This morning I combed through my iphoto library while sipping coffee and watching daybreak. What struck me most is that in a year of challenges and some major crashing and burning, stuff got done. Sheep were fed, shorn, lambed. Yarn got dyed, shipped, shared.
Through Flock For Healthy Hearts we raised over $3500 for the American Heart Association's Go Red For Women, a campaign to promote awareness of the serious but often overlooked risks of heart disease in women. I can't thank you enough for your support. (If you would like to make a donation, please follow the link in the sidebar; I still have gorgeous sheepy 2011 wall calendars to share as a special thank-you to those who contribute).
With help from friends, family and community, the farm has pulled through. And we also managed to have fun, care for each other, love sheep. And knit.
Hope you'll enjoy the following: a distillation of 2010.
