It's the most wonderful season...... of all!

.... all those sheepies for shearing
We're up and out early
When the shearer does call
It's the hap happiest season of all!

(Bobbi the Great Pyrenees is ready to shear!)

(YOU go first, NO, YOU go first!)
(last year's shearing day baby- Pixel!)
There'll be lunches for hosting
No coats 'cause we're roastin'
And hoping it will not snow
There'll be silly sheep stories
And tales of the glories
Of shearings of long long ago...
It's the hap happiest time of the year!
(Our Hershey the Shetland napping in the sun after his haircut and lunch)
There'll be fleeces for sortin'
And all of us knowing
Our hinders will drag out of here slow
But be of good cheeeer
It's the hap happiest time of the year!

(Bobbi is exhausted-almost done shearing and our Devlyn the Scottish Black Face is trying to get her to let him escape!)

*shearing day blogpost number 2 to follow!*
Happy shearing season everyone- happy karma fleeces to follow too- asap!

smooches from the nekkid sheeps!
