Visitor from Germany 8/6/2008

Today, my friend, Becky Smith, brought out a student from Germany. His name is Ole Gross-Helmkamp. I enjoyed having him here and we had a very enjoyable ride. Hopefully, he will make it back here another time to visit!

"Down on the Farm" Pictures 7/18/2008

This was such a fun day for me. Our friend, Vicki Hembree and her daughter, Rachel, came out and we had fun with prom dresses, boas, beeds and one of our favorite mares, (and I know they are all favorites when I talk) but she is truly special. And so is Rachel. I know most people call this "trash the dress" but our version is "down on the farm" and we didn't trash the dress, we just had fun with pictures. We took so many I can't even begin to put them all on and it was so hard to choose but these are a few of my favorites.

Enchanted Tomas 11/18/2007

Enchanted is waiting to meet his son.. Doesn't he look excited? Do you ever wonder if they feel a family connection? Not sure about the stallions but have seen it with mothers. We have one mare who after a couple years she was back in pasture where they come in every night to the barn. Since she is a "top dog" mare and gets to come in first, she would stand back and let her daughter go to the gate first and everyone else had to wait. Quite interesting!
