Cities and States

 This year our theme for lambs will be...cities and states of the USA. As of today we have 6 lambs...3 sets of twins...4 rams and 2 ewes. Three Shetland mothers have lambed...5 Shetlands to go and 3 Icelandics.

 First up was Electra on March 31st. Her two sons are above...grey smirslet (looks black now) is Lorado and his flashy smirslet katmoget brother is Lincoln. They are the bullies of the group.

 These cuties are Nala's twins born April 1st. Above (see his horn buttons?) is Vance...he is a fawn katmoget. His sister is the little moorit one with him below. Her name is Virginia.

 Lambs are just like toddlers...into everything and exploring...especially with their mouths.

 "Life is good!" Looks like Virginia is smiling.

 Lambs also constantly try out those legs...as long as Mom is nearby.

 Born to Violet on Saturday, April 5th, was a solid moorit ram lamb and an adorable moorit gulmoget ewe lamb. We are calling him Austin, His tiny sister is Addison.

Welcome to our flock, little ones! You will soon have more friends to play with!

Snowy Sheep

 Katie had a little lamb, little lamb, little lamb...

 Duke and Huck in the snow...Huck has his tongue out to catch snowflakes.

 Emmalee and Ivy, two of our 2013 ewe lambs.

 Rothey getting in the mule as the snow picks up for the second round of the day.

 This is the first significant snow we have had in a few years. We ended up with about 10 inches.

 Darla (Icelandic), Violet and Nala (Shetlands) look on as food is being prepared.

 My sweet Moon Pie, our big Icelandic girl. Her gold eyes always stand out and she usually shows us her teeth.

 Electra didn't mind all the snow that covered her with her warm wool coat on.

 Heartthrob above and Cinderella below are a mother daughter pair. Can't wait to see the lambs they have with Duke.

 Emory, our big yearling Icelandic ewe.
