They are looking real good. How is the farm/boarding/lessons going? I bet you are glad to see spring. We have had 80's and 50's here and tonight there is an outside chance of scattered FROST ..... :th

Yikes! We were having weather like that up until recently and it really made me miss Texas warmth. One reason I am behind on clipping was having to wait for it to warm up. We were still getting freezing weather at the end of April. The grass is way behind too in this state. It is just starting to grow. The farm is going as well as can be expected with the economy. Horses are becoming a luxury item for many people.

Luxury item is right. I took a pass on a pony that would be perfect for my granddaughters. One horse for me.

I know the stretched neck thing is necessary for show but for me, I think it make the horse look unattractive. Much prefer the natural look

It has been awhile since I posted an update! Spring is finally here to stay and the horses are enjoying it! I have clipped a few, but with no shows scheduled, I have fallen a bit behind on that. Here are a few pictures though!

I am sorry to hear that! Yes, I know I am very blessed to have as many as I do.

It does take some getting used to for most people as it comes from the Arab world.
