Easter Lamb( one day late)

Lavender surprised us with a lamb- a baby ewe! She is 9 lbs- a very nice size!

She is adorable. 

Here is Joanna helping her to latch on. 

Here are the boys- Sherman (in front) is the proud father. He's waiting for a cigar!

This is what MY Dad does while this is all going on- he hides in his woodshop!

Here is the baby-still unnamed...lying in the grass, SOOOOOO cute!

This is one of the paintings of the day-

And this is the portrait of Nicole- commission ( thanks Nicole's Mom!)

Nicole came as the sheep shearer and ended moving into a tent on the property, she now lives in town. She is doing her thesis on agricultural community of the Hamakua district, at UH-Manoa ( Owahu)

Nicole is, simply put , THE BEST. One of those people you meet and love immediately. 

I hope I captured her natural beauty!
