HORSE BUSINESS


Greg and I have become horse owners for the very first time. I purchased Jackie from my nephew, Stephen, and quickly learned I have a lot to learn about this whole business. She has learned even quicker that I don't know much and has tried to get away with all she can. She is being stabled nearby in Arlington, so I can ride as often as I can and look forward to learning as we go. Here are some pictures of our maiden voyage.

She really did not like my hot pink cowboy hat I borrowed from Erin. Actually tried to eat it!!


Jackie really loves Greg!! He brushes her and gives her treats and makes it hard for me to get her attention.



She was very concerned about the storm coming in, not to mention all the farm animals next door who were watching (and giggling).





I was finally able to persuade her to let me get on. I have since left the pink hat at home. Yeehaw, ya'll!!!

You look good mom! I can't believe you got a horse, come this way and I might be able to get you a camel! Love the storm in the background, could you send it this way, sure do miss those. You better be careful on the horse!
