The day began with a sunrise so beautiful it stopped me in my tracks - golden skies, soft light, and alpacas grazing peacefully.✨😌
Later, the farm transformed into a festive wonderland: I dressed as Mrs Claus, Michael as our trusty Chief Elf, and the alpacas became our
"reindeer" helpers.🦙🦙
We're putting the finishing touches on Anvil Alpacas' Mrs Claus Workshop experience — and the Christmas magic is already in the air 🎄🦙❤️

✨🤩A Special First for Sassy & Liv

This week has been truly heartwarming here at Anvil Alpacas . Our two beautiful new alpacas, Sassy and Liv, took part in their very first experience - and they were simply amazing.
With calm, gentle hearts, they sat down and allowed the children to cuddle and sit beside them, creating quiet, magical moments of connection. Watching the joy on everyone's faces was something we'll never forget.
To finish, Sassy and Liv proudly led the way around our little Halloween trail, showing just how trusting and wonderful they already are.❤️🎉🦙🦙

Two new hearts just joined the herd today ..
Sassy, the tiny, wide-eyed girl with a spark of mischief in every step, has already stolen the spotlight. Don’t let her size fool you—she’s got personality for days, prancing around like she owns the place, ears perked and eyes twinkling with curiosity.

By her side is Liv, the gentle soul and cuddle-giver extraordinaire. With a calm presence and soft hums, Liv brings balance to Sassy’s spark. She’s the kind to lean into you, to rest her chin just so, offering affection without needing a reason.

Together, they’re pure joy—Sassy bringing the sass, and Liv bringing the love. The pasture feels fuller, warmer, and somehow more complete. Welcome home, girls.🦙🦙🦙❤️❤️❤️

Our first Alpaca Felt Workshop was a huge success! 🦙🎨
Five amazing children joined us for a creative day, meeting the alpacas and making their very own felted portraits. Each child showed incredible focus and talent — and the results were absolutely fantastic! The alpacas even posed with their woolly lookalikes. 💕
