Tessa's home!

Nelson and I in the trailer getting Tessa. Off dad's camera

Me unloading Tessa. Sorry very little words here, gotta get to the good pics

Rocking horse canter! I was glad she stayed moving for me to get the camera out!

Dad took Phoenix out to munch some grass, I was waiting for Mr. Montgomery to get here with the hay

Tessa and Jazz do enjoy each other. Tessa's got a buddy!

Sherralyn stopping to take a cat nap.

Tessa watching where Dad had Pheonix out of the feild. Despite Pheeny chasing her, she still hollered for him.

Almost all the burrs are out of her tail!

Looking for Phoenix

Inking Babies and Packing Larry

One of the Velve Boys, you can barely see it in his ear, The last three were done today. They had such nice big wide ears to work with.

This is one of the spots. I had been taking the pictures of them before I tattooed them, but went backwards on him. He had good sized ears for it, a few of the Spots' ears were tiny and harder to work in.

After dad and Aunt Lisa stopped by dropping half of Larry here, Mom and I got to pack it up into freezer bags and put it in the freeze. Here's some pictures. I have never seen this much beef in one place before. Quite astounding to me

The purple tote is all hamburger. I couldn't move that tote afterwards.

And for Aunt Anne, we ended up with 3 packages of Liver for you. Mom put some of the other stuff in a bag for you with the liver for the next time we see you.

Horsie World Update

It was nice enough outside today to remove the heavy blankets off the horses so I put Phoenix lighter fleece blanket on.

Sherralyn doesn't have a blanket but she's so fuzzy. Comes with youth~at least in horses.

Jazz went for a walk down the road with me since it was nice out. I went ahead and polo'd her backlegs since she does have a habit of hitting her own legs and she got her lighter plaid blankie on.

It's easy to tell she got barley any eye sight left. But at least her ears were pricked and she enjoyed sniffing a lot of things, something you'd normally see a dog do.

Put a little video clip on there, you can hear her feeties hit the asphault. Micheal's got them hooves in the right place for strength. It was a humerous minute walking just listening to her hooves hit the ground, very comforting at least for me.

*Hence the reason one day I would love to get another dog to go walking with, less prep, that's for sure!

Minor Barn modification

Dad, Allen and I were slightly bored today since it's still snowing. We built the shelf to put some small things on. Mostly so I can start some organization, especially with Tessa coming in Friday(hopefully if I can get Mr. Francis to truck again).


Made this shelf out of barn board and some 2 x 4's.

This wire shelf is to hold grooming tools and the extra feed buckets that are proving useless in the winter. So you know, those fence hanging buckets, don't work terribly well on panel's. They tend to try and break the hanging arms off. I have a lot of stress marks in them so I'm switching to the ground rubber buckets as I get them back in.

Group 1 of the English Spot babies, one hoping over the other. 2 blue bucks, 2 Lilac bucks with the Tort Velveteen Lop buck

Group #2, This group has 1 Lilac buck, 1 blue doe, 1 blue buck, 1 Tort velveteen Lop

Had to find something to do today. . . .

Merry Christmas from us all!

Merry Christmas All!!!!!!!

Meet Felicity

This is baby Felicity. I got her to *hopefully* try to replace Blaze. Blaze was a one of a kind, but I want to try. Her ears are still working on flopping down, but she's a meager 8 weeks old.

One side

The other side.

So while I'm still letting my dutch die out I'm still keeping my Hollands and Velveteen Lops going(and the English Spot, they've grown on me!)

I've sold a couple of the babies now, one Spot buck and one Velveteen Buck. so I've only got one Velveteen left(out of 8) and 6 (out of 9) Spot babies left.

Christmas Joy and Blaze

Mom and I set up a small Fiberoptic Christmas tree for this year.



Mom playing with the tinsel like stuff.


The tree done with the tinsel stuff and the butterfly topper

With a few little ball ornaments. As soon as I pick up the Breyer ornament, I will put it on there too.

Lastly, my baby Blaze has has left me. His whole family has already gone, he was the last of his litter. His last sister died around a year ago.

He was my first Rabbit and he was the best bunny a girl could ever ask for. I upgraded the photo some, but apparently you can't see it well.

*~Feb 15, 2005- Dec 16, 2010~*

Minimul update

Been cold and snowy here at home, but the horses feel right at home, they're on the second round bale, they love that hay.

Phoenix does still love laying down to take a nap.

Sherry-Lynn(She at least responds to that name, not Oriana, so I gave up on Oriana) walking back towards the hay bale.

One of the baby Velveteen Lops. I can't wait until she can get on a show table in the spring.

3 of the Baby english spots. I lost one when I was forced to wean the 9 babies early due to momma developing mastitis. But 8 Healthy babies and a healthy momma.

Not much of an update is it? Sorry folks.

My version of Black Friday shopping!

Only after 10 am was my shopping started! I meet mom, Jess and Ayden down in Morehead so mom could go grocery shopping at Walmart with Jess and Ayden. Jess and Ayden came into Tractor Supply to catch up with me first.


Ayden saying hi to Gabriel.

Gabriel looking over, trying to help me decide which bag of horse food for the girls that I was getting(I already knew though!)

The girls waited for me to unload the truck, they figured I would feed them again!

All the stuff I picked up at Tractor Supply was necessary, Rabbit Food, Horse food and horse mineral block. So it wasn't really Black Friday shopping persay. Though it took FOREVER to check out, the little machine for debit/credit cards, was taking forever to run. I ended up waiting in line longer than I was in the store!

More babies moved home!

Phoenix loaded like he's supposed to, a gentleman. From all his years of being a show horse another trailer didn't mean anything to him. Oriana was adament about getting on but Aunt Lisa and I 'talked' her into it- with Nelson's help. The two stood next to each other in the front bay of the trailer, then off to Micheal's to load Tessa. Tessa refused to get within 3 feet of that trailer, we tried for 30 or 40 minutes to get her on and finally gave up, put her back in the pasture with her mom and Dusty and then I led Nelson to out place.
He first led Oriana off the trailer and I took her, while he grabbed Phoenix. I let Oriana into the pasture and she gamesly started munching on the little bit of grass there is. Then I led Phoenix to the water bucket let him take a drink and let him free.

Yeah they got a little food, with some Probios to keep their tummy's calm.

A lady came out and looked at Oriana, she's going to talk it over with her husband tonight and will let me know tomorrow if she wants her or not.

Long Month

It's been almost a month since I last updated, many things have changed.


The Velveteen Lop babies are eating solid food already.

These are the English Spot Babies, They have also started to sample solid foods now.

Mom helped me run the electric fence that's covering the back half of my horse pasture last week.

Jazz in her new pasture today! Ori wouldn't get on the trailer with Jazz so Jazz came solo.

She won't get any closer to that electric fence, but she'll come to me.

It's been almost a month since I last updated.

Good Day

This is one proud Momma. I bred to the buck I got from Virgina, and Today she gave me a surprise! 8 Little wiggly ones.

I know they aren't going to be blue or black, They'd have darker skin if that was the case, so maybe tort, blue tort and maybe a tri or two? I dunno. Give me about 5 or 6 days for fur to start coming in and I'll know for sure. Mommy's a Broken Blue-Tort and Daddy's a solid Tort.

I bought two posts, but we only managed to get one into the ground.

Though for not being cemented it, that post is very firm, we tried to wiggle it after packing the dirt pack in around, and then watered it down, waited for that to soak in and then put some more dirt and going to pack it again tomorrow; it is very solid, we couldn't move it.

Blaze told us when it was time to pack up for the night by running back to the barn.
