News

Hey everyone, I have some really good news, but first I just have to tell you about something that happened the other day.  Mom and Auntie Carla were talking, and I heard Auntie Carla say that she thought mom should let someone else write the blog!!!  Can you believe it???  Mom set her straight pretty quick because really, I AM the lead mare - right?  And who else could do this?  Jazz or Scotty?  Come on, they're BOYS for goodness sake.  Becca may be able to do this in a few years, when she's settled in more, but I'm 17 years old and have lived here all my life, there really is no one who could do the job as well as me.  I just don't know, I always thought Auntie Carla liked me.....

Anyway, on to the good news.

We are all naked!!!  It's been so cold this month already that all us girls have had to wear our blankets, but it's a little warmer this weekend so mom took them all off and we get to run around naked until it gets cold again.  I mean, the blankets are nice, and they keep us toasty warm, but there is nothing like rolling naked in the snow on a nice sunny day...

This is some of us, with and without our blankets.

More good news is that mom hung up our Christmas stockings!  That means treats and goodies for us all.  I know most horses share their stockings with their people - so some of the stuff inside isn't actually for the horses, but I guess that's ok because there is always plenty for me!  Just a reminder...  I like most kinds of horsey treats, vanilla wafers, nature valley honey oat granola bars, and of course apples and carrots.  Mom asked me to tell you not to put apples and carrots in the stockings though, because they freeze.  Make sure anything you put in won't be bothered by freezing.  Oh, she also reminded me to tell you NOT to buy us those Apple Wafer treats, she won't let us have them because they are so easy to choke on.  I remember Sundance choking on one years ago and I'd just as soon not go through that thanks!

We had a new horse come yesterday.  His name is Chance, I've met him before because he used to come visit sometimes.  He's only staying for a month, while his mom is home on school vacation.  Too bad really, he's cute!  This is Chance, tall, chestnut, and handsome...  who could ask for more?
