Snow Day!!

Yes..it snowed again today and as you can see...no one is the worse for wear. Well....okay, maybe Ken and I are getting a little tired of it, but the sheep just take it in stride. Glad shearing time isn't happening for a while! Hey, did you notice the "no cows" sign on the barn? LOL. I think the llamas may have put it up there...... :0) They're the only ones that can reach THAT high!

Thanks Ken

I asked Ken to try to get some winter pictures for the blog since I just have not made the time to do it....sorry folks!
I LOVE this picture of Bellatrix. She's like a little pixie..I could just squeeze her every time I see her!


Luke keeping a safe distance from the Wooly's...they're mean, you know! For such small sheep...they're tough little things! They will charge Luke and stamp their feet...not afraid of that dog thing!

Tim was just not too sure about having his picture taken...must have been a bad hair day. Toots, on the other hand, was more than willing to show off her baby bump. :0)

I think Sam was in the process of making snow angels...or just thinking about it, anyway!

A few of the girls looking for cookies, of course! They know Ken ALWAYS has either alfalfa cubes or animal crackers and both are YUMMY! Thanks for the pictures, Honey...you have come to my rescue again!

BIG girl...

This post is for all of the people who helped with Bella's transport this summer. It's not the greatest picture, but it shows you just how much she's grown, how spoiled she is and how much we love our "little" girl....who is now a very BIG girl! Don't tell anyone, but I think Ken loves the big ball of fluff....who we fondly call "Fifi"! LOL

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

I want to wish all of my friends and followers a wonderful Christmas and Holiday season. It's a great time to reflect and count my blessings and you are all a part of that! I have enjoyed reading your blogs and sharing mine with you.....I do so look forward to perhaps meeting with many of you, too....and, if nothing else, just reading MORE about your life on the farm and maybe sharing a story or two about our mutual hobby/passion....our sheep and our crazy farm lives! Are we normal? Probably not normal for everyone, but definitely NOT boring, either! I'll be watching for your new posts and laughing and wishing we were neighbors.....hope your New Year is healthy, happy and has many bouncing lambs this Spring!!!
Peace to all......and MERRY CHRISTMAS!

For my Sheepy Friends....

I ask you....isn't this the cutest Christmas card????

It's Snowing!

Okay, don't panic....it IS December, after all. I just don't happen to be ready, yet. Are you? I am NEVER ready for the first storm...I gradually become more accepting as the winter progresses, but right now...IT'S SNOWING and I'm not ready! I'm really hoping that the weatherman is correct in his pronouncement of only about 2 inches. It just so happens that we live in this "Bermuda Triangle" of sorts....we are not the Lakes Region, but we're not the mountains, either.....we are in our own little bubble where you never know what will happen. By tomorrow this snowman could be 6 feet tall! Tune in for future weather announcements.... :0)

Wooly Washys....

An all natural scrubby to use in the shower and help exfoliate that "winter skin". It's been fun making my Wooly Washys....everyone is different! One thing is for sure, in the process of making these, my hands have never been cleaner!!!

Guess who's coming to Kindred Spirit Farm?

I need your help....your creative help!

Okay....I have been making felted soap bars....and having a blast! I have to get on the stick and do some more felted sheep for a Christmas Open House, too. BUT...in the meantime....what the heck do I call my soaps?? I need to come up with something very soon!!!
Here are a few suggestions:

Soap in a Coat
Ewenique Soap
Ewenique Sudz
Soap 4 Ewe

For some reason, either it doesn't knock my socks off or whatever, I can't seem to find the "right one". Now, my friend Sally came up with Flockin' Soap and I laughed my head off, but thought better of marketing it that way. ;0) She did have a very funny scenario for a commercial, though! So seriously...what are your ideas? Anyone out there with a good twist to scrubbable fleece for people? Or wooly soap?

I really haven't been just lazing around...honestly. It's been very busy here! Fall seems to bring alot of work, doesn't it? Mending fences....oh how I love that job! Ya, right! Then it's time to put the breeding groups together. How many times can YOU change your mind? I have changed my mind soooo many times this year! I don't know why, but I have! There are reasons for this one and reasons for that one....just too many options!
I promise to be better.....really! More pictures to follow!
