@ Candy Lass - Thanks, they sure have my heart already. With all we have been doing to get the old barn down and the RV pad in and fences and buildings, my poor husband has not had one day off since April. I also have this knee surgery coming up in late Aug. ( dang it) yes this messes up seeing the Nach AGAIN.
Anyway, the boys are only one month old and can't be weaned for another 3 months. The breeder offered to let me take the mares home with the boys till weaning, but that puts a bigger barn on the list to build and I just can't do that to my loving hubby. So I will just have to go visit them once a week until I can't drive cause the surgery. By then hubby can take some rest and then we can put up a new stall and paddock.
So Sept is when they come home. Oh happy me.
My heart is so light and I truly didn't know that I was getting so sad. Even the kids are happy to see me so back to normal.
@ Equipix and Iseult01 - Yes, I have wanted to join a program called Personal Ponies and raise therapy ponies. Having an Autistic son I know how wonderful horses of any size are to others. I am planning on doing just that with my boys. While not through Personal Ponies, I can at least take them to local places and offer up visiting times for those that like me love horses, but for what ever reason can't or don't have them. My riding buddy does this with her older mare already, so we can just open up a new area for those that want a smaller horse to love on.
I have done driving and even went as a helper with a friend to do CDE in Beaverton, Or. Great fun, dressage in a cart, endurance run, and gaming type obstacles. It was a blast and I was only on foot and caring for her mini at check points. I did have a mini cart, and sold it three years ago. It will be a while before they can pull a cart, but lots of time to train them to drive and pull at least training poles.
I will take more pictures. That is the one thing I didn't do much of with my Cody.
Oh, the names have been chosen
The darker one, I think he will be silver colored is now " Hawk" though the way this little guy walks and swings his head, he was almost named after J.
he just need to learn to jump and carry a drum.
The Palomino is " Ranger"
I am now thinking how can I make little tartans for the boys. HAHAHAH who knows what I will come up with. I do promise to put one on our bed ( of course hubby's side) and take a picture just cause I can.
I have to say that Hawk reminds me so much of my Cody. It is his eyes and face. I feel like a bride getting ready to be married. I am so happy that the Lord heard my prayers and to feel joy upon waking again, and I don't even have them home yet.
Silly me, you would think I am 10 years old and not pushing 45. Second childhood coming on.
