We went to the animal fair......

We brought 4 of our Shetland sheep to the Skagit Fair.  First I got to meet and then show my Christmas present- a 50% Gotland ewe lamb named Moll!  She's gorgeous with lovely soft grey fleece.  Then we showed two of our Shetland rams (Hemlock got first!) and our two cute black and white spotted lambs.  It is an exhausting experience showing animals but very nice to visit with fellow shepherds.

Congratulations, Donna! Tina sent me some photos and I saw your farm sign. Nice photos of everyone's prides and joys, too. :)

Congratulations to Donna and Hemlock! My daughter is going to show Amanda(Madison) and Reagan(George) in 3 weeks at the Chelan County Fair. Yes, it is exhausting showing the sheep and preparing them for the show, but we do have a good time.
