Dear friends,

I apologize for being a week late recapping our lambing this year, however, as expected, last weekend was quite crazy.

Through Sunday we had 14 births from 6 ewes and the final ewe looked as through it was going to deliver a basketball team. Well, we went into extra innings (mixing metaphors) and Tuesday afternoon the final ewe delivered a very large lamb at 14.2 pounds. 15 total !!

We enjoyed our many guests who experienced the magic first hand. Please let us know if you would like to stop by for a visit.

All in all, we had a very successful first week with 14 healthy lambs and only two bottle feeders. Unfortunately, as often happens, one triplet did not survive birth. Below are some pictures of my best helper Lauren with our star bottle feeder (a triplet born at 6 pounds) as well as "Valentine," named for his rich dark chocolate coat.

Speaking of Valentines day and chocolate, nothing says I love you like a cheese and mushroom omelet made with our eggs. Please come buy your eggs while supplies last ! And at the same time, you can visit with our two bottle feeders in the garage.

Fun fact: 141 million Valentine’s Day cards are exchanged annually, making Valentine’s Day the second-most popular greeting-card-giving occasion. Consumers will spend nearly $20 billion on valentines day gifts and nearly 6 million couples will get engaged.

Enjoy your week !

Your friends,

Harry, Lauren and Harry
