This is me and Liddy on our way home from the festival yesterday. Yes, she rides in the front seat of the truck with me. She knows the drill. Walks around to the driver's side door, waits to be hoisted up into the front seat, I get in, start the truck and about a minute down the road she lays down next to me and within a few minutes is asleep, with her head on my lap. Cutest. Lamb. Ever.
We got poured on off and on all day yesterday, but the crowds were pretty good and lots of fun folks stopped by to meet the sheep. Quite a few even braved hugging on the boys and that's saying a lot. If you've ever felt a lanolin-y wet sheep, you know what I mean ;-). Liddy was tucked in the back of the booth and did just the best job all day. Thanks Auntie Reg for your always awesome babysitting!
The fleeces did very well! Blues for Murphy, Woody and Chocula. Spud got a red (I'm guessing behind Murphy). Murphy earned a Champion ribbon as well and Woody was Reserve in his division :-D. It looked like quite a few entries, so I am hugely flattered!
Liddy and I are getting ready to head back over this morning. It looks like the weather is going to be better today - the sun is shining right now :-). There are still a few fleeces left, including Chocula's ,which they let me bring back to the booth yesterday afternoon.
Come see us :-).

Congratulations! I wish that I could come by to see the sheep and to pick out a fleece. What an awesome way to drive along with a sheep as a companion :-)
I just love hearing about Liddy's routine in the truck! What a sweetheart! And, congratulations on your award-winning fleece. Sounds like a wonderful Fiber Festival!
Hooray! You and your boys deserve the ribbons. Liddy deserves "Cutest Lamb at Festival." What a little fleecy love bug.
