the boys
i just love my boys.
even when they act like punks…
and in order to get a “nice” picture i have to have him be serious and look away…
lucky for me i have Big B. who is all sweetness…
they climb chicken coops…
sometimes they are super duper athletic…
and sometimes they are very scary…
but i always love them.

barn wood frames
handsome hubby made me two of the most beautiful barn wood frames.
with some help from my dad (and his table saw and router….)
we got the barn wood from a friend, who passed away may 13, 2010.
this makes these pictures frames extra special.
i took a picture of the sky last summer and wanted the perfect frame to put it in.
i’ve been waiting and waiting.
and this is the result.
good things DO come to those who wait.
hubby made me this one a few months ago. it’s perfect with this picture of billy blaze…
doesn’t it look like he is peeking out at me from the barn door?
(he actually was… it was the metal door to the indoor arena 
)
May I always give my horse time to think,
to process what I ask of her (him).
Help me to be patient and positive,
giving her (him) words of encouragement
and always, always rewarding the smallest “try”.

narnia
this morning i woke up to a winter wonderland.
snow everywhere, the sun shining.
and narnia in my front yard!
the lion, the witch and the wardrobe….
and a little angus.
the "lamp post"
i went out and was certain i would find a faun
walking home through the snow. and he would offer
to take me to his home for tea…
instead of a faun i found an angus.
he invited me in for cookies
chasing
when you stop chasing the wrong things,
you give the right things a chance to catch you.
fun with family
oh yes. my family knows how to have fun! and did we ever!!
it was my lovely cousin’s birthday and as part of her present
i wanted to do a photo shoot…
my wonderful auntie joined in!
and they took some of me
randomness
randomness. randomness.
is that even a word!?
you know how when you repeat and repeat a word and it starts to sound weird?
well randomness sounded weird the first time i said it!
some randomness from the last few days…
the other day i took some wheat grass out to billy blaze as a special treat.
i figured it’s green grass right!? and it’s winter so green grass would taste really great.
as you can see…. it did. he gobbled that right up! i’ve put it in my kitchen window
to see if i can grow it again.
one of my horsey friends and i went out on saturday, during all that great sunshine and blue sky
to take some pictures…
billy blaze with my friend and her horse in the background.
this is her arab gelding, azad….
they are doing hill therapy to strengthen his back. it’s going very well! not only is it working on his back…
it’s also strengthening their relationship.
and she took some of billy blaze and i.
i love these! and just for the record i have on two pairs of pants and 6 shirts, plus my vest.
and here is a picture of an umbrella after two LBE (left brain extroverts) are done with it.
we used it for the pictures, then billy got a hold of it and it was all over!
time for a new umbrella
