We had a great Hug A Sheep Day Party yesterday! Thanks to everyone for coming out and a huge thank you to everyone who worked their butts off to help us put this together and make everyone feel welcome!
As usual I took a ton of pictures. I'm going to break them down into manageable "collections" over the next couple of days. We'll start with some special sheep stories...because it's all about the sheeps anyway :-).
I wasn't really planning on putting Burrnie in the hugging pen, but when I started sorting which sheep were going to work first shift, he came out. I decided to give him a try - he does really, really love cookies - and if he was too scared we could always pull him back out.
He was pretty concerned, but I figured if he could figure out that the scary people had cookies, he'd be happy to be there and at least get some good social experience. We positioned a few people around the outside and the other sheep were happy to demonstrate.
"You've got cookies?"
"And he's got cookies?"
"And you've got cookies..."
"Okay, I'll try a cookie."
"Cause I do love me some cookies."
And next thing you knew, he was eating cookies without fence protection ;-).
"But I'm letting anyone hug me!"
There's always next year, Burrnie. You did a really good job for your first big party :-).
