This is more of a Frenchie post than anything else...... so for everyone not interested just move along.....



I loved this whole get up. The horse, the carriage, the costume.....



This is the horse my friend was training a few months back; these guys are from the Wild Rose area.



Cuties, once Syd is too big to ride Brownie, she should give this a shot. I am sure your crafty DH could fix up a nice little cart for her to practice with......



Loved these two!





Riding sidesaddle. Of course this lady placed first.



I took over 500 pictures yesterday....... it was like stepping back in time. I would love to return and watch the whole show sometime.

Wow thanks Mel ! Beautiful pictures and horses. In my next life I am going to be born and raised on a horse farm and do it all! Cutie I'm so happy for Sydney that she is experiencing horses as a child. It was always my dream. My little niece Addie is really showing interest in horses (wonder why lol) she always asks me if we're taking good care of her horses. Yesterday she said she could take good care of them herself! To bad she lives 250 miles away.
My sister (her gma) has a horse so Addie will get her horse fix. Hopefully her little sister will follow suit.
Her neighbor has basically a whole petting zoo come for a birthday pary. Babychick, goat, horse and of course...kittens. Addie's favorite animal was the chicks. Sister said she was so gentle with them. A born chicken whisperer.
The home I found for my ducks 2 I'll not be eating them. I've never had my males fight. I have a Batchelor past of muscovey drakes just hang togethe. On the other hand I have a crested magpie drake that breeds nonstop....pig!
Mel you should post all 500 pictures !that would keep Jim busy.
Patiently waiting for OMEN 5 get home. Left over 2 hrs ago. We have no water...again. forgot what you call it (gray little box) wears out from so much water use around here. At least hope that is the problem and not the pump. Things you take for granted hey. Speaking of hay. Found again new source closer to home and $.40 cheaper per bale. As usual though around here 1 step forward and 2 backward ! LOL

PS sorry for the spelling errors. My smart phone thinks it is out smarting me! 5h inkyou can figure it out. I am removing only 7 of the ducks.

I admire anybody who can stay on riding side saddle.. I wonder how many women were pitched off backward ??

..
here is a not-so-good picture of some of the youngsters.. I tried to get closer, but they were already moving away.. I should have zoomed in ..

they were watching me working on Ollie..

"Butterballs"

thanks for the input i had no idea...only paid 8 bucks each for them...dont know if that was a good deal or not...just wanted something for christmas and thanksgiving

 

[cuties]

Birdman, that was a very good deal if you payed that while they were adults.
Frenchie, sounds like you guys are raising that little girl right! Is it Addie? I think.
Well, Blake is happy. And Scott is making a governor as soon as we get home.

 

[cuties]

Oops, guess I will post the pic later :/
