Abi & Tinkerbelle out at the pond

Poor Little Harley

Harley has been lame
Jeff and Dr. Belles came out Saturday. Dr. Belles gave Harley a shot and then wrapped his hooves after Jeff trimmed him. He is doing okay.
He doesn't like being left at the barn alone when the horses go out to pasture. Poor little guy he just stands in his pen and whinnies.

Papa's Tomato

If you look to the right of the fence it looks like tire tracks when in actuality it is parallel horse trails.

Jewel's color is not as red as it was now it is more of a dun roan like RubyShe glistens like stainless steel

Busy Summer So Far

I Love My New Washer & Dryer
I painted my utility room....LOVE IT
We put a subfloor in our hay storage so that hopefully the hay won't get wet in the
dead of winter

So far we have about 9 tons of hay put up for the year...we are nearly half way there!

Beautiful Jewel

I'm not sure she could get any more beautiful!

She is doing a lot of learning like tying to the fence.
First time under saddle.

Yes, she is only a yearling and no I will not ride her for 2 more years, however it is never too soon to desensitize them to the saddle.

As you can see Jewel handled the saddle the way she handles everything, "It ain't no big thang"! I couldn't love this little girl any more than I do.

More Jewel

The Very beginning of Pole Bending
Never too soon

Cavaletti's

Going over the jump

Not crazy about the bridge but learning it is not a big thing.

Amazing Jewel

Going over the makeshift bridge
The tarp is no big deal

Helping me straighten out the tarp in the wind.

Backing between the barrels.

Midnight and Jewel in the pasture. Jewel is everyone's best friend.

Kissy

Such a good girl learning that the barrels are not scary.
Kissy walking over the cavalettis

Walking over the jump. She's learning to trust and do what she is asked to do. Such a good girl
