First Brows




The Blog started as a way to chronicle the many "firsts" in Isabella's life.  Those firsts are fewer and farther between these days.  Today, however, a first.  Her first brow wax and Momma said she did great.

This Mug

I miss this mug but just a note to say how proud I am of her.  She has spent the better part of eight days horse sitting for friends.  She is tired but earned her biggest paycheck yet.  My guess is, she slept in a little today. She's earned that too.

Claiming Cheyenne



The alarm clocks rang early for Isabella and I on this Saturday morning.  It was time to get dressed, hook up the trailer and head south to lay claim to Cheyenne.

Gas n Go



Isabella couldn't resist some Cheyenne love while I filled up the gas tank.

Welcome to Sedona Ridge, Cheyenne








It's an incredibly muddy mess with the melting snow and subsequent rains but Ms. Cheyenne seems not to notice. What a beautiful horse!

Fence Committee




The over the fence introductions could not have gone better.

Chief & Cheyenne









Oh boy!  Love at first site between these two. It's like she belonged on The Ridge.
