So, here it is. The Beast. The Grizz. Pig. Haven't decided on a name for it, yet, but no matter......here it is. Sitting in front of our house. Yay..........


All kidding aside, I think this new family addition will be fun for us. We haven't been much of a "camping" family - I guess I still don't see the attraction, but it will come in extremely handy at the Cowboy Mounted Shoots. It's rough on the outside and rough, but not without potential, on the inside. Once it warms up a little, I can start cleaning!!!!

Hey!! Remember me??
I have severely neglected this blog, lately. It's not so much that I don't have the time, but more about me not having a whole lot to say or share. Crazy. I know, right? We are busy enough with basketball and guitar lessons, but I am so enjoying the peace and quiet for a while, that I'm a little afraid to talk about it, for fear it will go away.



I will spare y'all from the obligatory Christmas photos of the kids opening gifts. I think we all were very pleased with the holiday.

I did want to share one photo, though. This is Vanilla sporting a beautiful, new, hot pink, blanket!! This is what was on Ally's wish list for Christmas. We don't normally put blankets on our horses, so we told her Vanilla probably didn't need one. Well, Vanilla is getting old and has also developed some skin issues, so it turns out, Ally was right. Vanilla,the diva that she is, seems very happy in it.
