So many good suggestions. <br /><br />"Bandit" from both <a href="http://quiltedsimple.blogspot.com/">Quilted Simple</a> and <a href="http://thehaymakers.blogspot.com/">Haymaker</a> was very cute. <br /><br />Matt's favorite was "Rocky" from <a href="http://evergreen-david.blogspot.com/">David</a>. But I think this calf's a lover, not a fighter. And since the prize is one of my pictures, I got to overrule him.<br /><br />"Dominoe" from <a href="http://sea2shore.blogspot.com/">Sea 2 Shore Farm</a> was in the running right up until the end.<br /><br />Loved <a href="http://forthesethings.blogspot.com/">Karen's</a> "Kiss" idea, hailing back to my rock band days.<br /><br />Debbie's "Blackjack" idea was another one pretty fitting for this little guy. Jack was our "boy name" when we had our daughters and it's still a favorite of mine.<br /><br />"Marcel" from Blue Yonder was a great one, and did you know that when I was 13 my best friend and I did a pantomime act and won ourselves a trip to the Iowa State Fair? Good times.<br /><br />But ultimately I had to go with <a href="http://happyacres.blogspot.com/">Judy</a> and call this calf "Shakespeare". <em>(With a hat tip to <a href="http://childreninthecorn.blogspot.com/">Farm Mom</a> who brought up the Shakespeare connection with "Revelry"!)</em> It was his dramatic start to life and his theatrical white mask that makes "Shakespeare" fit so well.<br /><br />So Twinville and Judy, please email me your name, mailing address, and <a href="http://s81.photobucket.com/albums/j206/sugarcreekfarm/Images%20from%20Sugar%20Creek%20Farm/?albumview=link">what photo you'd like</a> to <em>themillers92 (at) osage (dot) net</em>. I'll be sending your pick in a 5x7 print with a white border, suitable for framing :) <em>(And Judy, if you want either one of these photos of Shakespeare instead of one from the group just let me know.)</em><br /><br />Thanks for playing, everybody! Keep your thinking caps on...another "Name That Calf Contest" coming up Sunday night!sugarcreekfarmhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09655268212094370061noreply@blogger.com
