Baby Lamb Day

Ah, the joys of the internet! Such speedy sharing of information! I mean, how amazing is it that something can happen and then only one week later, I'm posting it to share with the world!

Yeah, I know. A week. Pathetic. But what can you do? The sad thing is, all this time waiting and I don't even have a video to share. Well, I do, but my video editing program crashes every time I look at it so even though my video is almost done, I have given up totally. Meh.

But at least I have pictures! Of baby sheep!


Four Day Old Baby Sheepage

My parents bought some land last year and their new neighbor there raises show sheep. So when Dan and I visited over Easter, we all loaded up and went to see my parents' land (which is very nifty but no pictures because honestly, not as cool as sheep). And, since we were in the neighborhood, we saw all the new lambs. (Okay, okay, so it wasn't 'in the neighborhood' so much as my parents bribing me to come visit them by promising we'd go see the lambs but whatever. We went to their house, saw their new land, played paparazzi with some sheep. It was great.)


With the Mama

(This might seem like a tangent but it's not, so work with me here - it's totally sheep related.) The one redeeming point Iowa had for me was springtime. Suddenly, little tiny black-faced sheep were running around in fields next to the roads. It almost made going to school in Iowa worth it. For like a month.

But the reason I fell in love with the little sheep was not just because they were adorable little packages of bleeting and wool (though that didn't hurt). No, it's because when they are all long-legged and knobby-kneed, they look like they are wearing bell bottoms.


Groovy!

Now, if I get my video editing software working, I might have a video to share but at the fast and speedy rate with which I share information, it might be next month.

Oh well, sheep never go out of style.
