Biscuit was happy to duck out of the gate and come into the barn with everyone. Muffin and Mrs. Pepperpot weren't so sure and held back. Kate escorted us down the aisle and then we went back to get Muffin and Mrs. P.
"I should be bringing the sheep in, but that stupid bottle lamb would only do what I told him if...well he never does what I tell him (grumble grumble)"
"Ha ha he won't even do what his mom tells him to do and is over there stealing hay when he could be eating cookies like me. Surely she's got something better than apples?"
"Hey, that's not a cookie. We are supposed to get treats, not tricks!"
"It's an apple, Woody. Try it. You'll like it!"
He did...and he did ;-).
With Kate's help, Mrs. Pepperpot and Muffin came on in, too. Mrs. P was a little overwhelmed by having so many strangers around and asked to be excused, but I told her she should give it a chance. Muffin took a minute to figure things out and then look out, we have a new Hug a Sheep star!
Hug a Sheep or Mug a Person...either way works ;-).
"I'll mug anybody!"
And with his big sister at his side, Biscuit was happy to mug everyone, too ;-). We are looking at how black Muffin's fleece is under the sunbleached outer layer.
And how soft and silky Biscuit's lamb fleece is going to be next spring :-).
Trying for a family portrait.
And by the end, even Mrs. Pepperpot was all in on the mugging and now even looks a bit cranky that Chocula has monopolized their latest "victim" ;-).
