School Vacation


The kids in this neighborhood are on vacation.  Our 4-H group "Sheep and Kids"  took advantage of this and did a felting workshop.  They met here at the shop.  We are lucky to have a local shepherd who was generous with her time and showed these kids how it works.

                                        
                                                    Felting is a great project for kids.  
                                        Its soap and water and making a mess.

It was a very successful day.

The last lambs were born on Saturday morning.  Twin ram lambs.  The total count is 82 lambs born to 51 ewes. They are happily running and jumping in the barn now.  It seems impossible to get a good picture of the lambs on the move.

Outside is seems that summer is here!!  I know its just a teaser, but we took full advantage of the great weather and got a lot done outside.

The sidewalk is done...

The trees are trimmed...


The garden is tilled...

Then on Sunday we enjoyed a day of rest with family.  Happy Easter to all.
