Finally!

This evening after a very productive afternoon in the fiber rom, we decided to make a quick check of the field before heading to the house for dinner.  All the way at the bottom of the hill, we were so excited to to find this --




There - finally - beautiful twin lambs!  A wonderful white ram and a beautiful black ewe, both weighing 8 lbs 5 ozs.  It took awhile to get everybody back up the hill and in the barn, but they're all tucked in a lambing jug with second-cutting hay and a bucket of molasses-water.  Julie did a great job as a first-time mama.  We are so proud of her!
