Things are finally dry enough that the girls
were able to let the horses burn off some
energy in the riding ring


Here's Gyp kicking up his feet and being silly


General really enjoyed himself too

After being cooped up in the corral all winter,

these two really needed to run and stretch
their legs

Royal Winter Fair

On Monday we went to the Winter Fair in
Brandon with Maggie and her mom, Deb.


Peyton begging for a miniature pony


Begging for a bunny

In the afternoon we watched a Heavy Horse
demonstration. This Clydesdale was part of
the team that won the 6 horse tandem later in

the evening

Begging for a cowboy hat

Peyton's highlight was the Super Dogs show
that evening. And of course, the dalmation
was her favorite!

Quite impressive when the team went over a
jump while he was standing on their backs

Here, Peyton is showing off the Diego puzzle
she finished. These days she loves doing puzzles,
spelling and drawing.


In March we had her gymnastics 'recital' where
the kids could show off what they had learned.


The only thing Peyton liked about the balance
beam was being able to jump off the end

And of course, Ruby! I've lost track
of how much she weighs, but she is
bigger than Cleo and I can't carry

her anymore. She snores, farts and

likes to cuddle on the couch.

Spring is here!

I realize that my pictures are not in order, but,
oh well! These two have spent several hours
with their horses over the past few days...
enjoy!


It's a dirty job, but someone's got to do it!


After the fight...

Since these two are the youngest of the herd,
they seem to like to playfight

General is on the left, Gyp on the right (btw,

General started it!)

Maggie and Scarlet

Trooper

Still picking out burrs from last fall!

Aimee with General + Trooper

The girls are limited with what they can do, so
they walk the horses up and down the hill by
the corral and past the barn.

Gyp is full of spring spunk. Need to burn some
of it off before he is ridden!

Maggie + General walking through puddles

General is a 4 y/o Welsh Cobb and

pretty darn big!

Walking with Trooper

Oh, the joys of spring grooming!

Aimee & Maggie - Lapbook

Here are some pictures of the girls
creating their lapbook

The finished product

Presenting their speech in Morden yesterday

They placed second in their category -
good job, girls!

Model Horse

The girls were eager to start creating their
model horses from the kits bought at TSC

Snow Fun!

Our neighbors have the best toys!


The guys took it out tonight in the blizzard for
a spin. Crazy fun!
