Hello!
Yesterday morning was pretty rough... It's especially hard to hear Coneja "crying" and searching for her baby. :( We were in contact with a lady that lives nearby, and she brought over a white and brown kid for us to borrow, to see if he would nurse from Coneja. We wanted to have a backup so that if we needed to go somewhere, and wouldn't be back for milking in time, we could just leave the kid with Coneja. They haven't bonded yet, and he hasn't nursed off her yet. So, that's what we will be praying for, and would appreciate your prayer for.
In the afternoon, and older man came down to shear our sheep for us! It was amazing to watch him pull the sheep onto their backs and they are totally unable to do anything while they are on their backs! He did each one in less than 5 minutes, and only charged $5 per sheep, besides the setup fee! It was really fun to watch, and I took lots of pictures. :)
In the evening, we went to Fairfield (about 30 minutes away) and played some music for a Mother-Daughter banquet, and even got a free meal! :) It went well.
We are going to be pretty busy for the rest of the week. We are actually making 800 meatballs for the wedding reception which is on Saturday! I think we have about 500 made right now! We are also going up on Friday to help cut veggies for the reception, go shopping, and see if there is any other way we can help the Craig family. On Saturday, Mom is going to take Dani, Emily and I up to the church where the wedding is going to be, to get our hair done by the woman who is doing all the bridesmaids hair! So, we are really excited about the wedding!
I hope you all are having a wonderful week! So far, ours has been really nice! Our violin teacher is coming out any minute to go over our songs, because our recital is this Sunday! Please keep us in your prayers! Thank you very much for each of your friendships! We love you all!!
Love,
Dani, Amanda and Emily
