Birthday Boy

Ira's birthday was on Tuesday, he is officially three years old now..... yay!  =:)


Reeny's place in 2013.  (The other foal is half brother, Kazmir.)

At our place in 2016.

Well, I finally got my chicken bag done today, after all these years! I started beading on this thing 12 years ago, and then put it away in storage. A few days ago I was shuffling through some boxes trying to find something else that I needed - and came upon the chicken once again. Today it has finally gotten finished and doesn't need to be hiding in storage anymore. And yes.... somewhere out there, there is a native rolling their eyes and saying "good grief" because I beaded a chicken on a bag.... What can I say, I like chickens. Ha ha!!!!!

Grizzly Mountain 2016

Got back from the Grizzly endurance ride on Saturday and Nettie did really well.  It was the first ride of the season for us, and I was very happy with how she did.  =:)

Our lamb (and partial goat) crop of 2016.

The solid black alpine nanny had two cute little goat kids, a chocolate point buck and a gorgeous silver doe.  We're still waiting on Harriet (the black/cream nanny on the right) to drop a kid or two.

Our Soay ewe Sophie had two cute little twin ram lambs.  Mayfields Pip x Mayfields Sophie. 

Her sister Niblitt had a large single ewe lamb this year.  Mayfields Pip x Mayfields Niblitt.

A micro mini spanish stallion sculpted by Maggie Bennett that I painted as a buckskin lusitano. Owned by Natalie Sherard of North Carolina.

Cowboy Dressage Schooling Show

Yay!!!!  Our first cowboy dressage schooling show was today, and it was a ton of FUN!  Really proud of my horse.

Here is a video of Test #2.  (There was a pilot error at K, or else we probably would've scored even higher if I hadn't of spaced out right there....)

A handsome dude with a birthday coming up at the end of the month.  Ira, spring 2016.
