This year I took my oldest daughters with me to the WI Sheep and Wool Festival in Jefferson, WI.
One of my twins loves dogs and as I suspected she loved watching the herding trials.
My other oldest has lots of interests and is game for most any
experience so she found delight in the sheep shearing, lambing, yarn,
food - you name it and she was cool with it.
We had a nice time looking through the vendor barns, having lunch and taking in the sights. I may have just found my very own festival-going companions for the next few years (smile).
In only came home with a few yarns - I already cast on the two from Sun Valley Fibers for Daybreak
- but I also picked up some beautiful earrings from Jennie the Potter and a shawl pin. Overall it was a great day and am looking forward to next year.

This year Isadora attended the all day (Sat) Wooly U class there. There was dyeing, knitting, felting, lambing, and all kinds of sheep-related goodness and it lasted ALL DAY! It was time well spent for her and I enjoyed a morning class and some afternoon down time while she played on. Perhaps something to consider for next year.
