oh Christmas tree

The weather has been warm and windy, which on the one hand can be quite nice but even the little goat girls don't like to get their hair mussed.  Christmas is a quiet affair at My Happy Acres.  Everyone gets special treats.

Bits of apple, scratch, and a wee bit of salad with some fresh cranberries makes for happy chickies.

The goat girls were all gleefully dancing about their Christmas tree.  Of course for them the tree is less decoration and more supplementation to their already rich and varied diet.

This appears to be their favorite Christmas song:

Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree!
Thy leaves are so unchanging
Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree,
Thy leaves are so unchanging
With bright green leaves 
and cones to crunch
Our favorite snack and sometimes lunch
Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree,
Thy leaves are so unchanging!

Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree,
Such pleasure do you bring me!
Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree,
Such pleasure do you bring me!
For every year this Christmas tree,
Brings to us such joy and glee.
Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree,
Such pleasure do you bring me!

(with apologies, actual lyrics <here>)
