Things have really been moving around here. We have three new boarders. We also have sold some horses and added a few to our roster. Marla is our new trainer and has been giving lessons and training our horses also. It has been a while since I have done an update so I need to fill you in on who is here. Our horses here now are Zippy of course. Buddy, Madonna, and Angel the three weanling. Spice and Matila both riding mares. Trace a yearling colt. Sport our two year old colt. Checkers and Annie broodmares. And Roxy, Frosty and Fanny… more broodmares. Roxy and Fanny are in foal. Roxy to Zippy and Fanny to Mr. Cool Hand Luke. Fanny is supposed to have a filly this year so it will be a full sister to Trace. I can’t wait to see it. Boarders we have are Ruby a pony, and Dewey and Skyye the warmbloods. Scoops is still here also and out with Trace.
Around the farm we have been also doing alot of small projects. Painting, replacing windows and of course fixing fence. All of the stalls now have matts in them which has really helped us use fewer shavings. The kids are much better helpers also now that they are older. They have been moving hay, and dusting cobwebs. The hay crop was smaller than usual this year. We ended up selling our second cutting and the it turned out that the third cutting was much smaller than usual because we had so little rain. Now I will need to buy some hay so that we have enough for everyone.
Thanks for watching,
