I love the pics of your horses and kids! It shows that you DO something with them. I see so many horses around here in OK but I never see anyone doing anything with them! Keep up the good work! Makes me wish I was younger and had one! Take care and God Bless.
Thanks for all of your sweet comments Ardith:)) They encourage me greatly! The conviction to work with the horses as much as we do really comes from a few years ago when I was trying to convince Rob that we needed a step-up horse for Alexis, she had nearly outgrown her pony and was getting to be a better rider so we needed a 4th horse. In order to prove to him that we needed that horse I committed to be faithful in using the horses, both to him and myself. It is a conviction that I keep trying to live up to and one that has pleased him greatly. I love the horses, but with little kids for so many years they did sit idle here, too. Every critter on our farm has to have a purpose of some kind and the horses are certainly just for pleasure and don't pull their weight financially so we better be getting alot of pleasure out of them.
Whenever you see Chance usually you see the three yearlings surrounding him. He doesn't seem to mind his position of Uncle Chance.
