EMMA as we call her, is a beautiful red doe with a white belt and frosted ears and nose. I thought I wouldn't be needing
any more does to add to my herd... Until I saw Emma! Star only gave us one doeling in 2008 so when I had an opportunity to
buy one of his daughters from another farm, I couldn't resist. Emma has lovely breed character and conformation. Her dam
is a great milker giving nearly 8 lbs (1 gallon) of milk a day. Her sire Star also comes from a line of great milkers, so
Emma should be a wonderful little milk goat. I really look forward to seeing her freshen in 2009! Thank you Andrea Kuhtz
for selling this wonderful little doe to me. Photos of Emma, Star and Dora courtesy of Andrea and Randy Kuhtz of Country
Dreams.

TRILLIUM - I have been waiting for this doeling forever! Her dam, Rosebud gave us twin bucks the last two years and I
have always wanted a buckskin MiniNubian. Now here she is! And what a doe! She has WONDERFUL conformation, with a smooth,
level top-line, strong feet and legs, tons of body capacity with a wide chest. She has nice breed character although her
ears could be little softer and wider. Trillium's dam, Rosebud, is a good milker with a very nice udder. Trillium's sire,
Grant, is a wonderful buck with great conformation and tons of milk in his background. I look forward to watching this little
doe mature.

SAPPHIRE is a beautiful doeling out of the first goats I purchased from Echo Hill's. She is absolutely beautiful! I
was mighty tempted to keep at least one of her triplet sisters as well, but restrained myself and just kept one of Molly and
Jasper's beautiful daughters. Sapphire is a very dairy doeling with strong feet and legs and lots of body capacity. Her
dam is our best milker giving about 7-8 lbs of milk each day and has given as much as 10# in one day! Molly has a lovely
udder and is super easy to milk. Jasper, Sapphire's sire, also comes from a line of great milkers and has given us many beautiful
kids. Sapphire will be a great asset to our herd.

SUMMER is another very nice doeling from '08 - and I got another buckskin with a white belt! Summer has VERY nice breed
character and is a real sweetheart. Her sire, Eureka, is out of Rosebud and sired by Jasper. Eureka had wonderful breed
character and sure passed it onto his babies. Summer's dam, Windy, is milking very well at about 6-7 lbs a day and is extremely
easy to milk. In 2007, Summer's maternal half-sister, Zephyr, took Jr. RGCH in the online goat show. I expect good things
from Summer as well.

Green Gables EHJ Amazing Grace
4th gen - AMERICAN
Sire: Echo Hill's Jasper *B (3rd gen)
ss: Echo Hill's Lord Apollo
sd: Hidden Creek's Easter Sunrise
Dam: Green Gables Milk N'Honey Raisin (3rd gen)
ds: Country Dreams Charlie Brown
dd: Green Gables CH Misty
DOB: 3/24/07
GRACE is our first 4th gen doeling. She has beautiful conformation like both her sire and dam. Her dam, Raisin, is milking
very well and has a very nice udder. I expect that Grace will stay pretty small as she is still very petite and her dam is
only 23 1/2" tall. Grace has pendulous ears. She is a gold roan with frosted ears and muzzle, tan trim and a partial
white belt. She is a very pretty little girl.
2007: Grace took Jr. Mini-Dairy GCH in the online goat show! Her granddam, Misty, took Sr. GCH! Grace's dam, Raisin
also did well in an online show in '05 taking 1st place in her class.
