Part of the fun pet sitting at my sister's house when she's away is catching a glimpse of all the twins that have been born recently. My sister's brother-in-law {who also lives on the ranch} raises organic lamb and sheep and while I was pet-sitting her furry critters, the pasture along the road leading up to her house was filled with these cuties....
I wish the kids and I could have gotten closer to them, but without looking as though we were practicing for mutton busting or maybe, more appropriately, a sheep scramble competition, it wasn't happening. They're wild little critters and wanted nothing to do with me or my two kids in tow.
So we just observed them from a distance.
Which was just as beautiful......but not peaceful.

"THERE ARE TWINS OVER THERE!" ~Paige
"CAN WE CATCH ONE?!" ~Bryce
"CAN WE TAKE SOME HOME!?" ~Paige
And so on, and so on, and so on, until we reached my sister's house.

Those are loverly, very peaceful pictures of the sheep in the fields. By the way, I see you're in Marin County...my wife and I are from Florida but one of our all-time favorite vacations was to Point Reyes Station, it is absolutely beautiful out your way!
@John, we live about 15 minutes from Pt.Reyes Station and love it also....thanks for stopping by:)

Your sis is very fortunate to be the keeper of a most restful place. I miss the sheep my Dad used to raise, especially now, during lambing season. Love this last pic...looking like a painting.

They look so sweet! What great scenery for your walk.
Nothing sweeter than baby lambs... Love the nice green pastures! Love the twins.
Love sheep we raise them and they teach us so much. I am so glad that your children are getting to experience farm life.

Okay, so...like I am so right there with your kids - I WANT ONE!
Awww ....looking at these pictures reminds me of my parents farm. They raised pygmy goats and the babies were just as adorable as these lambs!
