Nick Of Time aka Nick












And his owner Kelly. Don't they look Fabulous together? "Nick" is a horse that came from Canada. He's a perch gelding that I purchased via Foal Train. Nick had the best laid back personality when he was here. He and Kelly hit it off right away. She has done a wonderful job with him. They compete now and are doing quite well. I'm very proud of the two of them! It's great to get these updates on how well they are doing together. Makes my day!

Surely By Three

Aka Dolly. This was taken on the 8th of Jan. She'll be 21 this year.

I was told that horses tend to mellow and slow down by the time they hit 10 to 15 yrs old. I would like to know who forgot to give Dolly the memo. (Must have been me :P)

She loves to compete and has what one would call an inordinate amount of Go. On the trail, she's hyper. At a show, it's a completely different story, she's all business. She is retired HUS and soon to be a retired trail horse. She maybe getting up there in age, but she doesn't think so.

It Snowed on my birthday

Which it's doing right now also. Once we get some decent snow on the ground, IF we get it that is, I'll take a picture. So far it's not sticking, but, if it does, I'll be sure to ad a pic or two. On the 15th, Sabrina wanted to take me to get my hair highlighted. It was her birthday present to me. :D While we were there, it snowed some huge flakes. It didn't stick, but it was cool none the less. I did get my hair highlighted by The Hair Cuttery. They were doing free coloring for appts only. It was a student day, so it was pretty cool. I've never had my hair done by a student before. There's a first time for everything. She did a dang good job too.

Today it's snowing again, I'm HOPING that it sticks and we will have some pretty white stuff to play in. The kids haven't had a chance to see snow yet, so hopefully they will have something to see this time around.
