Catching Up and a quick update.

Well  how to start off this post is tough. I know I have been a bad blogger and let the blog slip through the cracks, but this year I PROMISE to keep it updated always!! :-) so here is just a quick update before lambs start and I really start revamping here again!. We had a very good sales year this past summer/fall selling all of my lambs and adults I wanted to thankfully!, I will be starting a meet the flock series soon to show everybody who all I do have left. and I will be posting a breeding list at the end of this post so if you see any crossings that interest you please speak up and I can put you on the waiting list!! :-) also I have taken a totally new direction for this fall and I am going to be starting polled breeding this fall! but I will save all of that for another post!, Here are the Breeding Groups I did this past fall.

R.I.P baby girl

Today i lost the one that started it all. Maybelline.  from the moment i layed eyes on this beautiful girl 3 years ago i knew she was meant to be mine. she had the looks the personality everything. i loved her and you bet she was my girl. she followed me EVERYWHERE always greeting me with an adorable baa when i would walk in. she was one that couldnt be replaced and never will be. so many memories with her she will forever be in my heart. she will be so greatly missed.
