchase a goat stamp...its just perfect.
I'm not sure I could get into Christmas cards as Easter approaches though, but it is an idea because I always run out of time.
I hope you are enjoying your weekend xoxo
I love this card, darling image and such a fun background. Your talent is amazing...love the photos of the scenery and goats. They are so cute.
love your goats...I envy you :)

Perfect indeed Sandy! Adorable goats and stamp! Thanks for sharing your photos…wow…what a glorious, gorgeous place to live!
What stunning photos of the snow and the sunrise - and the Flip and Flop look to be thriving under your tender care. What a fabulous stamp, and it really works for a Christmas card - I've come over all "stable all forlorn" - ox and ass and goat included. Love the simple krafty look really letting the stamp shine.

Wow, the view from your kitchen window is amazing. It might be enough to encourage me to stay in the kitchen long enough to cook :-). Love your Christmas cards. Those tiny flowers on the stems are perfect.
What a wonderful Christmas cards and TY for sharing your babies Flip and Flop!! How fun and your cards are so cute and just that!!
Hiya Sandy, I love your goats and these are 2 awesome cards. Wow! So cute, hugs Sharon x
What a fabulous Christmas card and fabulous photos.
Hi Sandy. Just looking at your gorgeous photos while talking some time out of the sun.
Love your cards - such a fantastic image and a great way to use it.
Back to the sunbed-only got a few days left.

Hi Sandy
