Ewe #16 had a single boy

Eva's boy lamb

Eva and her lambs

Daddy said to get a picture of him paying Eli for a mug he sold (which he had glazed). 

We went out to check on sheep this morning and Ewe #16 was lambing.  We could only see the head and one leg.  I tried to push the lamb back in but couldn't.  It was a large lamb.  I found the other leg not far back behind the head.  After straightened it out I helped her deliver her lamb.  She has always had twins and triplets but this year just a single.  Its a boy weighing 15.8 lbs.  Daddy, Adam and I went to town to get groceries and pizza.  We watched Dragon training while eating lunch.  Nik came over for a couple hours.  The boys played outside for the first hour.  Jacob was sitting on a dead branch over our ditch but the branch broke.  He was caught buy some shrubs and pickers which kept him out of the ditch.  The new lamb is doing great.  This evening we lost power for several hours.  It was a very windy day and some trees had fallen down on power lines.  We used the generator for our microwave and tv and had popcorn pop and ice cream. We watched the movie Wonder which was very good.
