Ok, I am two margaritas in, so I apologize if this is too forward, but high five to you for all of this. You have such an awesome, healthy, happy, well-trained randomly assorted menagerie that you clearly love, and a kickass supportive significant other in Mo, Dillon the Dressage all-star, and a career that you rock. I've been following your blog probably since 2010, and it's always possible to get the wrong impression, but you've never seemed so happy and balanced across the board as you seem to be right now. I'm equal parts jealous and totally happy for you. High five!
ReplyDeleteNo margaritas here, and I second all of the above!
ReplyDeleteThirded, and I'm only high on bubbly water and a super squeal-fest of beautiful horsey pics. That photo of them together snuffling around the wheelbarrow struck me in that they are so different but all so damn lucky and happy to be together in your all-comers family. Love your happy healthy herd, and love that you're so happy! <3
