Lovely Llama Ladies

With their dark hair, it is difficult to capture the beauty of these girls. I see it every day, but getting it on film to share with you has been challenging.

Their big, beautiful eyes are incredibly expressive. Aibileen is an absolute sweetheart.

Minnie, aside from being gorgeous, is interesting. She came from a 7000-acre survival-of-the-fittest ranch so her social skills are not as refined as the other girls. The sheep are pretty much terrified of her. I think the poor thing is just misunderstood.

Christine - Aibileen is beautiful ! Your picture of her captured her eyes as though I was standing there... And... Can't we all relate to Minnie ? LOL...

Thanks for sharing -- I always get a special feeling when reading your blog.

With those eyes, don't you think you should have named her Mabelline? Lol. She's definitely gorgeous.

Oh for PETE'S sake! Abilene's eyes are so incredibly huge and gorgeous, I can hardly stand it!!
Seriously, Christine, they are both beautiful beyond words.

We raise lots of critters on our farm, but not llamas. Wouldn't you know, my little girl loves llamas!! I will be stopping by here again tomorrow (when she is awake) to show her these great photos! Thanks.
