Lambs, Lambs, Lambs (in Sweaters), and More Lambs

ByJenn Colby
I’ve begun calling this group The Hoodlums. This is the cover of their first album. You can say you knew them *when*!
The leaders of The Hoodlums are these two brothers. They were the first born, and have welcomed each new set of siblings to the big party. At 23 lambs so far, there’s quite a party!
Lambs, like cats, like to find an odd, flat paper-like surface to lay on; If they were cats and this was a newspaper in the middle of the floor, they’d be on it.
Mrs. Banks has a fine set of twins to feed, so she’s tearing into the bale while Fiona is a bit more selective.
I have never seen a more catlike lamb (am I sensing a theme?) than the girl on the right. She cleans herself every day! Trust me, that’s rare.
I love how this guy just settled in and everyone else had to eat around him. “Hey, I’m sleeping here!”
Our matriarch, Lucy (of MUG fame), had two solid ewe lambs in her final lambing before retirement. Thank you, my dear!
Joan is Lucy’s 2018 daughter, who just had two lambs of her own. They aren’t big lambs, but Joan is taking great care of them and they are holding their own in style (if only half the size of the mob running races at night).
Jeri offers a warm spot for her daughter to lay her head down. Wouldn’t you like to settle down with them in the sunshine?
Couldn’t resist—lamb weighing selfie!
Our yurt crowdfunding campaign starts April 19, and our friend Ramsey came to take pictures to help us freshen our look. Isn’t her work lovely? Photo: Ramsey Papp

More to come…lambs, events, and pictures! Looking forward to a whole lot of fun in 2019. <3

It’s been about six weeks in our crowdfunding campaign, and we’ve had some ups and downs.  Wow, it was an amazing start.  Right away folks jumped on.

2019 Shook Some Foundations; 2020 is the Year to Make It Happen

ByJenn Colby

A friend of mine recently said, “When our foundations shake and we feel unstable, that’s when we grow. That’s when we find out what we are made of.”  I’ve been thinking lately about the difference between 2019 and 2020.  For me, 2019 was full of new ideas and directions—so many that, as another friend described,…
