1. We are grateful for all of you who trusted us with your birthday parties, community events, company parties, day care children, senior citizen residents, graduation parties, etc.
2. We are grateful for all of you who invited us back or came to see us for the second, third, fourth time....
3. We are grateful for all of the nice people we meet. I'm sorry that the news is full of reports about how awful people are, because that is NOT our experience!
4. We are grateful for those of you who allowed us to experiment with your group (you know who you are) with animals in training, or trying something new.
5. We are grateful for our animals. We really have a great animal family. We are awed every day that we can have such close contact with such wonderful creatures!

| Animals we've added since last Thanksgiving...(from the top) Noah the chinchilla Boaz the Flemish giant rabbit, our mixed flock (though the rooster that is usually with them didn't come to the door for this picture), and Abish the two-toed sloth. (below) just one video of Abish...see more on the GEE Funny Farm Facebook page, |
6. We are grateful for all of you who have liked our Facebook page and made comments, liked and/or shared our posts. You made it possible for the word to get out about us!
7. We are thankful for all of you who took the time to write a review on Facebook or Gigsalad.com or through email. It helps others have an idea of what to expect, and it makes us feel good because we really do want to do a great job every time!
8. We are thankful for people who have already booked for next year. What a blessing THAT is! All of you who have booked for this year and next are helping to pay for the veterinarian care, food, and housing for our animals.
9. We are grateful for all of the people who help care for our animals. Our veterinarians, Dr. Loof who has taken care of most of our animals, Dr. Herlugson who takes care of my parrots, and Dr. Johnson who has stepped in to take care of my horses the last two years while Dr. Loof is recovering from a serious illness; our farrier, Gary; our assistants Krystal and Angele; our hay guys, Wayne and Rob who grow the hay that gets us through winter; and our USDA Inspector, Jessica. We are also grateful to Angele and her husband, Gary, for the beautiful cabinets they brought us for our animal food prep area. It is wonderful to have so much storage and a great place to prep food!

| The great cabinets we have to store dishes, utensils, and food. They are wonderful! |
10. And we are grateful that we live in such a beautiful place. We have to say that we are enjoying the lovely weather right now and we are grateful that winter is a little slow in coming.

Thanks to all of you for our best year yet. We've been able to see people for the 4th or 5th time and have been able to do some new things! We are grateful to all of you for making that happen!
