Part of our farm is sheep. Actually they are a really big part of it. For quite a while we have sheared or not sheared our own sheep. But I do remember when Mr. Peters came out to do it for us. This year we called him up and he came out to do it for us.
We had the three Wattermann boys come over to help pack wool and to help me catch the sheep and bring them to Mr. Peters.
He was very fast. It took him 1 1/2 hours to shear 16 sheep and clean it all up.
Ready to be sheared
Trina and her kiddos came over to watch. They were quite amazed.
Me learning how to properly flip a sheep over. :)
Wool packing...
It was a pretty fun day. :)

How many times did Mr. Peters stop what he was doing, look over at you and smile saying, "Am I doin' it right?"?
