This past week the irrigation broke, but the company was able to fix it in just a few days! Kris is currently working on a different issue with the irrigation right now - at 10:00 p.m. I'm sure he'd rather be doing this:
Yep, that's my sister Tracy and her family - plus my kids - checking out the freestall mattresses for themselves in the unfinished half of the barn. (We have more visitors, yay!) They all agreed that they were very comfortable. They all had dirty shirts when they stood up.
We also checked this out:
The lagoon is almost ready for manure to be poured into it. The cement around it is done too. Tracy said she was so tempted to run down the incline into the bottom because she'd never have the chance to do it again. She resisted.
We went to the 4-H Fair today. It was wonderful - we all got to see animals we rarely see. Even though we live on a dairy we don't see pigs, rabbits, turkeys, chickens, goats ... I even held a tarantula. (Even though all of my self-preservation instincts were telling me it was a bad idea.)
When we were seeing the sheep, Tracy pointed out something else ...
This sheep and I have the same hair. Color, style, and cut.
Isn't it great having a sister around to question whether or not you're part sheep?

I'm sure you're aware that your grandmother was a Lamb--so, no surprise about the hair/wool connection.
Oh my goodness. I didn't even think about my Lamb ancestors and relatives. Perhaps having hair like mine is how they got the last name in the first place! : )
