There are just too many things to do on the ‘To Do’ list! The overwhelming feeling is just under the surface ready to show it’s ugly face, but the joy that the lambs bring are helping – they are not helping me check things off the ‘To Do’ list however 😉 It is so easy to sit out in the barn just watching their carefree play. I love the 2-4 week age the best. They are just sure that the world revolves around them. We have 7 new babies since the last post, 6 came in one night! Introducing –
Kenleigh’s Breeze – Junior x Aimee
Kenleigh’s Create – Junior x Aimee
Both of these girls are lilac and so sweet. Create was a little ambassador the other day when a few neighbors came by to visit the lambs. She enjoyed being cuddled and didn’t squirm like the other lambs did.
Kenleigh’s Prosperity – Pilot x Darling
Kenleigh’s Wisdom – Pilot x Darling
Kenleigh’s Bounden – Junior x Veronica
Kenleigh’s Dancer – Junior x Veronica
Bounden and Dancer earned their names 🙂 Within a couple hours of being born they had springs on their feet and were doing cirlces around their poor mother.
Kenleigh’s Imagine – Wrangler x Harley
I was REALLY hoping that he was a she because Harley is getting up there in age and she hasn’t had very many girls and the girls that she has had were very light in color. Her boys are always loudly colored. Oh well! He is a cutey and he looks a lot like his dad when he was a lamb.

We have 10 more ewes to lamb and the barn is starting to get very full!
I have been salivating over my felting books and trying to fit in a few projects as time allows. Here is one that I finished yesterday.
The really fun part for me is that all of the wool came from sheep that we raised.
Stories from the Farm 
I really like that wreath, and think the colors would be MUCH more fitting here at a Shetland farm than at a Jacob farm! How big is it? Is it for sale? Could the ears be a bit smaller and more up-angled? (Now I’m getting picky!)
Oh man Shannon, that wreath is AWESOME! Really, it is! See, you already have a customer and she’s right, they do look like shetlands. Too cute!
Congrats on all the lambs… I’m ready to start here in about a week or so too. Looking forward to it. Glad you’ve had this nice weather to have all yours in too. That’s a bonus!
Thanks for posting all the pictures of the lambs. I may not be able to see them run and play, but they still brighten my day. I love the wreath!! Adorable!
Little Create and Breeze just have the sweetest little faces. And
Imagine is sure a handsome guy.
I use to worry a lot about my “to do” list but now I just work them in order of priority and figure the rest will get done eventually (not always easy to do).
The sheep wreath is really cool! You are very creative and talented and would sell a ton of those at O.F.F.F. How about making a Jocob Christmas tree ornament that would be fun and I would buy one or two or…….
Beautiful lambs and the wreath is a wooly delight!We are getting lambs now too, and I can also spend a lot of time outside just watching them.
OMG–That wreath is AWESOME!!! If I give you a bag of Corgi hair will you make a Corgi wreath????
So many lambs! I love Glory on your website. Pack her up and mail her to Georgia!!!
What a great sheep wreath. You are so talented. Can’t wait to see the grand opening of your shop.
Your felt wreath is fabulous. when you described it on the phone I didn’t have a visual image of it. I just love it. I hope you’re charging enough!
