Ester Lambed ~ March 24th, 2012!!

Well, lambing has started up again:) Our seven Icelandic ewes were all running with a couple of rams back in the end of 2011, so I don't know when any of them are due. But, Saturday morning (March 24th, 2012) it looked like Esther was going into labor. I checked on her every so often and then at about 1:30pm one of my bothers told us that there was a sheep having lambs.  So, I went into the pen and sure enough Esther had two feet and a nose hanging out. I pulled it out (it was just a little stuck, she probably would have been able to get it out) and it was a little dark brown ram lamb. A little bit later she had a little dark brown ewe lamb. She just had twins and they are very tiny and cute little babies:) I am not sure if the sire to the lambs is Josiah or Harvey, since they were both in with the lambs (hopefully we will be able to see who the sire is as the lambs get older).

Here are some pictures of the birth (I will try to get some better pictures of the lambs when I can) ~

Ron Paul Will Lead The Way ~ Song and Music Video

I know this is not necessarily farm related, but really if you think about it, it all involves our freedoms and how we live, and this is why we made this video and song, so that we can tell you and inform you about Ron Paul and why he should be our next president.

Whether you are for Republican Presidential Candidate Ron Paul or not, please watch this short video, as it is a powerful message about the United States. My good friends wrote (and sung) this song, my sister put the music video together. It is really worth a few minutes of your time. Please feel free to share it far and wide as well.

And also if you are not for Ron Paul already, PLEASE PLEASE really think about voting for Ron Paul and how he will truly give us all our freedoms back and let us do what we want to do, he will not do 

what Barack Obama and the other three Republican Presidential Candidates are doing, like telling us what we can and can not do.

Please I really urge you to go to the few websites below and see where Ron Paul really stands and don't 

just listen to the news medias, because they do not do Ron Paul justice. Also please do not be one of 

those people who think that their vote does not count and it does not make any difference, because if everyone thought that then nothing would happen. So, please vote for Ron Paul and make YOUR voice be heard, DO NOT be silent, we need to get Ron Paul in office so that we can change this country around and in the right direction.

Here are some Ron Paul websites -
