It's been five years of blogging here for me. I really can't believe it. Over 1,000 posts, untold number of photos, a writing journey... all things I didn't know I had in me. I started this blog on March 16, 2006. I give credit to Jane Brocket and Alicia Paulson for getting me interested in blogging. Somehow I stumbled upon their blogs and became entranced in their writing and photos. After a couple of months of reading, I decided to take the plunge and join them in the blogosphere.
It has been a fun journey and one I plan on continuing. To celebrate the beginning of the sixth year of blogging, I've asked a bunch of friends to contribute to the party. For the next couple weeks, I'll be featuring some great giveaways, interviews, recipes, and of course more sheep and lamb photos. Check back often. And welcome to the party.

I'm so glad that you did start your blog! Since then, I've bought a couple of your books and so enjoyed learning about what it's like to have a working farm. Here's to the next 5 years, and many more!

I don't follow many blogs, a handful, and yours is one of them. Well worth the read, I look forward to it, more than the other 4, lol.
I learn neat stuff, see the wonderful place you live, kind of live with your family.....and you've amped up my knitting!
Wishing you 50 more years, at least!
