The 21st and 22nd babies born this year.
Back in September I took my doe, Harley, to my friend's house to breed with her paint buck (traditional Boer Goats only have red on their heads - a "paint" boer goat has spots of red on it's body too). Well Harley finally gave birth on February 28th to these two sweet little girls. The one in back is traditionally colored, except for a spot of red on her tummy, which you can't usually see. The one in front has great color though, and the fur above each hoof is red... it looks like she's wearing little shoes! I want to give her a name that has something to do with shoes, but all I've come up with so far is "Ruby Slippers" (like from the Wizard of Oz). I'd just call her "Ruby" around here. If someone can come up with a better name, please let me know!
The ruby slippers are the shoes worn by Dorothy (played by Judy Garland) in the 1939 MGM movie The Wizard of Oz. Because of their iconic stature,[1] they are now among the most treasured and valuable of film memorabilia.[2] As was customary for important props, a number of pairs were made for the film, though no one knows exactly how many. Five pairs are known to have survived; one of these was stolen in 2005 and never recovered.
In L. Frank Baum's original novel, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Dorothy wore Silver Shoes. The movie's creators changed them to ruby to take advantage of the new Technicolor film process.[1]
Thelma swore she would never use the blow dryer again.

A pair of "ruby slippers" worn by Judy Garland in the 1939 film, "The Wizard of Oz."
The slippers were designed by Adrian (aka Gilbert Adrian), MGM's chief costume designer. Adrian originally designed shoes with an Arabian look and heavy red beads to imitate rubies. When producers felt this was inappropriate for a Kansas farm girl, Adrian designed a more sedate pair of shoes (using 2,300 red sequins for each shoe). Butterfly-shaped red leather bows covered in red sequins were added to each shoe just two weeks before shooting.
At least six and possibly seven pairs of shoes were made. The ruby slipper were probably manufactured in-house at MGM. The shoes are white silk pumps from the Innes Shoe Company in Los Angeles. The shoes were dyed red. Burgundy-colored organza (a sheer silk fabric) overlays were then sewn to the upper and the heel. The sequins were darker than those used today, because bright red sequins would have appeared orange on film stock of that era. A large rectangular red glass jewel was placed on each flute of the bow, with another put on the knot itself. Dark-red bugle beads were sewn to the bows, and the bows outlined in red glass rhinestones in silver settings. The bow itself was made of red strap leather.
Three pairs of the slippers had orange felt glued to their soles to deaden noise.
Little actual documentation exists about which pair of shoes Garland wore, and when. She probably used only a single pair during filming, wearing replacement shoes as the main ones lost sequins or had to be repaired. If this is true, then the pair at the Smithsonian Institution is this pair.

Almond Milk, my moho hair (custom made by Poupée Mécanique Leo and a tiny bit by me) is modeling Dorothy Gale outfit from Wizard of Oz. I am dubbing this Malibu Dorothy because of Almond's complexion.;)
Dress, hair bows, socks and shoes in the set. The shoes are made by JemGirl.
I am going to bring four of these to Seattle.
I had a unique opportunity to spend several days at the 2008 Tennessee State Fair. There was so much to see, it will take 100 images to get it all in.
Contestant #208 was a show stealer at the Fairest of the Fair talent show. She's dressed as Dorothy while singing "Somewhere over the Rainbow." A judge told me later that she was the grand prize winner.

Ruby slippers capped my St. Patrick's day look. I also had a green shirt on - with a picture of the Wicked Witch of the West which said 'Go Green' (link here. I figured that if I'm going to celebrate the removal of the pagans from Ireland the least I could do was witch it up a bit to try to atone for my betrayal.
