We had such a wonderful holiday party at my Bedford property on Friday, some of my animals decided to dress up for the occasion! I hope to show you some pictures from the party tomorrow. In the meantime, please enjoy these.
Carlos with Sharkey and Francesca. All of my animals love him dearly, he loves to come and play with "The Kids"
Rufus, Carlos, Billie, and Clive. Billie is being camera shy!
