First swim of the summer in AA's pool


First swim of the summer in A A's pool.


They had a great time.


They had their new suits on and look so cute. I will not swim unless the sun is beaming. Today it wasn't but it sure was muggy. Kodak was in the shade looking bored. Hopefully tomorrow I can get a ride in.

Pool time


Today has been a lazy day. Sky has a mounted meeting for 4-H tonight so no horse stuff here today.



We went to A Ash's today to swim. Kids swam I played with the camera.



She has all of these stars hanging from her porch they are so pretty.







Yesterday Kodak got a bath he was in a mood, lazy and didn't want to be bothered. Sky rode him for about 25 min then we gave him a tub. Some day soon maybe this beast will get a bath she sure stinks.

Update on Lakota

Well haven't posted much becasue of RAIN!!!! It has rained almost every day of summer vacation so far. Yesterday it wasn't raining but our paddock is so muddy couldn't even get on to ride Mr. Kodak. I am sure he is pretty happy just munchin the green grass. Sky and I have been doing some groundwork (trainer watching) with Lakota. We miss him so much but WOW what a different horse he is. He still has a stud chain on but he respects the chain finally and doen't just push us over and go do what he wants to do. He is much better and if we can get a few more rides on him he can finally come home!!

Vet visit was great I am so proud of my pony


This is the face of a very well behaved pony!!! He was sooo good. He snorted a few times as to be expected but he stood still and got all his shots and his blood drawn for his Coggins and he was awesome. Now if the rain would stop we can actually ride. He got alot of carrots and lovin after the visit. yeah for Kodak!

Its alll good untillll...

Well thats over with and I am all clear. YEAH for me. So I get hom to find that Lillain my boxer has ingested a loaf of bread and then continued to throw it up all over the house.


She is a big booger so Pete runs out and gets electric fence.



He reads the book and freaks out because he hates to read instructions.




I remember when she was this big and just slept. Oh can we just go back in time.

Its that time of the year again




Well its that time to go to the cancer center tomorrow. Ughhhh I HATE going. It smells like chemo in there and I get so scared when they do my bloodwork. I have been a mess all day. Oh well I did find these cute wellies and maybe I will treat myself when my results come back . Maybe if a certain sister named nancy is reading this she may just go to her tack shop and get them for me hint hint hint

Ohhhhh Lakota


Sky rode Lakota again this weekend. She has to kick like mad because he is afraid of puddles.


He sees his buddies in the field above us. Notice the pink SWAT in the ears :)




The face only a mother could love and I sure do ..

Horse show pics

El had a great time at the show so did Sky even though she didn't ride she ran around with all her little horse friends.

Beautiful day for a tack auction


I found this beauty in the manure pile. Its amazing how beautiful it was up close.




This Buddha is in the foyer she is so beautiful.


This little guy is in the flower bed. He makes me smile every time I walk by.
I am going to the tack auction tonight. I must get that breast collar!
Peace

Happy VS Grouchy


Sky likes a planned activities as you can see from today's photo I didn't have anything planned.....



Ellie Fu is pretty happy just chillin.

Swimming with Oscar

Took Ellie swimming at Col's pool. Lots of fun. She swam with Oscar because Sky was still in school.





They enjoyed playing with a tennis ball.




I got highlights from Col as we watched these 2 swim.

first day of summer vacation





























The best day of the year better than Christmas!!! JK. So today I fooled around with the ol camera. I caught a boy who should have been up in his paddock down in his stall. So I decided to get some shot of him. I love him so much and he is so awesome. Still spookey but with time with time. I noticed since Lakota has been at Mikes for training Kodak doesn;t love to be up in the paddock unless we are up there to so we opened the gate and let him come and go as he pleases. I wanted to get a ride in today but it pored so hard last night the paddock is a mess ....hmmmm maybe thats why he isn't up there in the mud and puddles?? I took some more shots of some places around the farm.

Auction time

G and I went to the auction last night. Missed out on a nice breastplate. G bought a HUGE bunny. The thing is bigger than a wiener dog. I think the thing weighs like 15 pounds. We really really wanted to get a pony for Ellie Fu but she was PG. Well maybe next time.

My FU graduates







Well Ellie Fu graduated from Kindergarden today!! She was soo cute.

Did you say DONKEY







Do you LOVE these faces as much as I do. Come on Pete let us get a donkey to replace Black Goat Gray Goat is soooo lonely!

I really like her but she doesn't like me




So Lakota really wants to chill with Mike's mare Fancy but ummm she pretty much does not feel the same way hence the Pink SWAT all over his face. AWWWWW just look at his cutie pie face I miss him so much. OK Mike work your wonders and get him to understand the whole ground manners and leg pressure thing PLEASEEEEEE.

Pink Swat




So Mr. Lakota was full of nicks from Mizz Fancy Pants so I had to put SWAT on him. Gianna yells at me for getting the Pink SWAT but it is too cute. Don't you think?

Sometimes it takes a pony to make ou smile







Rough day today at work. BUSY kids know there is only 3 more days left but there is so much to do!! Got hom walked Lilly (who is mad I have no photos of here on here I must get a few) had a glass of Merlot of the SIL who is really good at listening to bad days. Got home to see a beautiful face in a field all ready to get his legs rubbed down.
