GUESS WHO THIS IS???????

HERE'S A HINT- THE BIG BUTT BESIDE NOW LIVES AT THE STABLES TOO. HE IS ONLY 2 DAYS OLD!!!

REALLY COOL CONCERT!!




For Memo's Birthday I got him tickets to a concert.. now this wasn't just any concert. This was Joan Sebastian (no not Bach) He is a mexican singer who rides his horses while he is singing. It was INCREDIBLE. these horses were leaping and dancing and Joan was singing away on top. VERY impressive! If you ever get a chance to go... even if you don't speak spanish, GO!

A LITTLE ENGLISH DOES A HORSE WELL



Well I finally talked Nicole into trying to ride english. Our resident wild gyhmkhana rider took the seat and.... SUPRISE- both Jasar and Nicole looked incredible- as you can see! Hmmmmm maybe we can talk her into working towards a show in the fall???!!!

QUICKIE- OUR RESCUE HORSE


Well the other morning memo and I decided to go see the auction down in Chandler to see about a saddle.... bad move on our part. First off, I won't name the auction because it was a HORRIBLE place. The people running it were downright nasty to the animals. Don't get me wrong I do understand that not everyone treats their animals as we do BUT they don't need to be mean to them either.


We were over there and ended up staying with for the horses... somehow or another my hand ended up raising with my numbe rin it and I found myself the new owner of a 6 year old registered Quarter horse. Quickie is his name and he has great breeding up both sides. He was found in a repossesed home. The owners had left and left him behind. He is skinny and not very trusting but he's coming around.


Memo went home to get the trailer and I called him to say "bring a second halter" yep my hand found the air again and I bought a Burro. In my defence we only paid $10.00 for him!!!!

we named him Chimichanga.
