COLD COLD COLD

Ok... so maybe some of our winter visitors from Minnesota might not think it's freezing out, BUT it BOOGER FREEZING TO US! This morning the thermometer in the car said 30 degrees!!!! That was at 6:30 this AM. Even the horsies are trying to stay warm!

THE PARADE OF LIGHTS!

Circle C happily rode / drove in the Apache Junction parade of light this year. It was really a blast! We had 6 riders on their horses and a whole wagon full of people... and dogs! It was a TON of fun.. as the pictures will show!

POKER RIDE FUN!!!

A few weekends ago we went over to the Goldfield Ghost Town for a poker ride. For those of you that don't know what a poker ride is, you ride your horse from location to location picking up a playing card at each stop. At the final destination (The Saloon in this case) you show your hand and the best hand wins. It was a blast and everyone had a good time! Can't wait for the February one!!!

HAPPY DOG!

On Saturday night, Memo got a side job driving our Haywagon at FIlly's Roadhouse- http://www.fillysroadhouse.com/ - They had a great band on the patio and a "Ho-Down" and Memo drove the wagon (I got to ride sidekick!) - anyway- back to subject....When he was getting the wagon ready at the ranch Lita (one of the ranch dogs) decided to take a ride. Then she decided that she didn't want to get off... so she just sat there, happy as can be on the back of the wagon. Just thought it was too cute not to share!

GYMKHANA SUNDAY!!!

Mary and Delaney both did the stables proud at P and M on Sunday. Both competed in the open Gymkhana. This was Mary's first. Her and Cinnamon got two frist places in their age grouping!! Delaney and locaks wer ein teh ribbons in every class as well. We are SO proud of you both!!!

REMEMBER THAT RESCUE HORSE???

You wouldn't recognise Quickie now! He is healthy and fat. Doing well and just a HOT HOT boy! Time for him to go to work!!

CHECK OUT THAT RAIN!!!

We had a great Saturday playing in the rain!!! Memo and I decided to forgo the work because of the rain and just go play!! We did a drive up to Peralta Trialhead and played in the washes. We had Memo's big truck so it was easy to cross even when they were flowing.
