the sheep next to the orchard
Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 10:29PM the session was over, the sweet family had left. the rain had started and i happily put my camera away in its broken down red leather bag, zipped it up and threw it on the seat beside me. i was ready to go pick my kids up from their favorite aunt's house. they were baking halloween cookies while i was at my photo session. i was excited to see their creations.
i started the car and i kept looking at the sheep who came to the fence line when i was putting stuff in the car. it's not like me to break from a decision. a normal thought would be, wow those sheep are so awesome, i should take some photos. then i would think, put it in the memory bank, i will come back another time. things to do, always something to do...
but then i thought, no. its now, the sheep are here now. they look amazing and friendly and they want to greet me at the fence. i am so glad i stopped. it was hard for me to leave. they were just so darn cute. one of them wanted to be my best friend. i just had no idea they were so social. the one guy actually tried to get out many times to come with me when i finally got in the car. so here are a few photos of my new friends. i have to go visit them again soon. they are good listeners, they liked my story.
and my children. they had an amazing time making cookies, while i was busy. i just have to include a photo of their creations. i am told they had no adult help in the formation of the fingers. just the measuring.






and the scary fingers that tasted so good, i had to hide them so tim and i didn't eat them all on the kids!

love the sheep. their big eyes are so friendly. take me to them!! i might just live there.
i didn't get any cookies either, so Tim, don't feel so bad.
Ewww, those cookies are gnarley! Nice work, Hazel and kids. Oh, and the sheep are some of my favourite pics ever!
Ummmm, those fingers are kind of icky! Glad they tasted good though. LOVE the sheep.
funny that the fingers i made with my 3 year old didn't quite look as spooky!...but they sure tasted yummy.
the sheep is adorable-look at his face.
