This weekend we ventured out to the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival with some good friends. Despite it being rather hot and crowded, I had a wonderful time! There was lots of yarn shopping, and I came home with a few skeins of some wonderful stuff. There was also plenty of lamb to eat (strange, I think) and we enjoyed some barbecue lamb ribs that were awesome. The kids like seeing the animals, and watching the experts shear the sheep.
These alpacas were adorable. They are so small and sweet looking, and make cute sounds. I also happen to be a big fan of alpaca yarn.
These alpacas had their fur shaved, and their hairdos match Amelia's!
We all loved checking out the different sheep breeds. This is a heritage breed whose long hair on their faces looks like dreadlocks.
While I was yarn shopping, Mike bought the kids corndogs. Corndogs!? They loved them. Gross.
Colin thought the rams were really cool.

Wow! Those alpacas are so cute! I can't wait to set up my own alpaca farm someday - with some nubian goats of course!
