I know what you’re thinking.
“That picture is the most amazing picture I’ve ever seen!”
Listen up. I have a secret to share. It’s my very special secret to looking absolutely fabulous in every single photo. You are incredibly lucky that I have finally decided to spill.
My secret is….
GOATS.
That’s right, it’s ALL about the goats. It’s a simple fact that goats are glamorous. They can’t help it. Goats are, like, naturally beautiful what with their gorgeous goaties and faint dirt-like smells. And honestly, you won’t be glamorous until you take your next photo with a goat.
It’s enchanting.
It’s fabulous.
It’s goat glamorous.
Don’t believe me?
Just to prove how ONE goat can drastically change a picture from drab to fab,
I decided to take a BEFORE & AFTER picture.
These photos were taken within seconds of each other.
Clearly, the results are amazing.
And it doesn’t have to end at portraits and selfies.
Just think of all the possibilities in which a goat could make your photos look glamorous! Family pictures, Newborn pictures, Graduations, Family Reunions, Weddings, Funerals. Yes, even funerals. Goats can turn a sappy funeral into one glammed-up, mutha bash.
“But what if I don’t own a goat?”
There, there. Don’t feel sad. Some of us just don’t have goats, and that’s okay. But because I want you to look your best, I did some testing with other animals, and the results are in.
Dogs? No. Cats? No.
Cows?
ABSO-FRIGGIN’-LUTELY!
Shaye from The Elliott Homestead was gracious enough to do a Cow Glamour Shot. Because, cows.
Now, go forth and take your own
Goat (or Cow) Glamour Shot!
I don’t know about your Goat (or Cow) Glamour Shots, but Shaye & I are framing ours.
P.S. April Fool’s
DaNelle You are a hoooot!

Fact #1: That goat is adorable!
Fact #2: Ths is the first time I find a cow to be cute…
Fact #3: Both of you women are gorgeous! Your husbands are obviously lucky men!
Fact #4: This is great and you now have a new follower!
We had triplets pygmy goats yesterday in the early am. A couple of hours later I saw major movement in the belly. I called the vet and he said I needed to get a shot to induce labor. We went into labor and then out without a birth. The next day the triplets are fine as well as Momma. The kid is still moving inside. I have researched and I have only found one other case but no further information. The vet is closed. Help…
Wow, sorry I just saw this! I would definitely take to an emergency vet or the get some vet that’s on call. I would also try to reach in with a gloved hand and see if I could help coax him out. This is an extreme solution, but I’d do it if there were no other options:)
Dear DaNelle,
My best friend recently informed me that I “looked like shit”. It could be because I am down to 102 pounds (from 125) and am suffering from advanced lung disease and have no appetite. I think it’s because I don’t have a goat with me when she’s looking at me. What do you think?
Thanks,
Diane
Ps I am currently in Prescott traveling in a motor home. (Home is in Tampa, FL area). The heat here seems overwhelming, so how the hell do you survive the heat in Gilbert and how do you avoid your livestock turning into barbacoa?
I really hope you’re kidding, because this is hilarious! If you’re not kidding, then tell that friend of yours to lighten up:) And we keep lots of water around to keep our animals from burning to a crisp!
She was dead serious, but also intoxicated. She acted like she was delivering news of monumental importance. I’ve been eating a little better as a result and allowing myself decadent treats on a way more regular basis than in the past. When weight loss was a real challenge in the past, it’s hard to lighten up on the iron grip I had on not allowing myself caloric treats.
I’m now up by the Grand Canyon where the temperature is very comfy most of the time.
xoxoxo
Hilarious! I love it.
LOL… so funny DaNelle! You have the BEST sense of humor!
Two of my favorite bloggers ever- you ladies ROCK! Also, I now have another thing to list when I ask my husband when he’s getting the goat barn built so I can get two Nigerian Dwarf goats…”See honey- I’ll look beautiful!” Thanks so much- this made my day!
Aw, thanks so much Tracey! You just made my day!
Oh, DaNelle, you are so funny! Had to restrain myself to keep from snorting out my morning tea, guffawing, howling, and waking everybody else up with my laughter!
Very rarely do I actually “laugh out loud” at something I see online… but this totally did it for me! We share the same humor- maybe we’re related? Haha..thanks for the laugh!
Well NOW you tell me! All I have are chickens and ducks. I NEEEEEED goats because I, too, want to look fab and glam!
You (and Shaye) are awesome.
Thanks!
My daughter and I are rolling! WE LOVE IT!!!! And we own some especially glamorous goats, so we need to get snapping!
You are TOO funny…as usual. Thanks for a great AFD post!
Love it! Best April Fool’s I’ve seen this year 🙂
LOVE IT GIRL!!!!!!!! You’re hilarious!
Thanks Genevieve!
Shaye needs a before shot too! 🙂
I think you should make this a linkup for livestock glamor shots. 😉
Haha, totally!
LOL! This reminds me of my secret for how to look 16 in ANY photo you take, regardless of your actual age — HOLD A BUNNY.
Ha! I love this! Now I know why I only look good in pics with my farmies! 🙂
OMG! We are laughing so hard over here! This is amazing, haha! …now I Really wish I had a goat, lol!
And my husband and I are officially dying of laughter. This was the best thing to read this late at night XD
