A Little Stud Colt....

Born this morning around 5 am... a little stud colt!

 Mama and baby are just great!

 Muneca is a wonderful Mom and is taking great care of her little colt.

The Aggie Boy could not be more happy!!

It's a good day on The Farm!

 

Introducing A New Animal Into The Herd...

 

Well...It seemed like it would all work out... and in the end it has, but it has taken awhile.

The day we introduced Harvey to the other farm animals was a day that won't soon be forgotten!

We thought that he would do best with the Longhorns, because Harvey

likes to chew off the tails of the horses. We felt pretty certain that he wouldn't

attempt that nasty trick on the Longhorns. But it only took a few seconds upon

 Harvey entering the Longhorn pasture, for the Longhorns to go a little crazy.

I screamed...The Aggie Boy jumped into the pasture to save

poor traumatized Harvey, chased the crazy Longhorns away and

removed Harvey from the pasture and led him to the horse pasture.

The horses seemed interested in Harvey, but the moment the poor guy

entered the horse pasture, it all happened again. The horses chased him..

.bit him...and then after a day...everyone settled down and are now

living happily every after! Only one small detail...

The horses tails are a bit shorter...and Harvey's beautiful flowing mane

of hair and now pretty stubby! We have Reina to thank for that!

 I guess she was a little jealous.

All is well in the farm family now!

 

Some Things You Just Don't Forget....

 

For some, "horses" are simply a part of who you are.

That is The Boy/Man. He loves them, and they love him!

After not riding for two years...he is back at it, and it is like he never missed a day!

I love to watch him ride, it is a beautiful thing, mostly because it calms his very soul.

 

 

Mother and daughter!
