winter fun

We went out for target practice one day. Emma had fun trying out her new BB gun on some targets.
Sue had a great time in the back of the truck despite the crazy coldness.
We are getting another horse. We are crazy people, I know! The truth is that you cannot get a good well trained horse in our price range so we will be attempting to train another yearling. She is a beautiful dun that is very sweet. She is worth every penny even if we decide to have a trainer work with her later on. I have really enjoyed working with Twinkle and so I am really excited to be working with another also. The goal is to be able to go on rides together and have good 4-H animals for the kids. Our palomino is a great older horse but he is too old to do much with after the next 2 or so years. We are looking to the future and enjoying the process! We take her home mid February.

Awesome! What's her name? I bet that the kids are excited.

The guy we are getting him from calls her "Roo" like a kangaroo. I guess she was funny as a little baby. I'm not sure if we'll keep the name yet.???

I can't believe how much Suzanna has grown! Looks like you've had a wonderful winter together.
