Sheep in the Backyard

Monday morning, we got the best surprise--a herd of sheep came

to graze in the meadow behind our house.

There are 17 white sheep, 7 black, and 18 chocolate- colored.

One of the sheep hung out at our back fence.

I called her "Libby" and as this picture was being taken, she licked my cheek!

As I am recording the following video of the kids feeding Libby some leaves, Josiah points out a ram who he spontaneously calls, "Big Boy." It isn't until I get a closer focus that I realize how appropriate the name actually is...
