Even the Terminator has donkeys. Mini donkeys are amazing animals & great pets. 🫏❤️

Money can't buy true happiness, so despite a $400 million fortune, Arnold Schwarzenegger lives a low-key life on his farm.

He gets up early, at around 5:45 or 6 a.m., to tend to his "complaining animals." The star hilariously shared that if he didn't feed the animals, they'd wake up all his neighbors with their noise! Ironically, Arnold finds the "farmer's chores" therapeutic and fun, and he allows his miniature horse and donkey, whom he called Whiskey and Lulu, in the house, where he feeds them oatmeal cookies in the kitchen.

From time to time, fans spot the actor in regular grocery stores making purchases. Schwarzenegger seems to enjoy such a humble life, especially after becoming a grandfather of two granddaughters.

For those that couldn’t be there to see it in person. Cullman has grown & changed so much over the years. I’ve lived here my whole life. The Christmas tree used to not be a big deal. It sat in the Belk (used to be called Belk Hudson) shopping center. Now look at it! 🎄🎄🎄

When you get the opportunity to see the ✨big picture✨ it’s truly jaw dropping how precious Cullman Christkindlmarkt is.

❄️We couldn’t have made the magic happen without our Title Sponsors Visit Cullman ☺️

❄️We want to hear about your experience! What has been your FAVORITE part so far?

I took baby Stella on a walk yesterday. She has been easy to learn how to lead. She enjoyed her walk & getting to meet Buddy our mule, Star our quarter horse & Lonzo the llama. 🦙.

Love this guy! (Start watching us about 1:39 into the parade.)

“What’s in the horse trailer?
Is it a horse?
Maybe the ones that made the naughty list.
Wait… it’s a LLAMA!! And a DONKEY!!
Llama, llama, llama, llama, llama”

So fun! Bob & Chewy are alpacas but hey, y’all can call them llamas if you want! Haha!

We had so much fun tonight in the parade! Milo our mini donkey, Bob & Chewy and Mirabelle one of our goats were a hit decked out for Christmas!

Mirabelle didn’t make walking the whole way so she enjoyed parade from inside the trailer during the last half.

Milo was a rockstar! I was prepared with treats & peppermints in my pocket for the few times he didn’t decided he didn’t want to walk.

We had a lot of friends & family come with us to ride & walk. Big thanks to all of y’all that helped! This was our first Christmas parade. So much fun getting to be a part of such an awesome night in our town!

Great start to the Christmas season! Post your pictures in comments if you got one of us in the parade!

Surprise! Come see us tonight in Cullman at the annual Christmas Parade! Starts at 6:00. I’ve heard it’s the largest parade to date! We were going to be in it last year but we both woke up deathly sick. So we’re SO excited to be in it this year!!

Not the best weather right now but tonight should be great! And 60 degrees when parade starts!
I’ve attached parade route due to it being a little different this year!

This is a flashback pic from last year on Christmas Day with 2 new my mini horses. I dressed them up & took some pictures.

Since we were out yesterday we decided to go visit a friend my husband works with. Her grandkids were there which made it even better! They loved the animals! Milo was her grandson’s favorite! 🫏 He got to lead him around & feed him. Love the excitement that being around animals brings out in kids! Priceless!

She plans on bringing them to our Christmas event to see Santa & Mrs Claus on Dec 16th. 🤶🏻🎅🏼

11/26/2023

Fun birthday party today for a cute little 5yo boy! Milo gave rides, kids got to feed & brush the animals. Perfect day for an outdoor party! We brought the farm to the city!

Our oldest daughter made homemade fried sweet potato pies on Thanksgiving. Our son-n-law also helped assemble the pies. They sure were yummy!

11/24/2023

Happy Thanksgiving! We have so much to be thankful for! We got to spend the day at home & with family. Lots of good food too. Enjoying some time relaxing right now.

Had to go take some pictures of the donkeys before it got dark. Can’t wait to introduce everyone to this sweet little boy! 💙

Not to brag but this is something I’m very proud of!

Meet Mrs Santa Claus! She’s traveling all the way from the North Pole! She’s excited to see all the kids on December 16th at our 1st annual Christmas on the Farm!

I’ve actually known her my whole life because she is my aunt! She’s my moms younger sister. She used to dress up at our Christmas family gatherings either as Mrs Claus or an elf. She’s always been so fun & loves kids. She was thrilled to be able to come be our Mrs Claus! She got a beautiful new costume for the big day.

Y’all come meet Mrs Claus & have your picture made with her. We’re going to have so much fun! We’re so proud to be able to help make some magical Christmas memories with your families!

Little Butterbean & Dolly went to their new home today. Sad to see these precious babies go.

They have a beautiful new home with a new donkey mom! Mini donkeys make excellent pets. I know they will be very loved & spoiled at their new home. 🏡🫏

Good morning.
This is our most asked questions.
Is it a llama? Or alpaca?
I always say they are cousins but actually much different from each other.

Unless you come to the farm you won’t see our llama. He stays there to look after & protect everything.

Do they spit? Yes, they can. Ours don’t spit on us. They sometimes spit at each other at feeding time. I’ve gotten in the crossfire before and it is not pleasant! You know what they say? “Spit happens”…

Alpacas & llamas are more prone to spit on people if they’re feeling threatened or if being mistreated.

They sure are curious & unique animals! 🦙🦙

My welcome home committee this morning! Love our llama Lonzo! ❤️

Jemma’s 9th birthday was a fun afternoon seeing all the kids (&adults) enjoy the animals! Her mom told me she loves horses. Now she’s in love with mini donkeys too! 🫏 The donkeys were her favorite!

She was sad when we had to pack up to leave. She said that it had been the best day of her life! That means so much when kids tell us that! That is why we love doing this service!

So glad we got to help celebrate Jemma turning 9! 🎂🥳🎈
