These are pictures for my family to see what I have been up to!!


Ok, this first pictures I took in Texas with Paul's family for Thanksgiving. It is sunrise and sunset on our last day.





Dutch and his new-ish girl friend. They are separated now because he wants to fight with they boys that get to be on her side on the fence.

These next pictures are all from around X-mas time.
Paul and my kitten who's name is Maserati but that we call 'girl-cat.'
She is hopelessly in love with Paul.D-man.

Dad being weird with the tree lights.



Spring in N.C. Our barn is in the best little community- we can ride anywhere!!



My boys.... actually getting along!!! (OK so Dutch was freaked out at a bunny and Paul was afraid he was going to be stepped on... but still!!)
I love this picture because it looks like a post card!!



The Trip Down to the Beach was one of 10000 bridges... some that you could look down and see the water below. It was the most nerve racking trip I have ever taken!!
Dutch in our little rented trailer, his eyes are so pretty. This was taken at a Truck stop.. he was begging the man next to us for yummy food.
His temp. home in S.C.


The dinner before the wedding was an oyster shuck and shrimp boil.
My dress for the Wedding Reception and Dinner.
BEACH RIDE!!!!!!


All the Streets on the Island Down in S.C. were like fairy tales!!

How much three years can change a horse and a person




Here was Dutch the day we bought him Nov 27th 2007. He had already been under our care for 1.5 months and all I can say is I wish I new then what I know now, and my horse is a saint!
He came to me with no experience, no muscle, no fat and no feet. We are still working on the feet! I just want to take a minute and compare this photo to ones from this winter and spring!
The last two pictures are so Dutch, standing absolutely still despite a very large Rottweiler Barking and charging the fence because my Uncle was on his back. And him and I on a snow day!


This is one of my favorite, he is like Mom, why on a ladder?





Can I just say I love my horse!!

Here are a few photos of Dutch from yesterday. Man! Has he ever gained weight he doesn't even look like the same horse!!! His feet are still awful and I am truly at my limit for shoes, none of them get it right!!
