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.

Attitude? What attitude?

One Pissy Shasta. She was a bit perturbed that she had to share the attention everyone was receiving. You would think she's ignored on a constant basis. Not! She probably gets more attention then any of the other foals out there, only because she Demands it! Look out Amy cause she's going to be a pisser. Feel like ignoring her for a day? Guess again! She has her own notions on that front! ; ) She's quite the character.

Our first really cold day.....


Amazingly, no one gave me any trouble about putting their blankets on. Imagine that! Elly stood there like she's had one on many many times. She's such an old soul. Yes that is mud that Elly is standing on. Frozen mud at that! My hose froze and split. Who would have ever thought it would be a challenge to find a hose in winter?

Christmas

Hannah on Christmas morning. She ripped through her presents in record time. Notice the cowboy boots she got in the second picture. Once we put them on, she refused to take them off! LOL

The first thing she said to me when she got here was, "I wanna ride my pony!" Dear Lord..... I am in so much trouble with this one! She's never been on a horse, let alone allowed to get any where near them as of yet. Once she figures it out, I can see her hopping on and going for a little ride, unbeknown st to Grandma. Oy..... I better keep a really close eye on Ms. Hannah! ;) At least I'll have one grandchild that will be into horses. :D

Sandy

I just love this horse. I have a few favorites. She is at the top of the list. ; )

Finally a decent picture of this gal.

Admittedly, I'm not a good photographer. However, this gal Finally stood still long enough for me to take her picture. She's Usually up in my face or has one of those Eeyore looks going on. She is the hardest horse I have to take a picture of. I think CC looks pretty darn good. She has grown a bit, and now is a good solid 14.2. I'm hoping to send her to a trainer here shortly. She is still for sale. If interested, please contact me privately. Here's her pedigree if your interested.

My adorable Grandson. He's starting to smile quite a lot now. He coo's and is starting to hit things with his hands. He's quite the little cuddle bug too. Not that I'm complaining. I wonder if he'll like horses as much as his mom and I do. No matter, time will tell. His brother does like horses, but he is quite afraid of them when they are full grown. The only one he's Not afraid of is Cotie for some strange reason. Who knows. Maybe he senses something I don't around the others.
