It's an adventure. Our family of five is taking a year off from... the normal. Less work. More travel. Even (gasp!) homeschooling! We invite you to come along with us as we head West. Then on to Europe. Even grand times at home in between! Our goals: Rest. Connect. Experience. We hope to grow closer as a family and gain a deeper appreciation of all that God is, does, gives. Scaled back commitments. Scaled up adventure. Come along with us as the story unfolds!

Sheep, some hairy "coo," and other animals

We couldn't go to Scotland and leave out pictures of sheep and cows! They really are everywhere. And the sheep really look like sheep. I know that sounds weird, but all the sheep I've seen at petting zoos look like goats. But these Scottish sheep were white and fluffy. Anna liked calling then grass-eating puffles, because they looked so puffy and were, well, eating grass.


 

 

 
I'm not sure why the sheep have blue or red coloring on them. We figured it showed who they belonged to.

 

We saw several horses, many of which had blankets over them.  I guess because it gets so cold?
 
 We came across this friendly dog on the island of Iona.

Of course there were lots of cow and sheep stuffed souvenirs to buy.  Don't worry, no one bought these.  Way too big!
 



But we didn't make it out of the Iona Abbey store without a highland cow book and stuffed cow (a little one!).
