It started in 2003 with our first lambing season – what were we going to name them???  That particular year we named the boys after trees and the one lone girl after a flower.  I had so many flower names that I didn’t get to use, so I used the same naming theme in 2004. 

Violet

Birch

The theme for 2005 was cartoon character names – kind of obscure ones 🙂 

Rafiki

 2006, 2007, and 2008 were the years for car names – very fun! 

Lancer

Last year was a year we all needed a little inspiration – so we had Hope, Joy, Bliss, Grace, Dignity…

and Serenity.

I had a really hard time with a theme this year – how could we have lambs with no names???

Luckily inspiration hit days before the first lamb arrived – Cities in Oregon!

So far we have Sublimity, Echo, Amity, Wren, Unity…

and Paisley the cutest lamb EVER 🙂

I’m looking forward to some boys so that I can use – Ironside, Granite, Dundee,  and Gaston.

Then there are the names that I will know who they belong to as soon as they are born – ZigZag, Rufus, Dufur, and Boring!
