OFF TO SCHOOL

Wednesday, September 26, 2012
 Our little Eadie is all grown up now .... 
yesterday she left my mums paddock for "finishing school" for about five weeks where she will be broken in and return a rideable horse .....

 I was a little worried when my husband first told me this was going to happen ....
(I actually know zero about horses, Mark on the other hand grew up in the country surrounded by them) 
but he assures me "her school" will be very kind and loving and she will return an even better horse .....

 Eadie is the first horse I have ever really had much to do with, she is so beautiful and funny .....
she gives kisses, loves people, takes off your hat if you are wearing one, is best friends with my mums dog (they run around and play together all the time) and adores kids  ......

 as soon as she sees you she will canter up (so fast) for a pat and a cuddle .....
she follows the postman all the way up the lane when he delivers the mail (he now brings her a daily carrot)  
and all the neighbors love her .... 

 ..... oh and she smells so good !!!


 She had a lovely wash before she left .....





 all fresh and clean for her first big day of school .....


 ...... we will miss our beautiful girl !!!



LOOKIN GOOD

 Meg and Mark went and visited the horses on Sunday,
Meg did a little photo shoot for me  
 I think the hat really works on both of them  .....




 ..... especially with little Edie's messy bob !!! 

A SUNDAY VISIT

Monday, February 6, 2012
 A nice little Sunday visit at my mums house
 and two very camera friendly horses .....


 you may remember little Edie from here and here, she has grown up so much and is such a smart little horse ....


and what a great fringe !!!



 
 
 .... and this is Jack, the new addition
he has come to keep little Edie company ....


 he is the most beautiful brown roan colour .....


and has a very lovely, affectionate nature  
he likes to give big sloppy kisses to your neck .....
and is so great with Edie ...


.... they really are one gorgeous, contented pair.

Hope you had a nice weekend

A LITTLE VISIT

Sunday, October 23, 2011
You may remember our little foal Edie from this post ....
then a bit more of an update here ...
today we visited her at her "holiday home" ... she has been staying at a friends property for the last couple of months and my is she growing up fast !!!

    I know nothing about horses, but my husband assures me her "holiday" away from her mother is for the best, something to do with weaning and gaining independence ...
and a new hairstyle by the looks of it !!!

She seems content and has made friends with some of the the other horses and even one of the little dogs.
The girls who look after her say she is the smartest horse there ....

  but it was still hard saying goodbye ....
can't wait to have her back at my mum's house (where she lives) ....
which hopefully will happen in a couple of weeks.
       We miss you little Edie !!!
