*Long* Time No See...

It's been a *long* time since I've been on here and I feel really bad about that. I've kind of neglected my blog. lol. But so much has been happening this summer (especially just recently).

For the last two weeks my mom and I have gone riding almost every evening. I hate to see but I haven't played with Brizzee very much this summer. I've been helping my mom so much with irrigating, swathing hay, and baling it that I haven't had much time. But for almost two weeks we've been playing with the horses and riding almost every evening.

We have a few new additions to our family, lol. My mom bought a BLM gelding Mustang around the last part of June. His name is Mohawk. He's a light bay and he's so sweet. Mom can already spray him with fly spray and groom him. She had the halter on him a few times but didn't lead him around or anything like that.

And just last Friday my Uncle bought a "pair" of horses that we brought here on Sat. There is two, a red roan mare and her 1 *month* old colt, also a red roan. He is thinking about naming them Tater Tot and Spudnick. I would name the mom Tornado and the colt Saffire, if it were up to me, but they're his horses so whatever.

That's really exciting. The mare has let us touch her and her colt a few times. Journey (our buckskin filly that is almost a year...I think) is doing really good. We've been playing with her at liberty a lot. She responds to pressure really well and she's turned into such a sweetheart. She's always the first horse to the gate and always the first one to greet you. It's really cute. I love her. Mom finally decided to call her Journey instead of Mikkah Journey, so I like that :)

Anyways, that's what's been happening lately. I hate it that we haven't done much with the horses lately, but that will change :)

Thanks for reading,
Randa.
