From top to bottom, they are Hannah and her twins, ram and ewe. We only had three white lambs born this year (I used a natural colored ram on everyone) These two are stunning. Second photo is our dear Ainsley (center of photo), oldest girl in the flock now, surrounded by yearlings. Third photo shows how big the lambs are getting. Only two months old in this picture! Everyone has their heads buried in hay because I had to shut them out of pasture for a few days while we clipped weeds. Lots of rain and lots of growth this year and with fewer sheep, they just aren't keeping ahead of it (a good problem to have actually!) And lastly, I had to sleep in a fiber picture, didn't I? Corriedale locks, washed and combed, and just a dream to spin!
As usual, these photographs show our flock of Corriedale sheep and their wool. Be back soon with some finished knitting projects and hopefully more lamb pics!

How I wish I could come for a sit on the deck. Maybe have some iced tea and spin a bit.
The lambs are adorable, the sheep are impressive. You are blessed.

I have missed your posts and the sheep. Looking forward to more writings my friend.

Must be a 'before shearing' pic as they look so woolly lol.
Wow those washed locks look scrumptious....is that from Lori?
The door is always open, my friends ;) And Jody you're right - those are Lori's locks!!! I love that fleece. Keep an eye out for a Finn Sheep post soon, haha!
And I forgot to say that yes, indeed, I AM blessed! Susan how is your recovery going?
hi cary! so glad to see your summer is going so well, the sheep are so cute!! i wish i could hug them! i am so busy here being a full time care giver for my 7 month old granddaughter (since she was 3 months old). it's lovely and exhausting and just really wonderful. i've been an absent blogger, but active on instagram (so much easier for the time being). hugs! x
Cary, I never tire of looking at your sheep, your farm and your wool!! All beautiful and inspiring. Glad that your summer is going well, that there has been lots of rain to help your pastures, too.
Thanks for sharing the pictures. The fleece looks beautiful. Mary Kate is currently spinning some of Bones up. It is a joy for her to spin and is so white and soft. Glad to hear your summer is going well.
Your sheep are so cute! And the colors are beautiful. :)
Thanks everyone, for all of the lovely comments ;)
