the sheep are sheared....what a wiggly event...and they were highly dramatic....bahhhing and worrisome running about while waiting for the others to get done...the littlest, blackberry, was last and they were all in a frenzy. I was worried Cornelia was going to charge the shearer in hopes of getting blackberry free....they all look so tiny now...but they are in great health and playing happily in the greening pastures....
Life has been going by quickly...haven't had much time to blog (everyone who gets my reply emails a week or so later knows this)....it is hard to believe a month ago the snow banks were higher than the stores front sign...
We are all fine... I have been spinning and washing up bits of fleece....some dying in the future too, I hope. I will have pictures of 5 or so skeins soon....dh and boo want hats from the sheep and I feel I must make a stuffed sheep from each animals fleece to commemorate their first shearing.
Dh and boo are in Boston watching her first Red Sox game. Dh kept it a secret until breakfast this morning and she nearly started crying she was so excited. I am so happy for them to have this experience together....she is tickled pink!
Speaking of tickled pink....I purchased an art doll from "Fabric of Meditation's" etsy sight this morning....just went there...saw it....hit purchase and it was done....I am soooooooo very excited. I know I need to purchase an embroidery from her this year also but I am waiting for that since I am about to purchase our flights for vacation (5 months from today!!!!)
and...the sheep and wool is coming up on mother's day...wooo hoooo.....
happy spring day to all!
here's dh at the game....he is looking fantastic, isn't he? :)
