She is only three but such a big helper - if she keeps this great attitude she is sure to excel in life. We are so glad we have such great neighbors with such wonderful and loving children. This week she came over and helped me and Ben with planting the last three trees ... and then she did a most precious thing - she said "Grammy, I have to pick some flowers for mama!" and off she went picking Indian Blankets that grow wild in our pasture. She was more than willing to share her discoveries with Dede and Lady and they were all to ready to see what she had to share. Gracie - you are a true blessing to your parents, us and all who know you.Linda "Grammy" Woodshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10346911289467572186noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4360796782421496425.post-39402938590809636212009-06-17T12:39:00.000-07:002009-06-17T13:14:25.200-07:00ABBIE'S RIBBONS at her first Miniature Horse Show!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaHj8xC_Ge7pvQO7RS5Of2gxf6a7qQmwFEqWYfvsZbyx9xFO7Fn6qTzim-LNyYJxJ9BeuC4lluCDB5Y-NS9vrIFsFOierwBAEbs4H-oCQkzXgr1wJDxt1O6d5IF49gRHR8bEx2L4O_gvM/s1600-h/IMG_7819.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaHj8xC_Ge7pvQO7RS5Of2gxf6a7qQmwFEqWYfvsZbyx9xFO7Fn6qTzim-LNyYJxJ9BeuC4lluCDB5Y-NS9vrIFsFOierwBAEbs4H-oCQkzXgr1wJDxt1O6d5IF49gRHR8bEx2L4O_gvM/s320/IMG_7819.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348392114218738306" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgb7aKZDRMVBZU_6pFtPs90PK6kJ2qkx90Nh1qpp-0km7YrCRjrYWlUQBARHTwJ4HXQ_r_OVsDr6czJj7CXmsVLuvchXDA9wZWBsiA6FtJklo3D99KNOODGmceptDe1Vxh13oSwqeJ9sg4/s1600-h/IMG_7817.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgb7aKZDRMVBZU_6pFtPs90PK6kJ2qkx90Nh1qpp-0km7YrCRjrYWlUQBARHTwJ4HXQ_r_OVsDr6czJj7CXmsVLuvchXDA9wZWBsiA6FtJklo3D99KNOODGmceptDe1Vxh13oSwqeJ9sg4/s320/IMG_7817.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348392108911625362" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAosezjBURoZeMlgHJc3ULpQmJsC9bb6cPtDbMSSu7q3mQDL-Z4i-xzopXnp_TgOh7nsjRXr9zvfRtx_EtOZstYXCBytH4EN97j_nMB09VJhNkh44tJQevBgR17A_f_D9JM-mLk0dhr-E/s1600-h/IMG_7820.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAosezjBURoZeMlgHJc3ULpQmJsC9bb6cPtDbMSSu7q3mQDL-Z4i-xzopXnp_TgOh7nsjRXr9zvfRtx_EtOZstYXCBytH4EN97j_nMB09VJhNkh44tJQevBgR17A_f_D9JM-mLk0dhr-E/s320/IMG_7820.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348392102250064818" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMeocD0DuueqE9LE0nEIO5EvetfqPBv0lFkESjU_aQMLWXexbY1pFW-ewFE_UsU8jY6fuA6EIEbNaQCE_gKuJ9FaiGixsl1ZqHafJbtY0jD8IDzLJ4AwaB8pzCcwnZQIpOdGY-ZWT7Dks/s1600-h/IMG_7807.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMeocD0DuueqE9LE0nEIO5EvetfqPBv0lFkESjU_aQMLWXexbY1pFW-ewFE_UsU8jY6fuA6EIEbNaQCE_gKuJ9FaiGixsl1ZqHafJbtY0jD8IDzLJ4AwaB8pzCcwnZQIpOdGY-ZWT7Dks/s320/IMG_7807.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348392095177921122" /></a><br />We were so proud of Abbie - she is a quick learner and is so willing. Her plans were to have a "big" horse but since being introduced to the mini's she has changed her mind - at least for now, so hopefully soon Abbie will have one of her very own. But back to the show in Tyler --- Abbie placed fourth showing Lady in Jr Mares and second showing Dede in Sr Mares. We still are working on getting the horses in better shape for show but they did pretty good ... and let me say again, "Abbie, you did great"! We are so excited about sharing this experience with you and your mom, Lisa. Next show coming up is in San Antonio.

She has volunteered to help in the barn several times and has taken to helping with the mini's. So much so that this Saturday she will go with us to our Tyler show and join in the youth competition showing both Dede and Lady! Below are some pictures of her working the mini's but of her playing and controlling the new addition to the barn. Abby is doing a wonderful job and is a quick learner. We are glad to have her to share the horses with. We may just have to adopt her!

We've had them all three since they were weanlings - just 4 1/2, 5 1/2 and 7 months old ... they are all three now. But they were herd bound and would not allow another horse into the group. After realizing that I was not going to be capable of handling Rascal and Belle not being rideable we knew what must be done. So, after talking with a wonderful lady, Krysta and her husband - we made a deal for them to take both of them so at least they could remain together somewhat. Belle will become pasture mate to a 23 yr old mare and Rascal will get to do something we wanted him to be trained for all along - barrels. Yep, Krysta rides barrels. They have promised to stay in touch and said we are welcome to come visit them anytime. So, even though we were sad to let them leave we are happy for them to have a place where their presence can mean something. We've posted a few pictures of them leaving and at their new home - oh and of Krysta on Rascal before they left our home. <br />Congratulations Krysta and Brad - enjoy and take good care of our babies - we know you will.Linda "Grammy" Woodshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10346911289467572186noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4360796782421496425.post-3516994141213687032009-03-20T13:41:00.000-07:002009-03-20T13:44:02.536-07:00Spring has brought other first moments ...This week has hosted some really pretty weather and being it was spring break - the Roots made their way out to the country and the kids got to ride Buck ... it was his first time to have children ride him - we were so proud of him - he did great like he'd done it lot's of times before!!!! For safety reasons since it was Buck's first time with children we wanted to take precautions so Jim used a lunge line with him except Brooklyn quickly showed her skills (since she has had riding lessons) and she rode Buck on her own! Nathan and Corban did great as well and it won't be long till they are pros at it too!!! Great going kids - hope you come back to ride him again soon.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCgeErFDscULylHTefDELC7zQxN2V61xBkIotlkFOu9Om7WYENQ593mS1rklFvFU-GG96behm0i6zCXD9QIl14zyhf0TA2CJEN73iAa6QTCGANgeG76YFMhcP-2SfQrw4OrJgxQjDyXtU/s1600-h/image003.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCgeErFDscULylHTefDELC7zQxN2V61xBkIotlkFOu9Om7WYENQ593mS1rklFvFU-GG96behm0i6zCXD9QIl14zyhf0TA2CJEN73iAa6QTCGANgeG76YFMhcP-2SfQrw4OrJgxQjDyXtU/s320/image003.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5315373264196207746" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZXHkopsTqLSiXZd_qMsuowCdFruGV9iJ9yV9DQniDW40MGy7FdS7SJl__Z1rHsJNA9-CmaQ6Aq-53lrFyrv2WccnNlwHSShbWWLKd8bqx5yhQgaMx9py00YYPyVqLNvDzgq-DlCb-Eqs/s1600-h/image002.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZXHkopsTqLSiXZd_qMsuowCdFruGV9iJ9yV9DQniDW40MGy7FdS7SJl__Z1rHsJNA9-CmaQ6Aq-53lrFyrv2WccnNlwHSShbWWLKd8bqx5yhQgaMx9py00YYPyVqLNvDzgq-DlCb-Eqs/s320/image002.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5315373260307432162" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_RbKqC4qnofAMnuu87DLLd6i4tljEIShFc7AsYRtjO96RSE_Bq0SBYjbaXIFwzMVJEXPRlgRjUWaonBIFxZzBjWYvnV7unZkxkrzwjHWxloEOta7llP6f7ADrYFnWfaszFUoUU8Q4_Ng/s1600-h/image001.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_RbKqC4qnofAMnuu87DLLd6i4tljEIShFc7AsYRtjO96RSE_Bq0SBYjbaXIFwzMVJEXPRlgRjUWaonBIFxZzBjWYvnV7unZkxkrzwjHWxloEOta7llP6f7ADrYFnWfaszFUoUU8Q4_Ng/s320/image001.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5315373255802218514" /></a>Linda "Grammy" Woodshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10346911289467572186noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4360796782421496425.post-79841276869494722022009-03-20T13:08:00.000-07:002009-03-20T13:26:08.044-07:00Show Season is gearing up ....As spring is popping out all around - the horses began to blow their coats ... and suddenly it's time to clip the mini's in preparation for show season. It is amazing how different a horse looks with their winter coat and when they are first clipped - the difference is almost like different horses! After a few weeks of re-growth the normal color reappears. I'll give you, as best as I can since we didn't think of before and after pictures - starting first with Dede now and before, then Lady now and before, - then here's a picture of our little "mama to be" Carmel - will she make it to July??? I'm thinking a June baby!

It tends to get lost so maybe it isn't the luckiest time to have a birthday. I can say that from experience since my birthday is on Valentines' Day but this is not about me ... this is about Christmas birthdays, a co-worker's birthday is on Christmas Eve, my own father's birthday was the day after Christmas as is my boss' mother's birthday the day after Christmas ... and very special little girl, that I get to borrow and do grandmother things with, our little neighbor, <span style="font-weight:bold;"><span style="font-style:italic;">Gracie</span></span>, just turned three the day after Christmas.

She wanted to know what the looked like. <br />Finally, he tore a sheet out of his new magazine on which was printed the map of the country. Tearing it into small pieces, he gave it to and said, 'Go into the other room and see if you can put this together. This will show you our whole country today.' <br />After a few minutes, returned and handed him the map, correctly fitted and taped together. The father was surprised and asked how she had finished so quickly. 'Oh,' she said, 'on the other side of the paper is a picture of Jesus . When I got all of Jesus back where He belonged, then our country just came together.'Linda "Grammy" Woodshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10346911289467572186noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4360796782421496425.post-1354244747114400482008-10-13T08:27:00.000-07:002008-10-13T08:42:13.941-07:00Buck in TrainingWell as most of you know - Buck is away in training.

He is a quarter horse also but a really big one --- in this picture the tall one is obviously to the left and Buck is to the right - it is hard to really see well but look at the difference in the height of their rear ends and the fact that the big horse takes up most of his stall whereas Buck doesn't!

Lady's grooming was addressed today also. The sun had done a number on her mane and tail - so we freshened them up - course there isn't much we could do about the body color now but clip her - you can really see her spots! She is mostly buckskin not white much to our surprise. She is now protected with slinky's from head to tail :) and looks like a little silver medieval horse!

She took to it very well only giving a slight bucking a couple of times. Our trainer, Bethany Franke of the Circle K Miniatures, said we will do this several times - where we work with her walking beside her before actually getting into the cart. It is very important to have great control over her before mounting the cart as you don't have the leverage once sitting in the cart as you do standing on the ground. But I don't think we are going to have much trouble with her in that regards since she has taken to this so well but of course we will work hard to be sure that she is safe as well as us - after all one day we will be taking precious cargo onboard -- our grandkids!!!Linda "Grammy" Woodshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10346911289467572186noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4360796782421496425.post-10742288898966997342008-09-15T15:22:00.001-07:002008-09-15T15:36:40.379-07:00AMHA WORLD SHOW<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvwn5VxGlOc3xDow-Urla0dnQcNlF1YGhmyk2eKmOb3ocSPMhLEuccguiFux7E6rcbBzedXgp6P_KYq5cl4bz79nMCRl00aKE6_NGRvY6jXgbosxtJLQD3ws1Sh3TkPnOsSqpsWWqtECo/s1600-h/amhaworld.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvwn5VxGlOc3xDow-Urla0dnQcNlF1YGhmyk2eKmOb3ocSPMhLEuccguiFux7E6rcbBzedXgp6P_KYq5cl4bz79nMCRl00aKE6_NGRvY6jXgbosxtJLQD3ws1Sh3TkPnOsSqpsWWqtECo/s200/amhaworld.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246377347768962738" /></a><br /> This is it guys/gals!!! World is here and we have been working hard and preparing Lady to go! Hopefully we will have photo's of her to post next weekend as she goes to get all prettied up for it!!! Papa Jim will show Lady early on Friday morning - October 3rd - if you can be there to cheer them on we'd love it ... otherwise I'll be posting pictures after the event. We will be at the show from Wed, Oct 1 through probably Sun, Oct 5th the final day. If any of the grandkids want to go (like Emily went with me last year) let us know and we will see what can be worked out. Thurs & Fri nights we will actually be staying in a hotel over in Ft Worth to be nearby. Let us know if you want to meet up with us.Linda "Grammy" Woodshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10346911289467572186noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4360796782421496425.post-2845398088433631602008-08-25T20:00:00.000-07:002008-08-26T15:01:52.638-07:00Warning - graphic pictures!!!

Wow!!! That is so hard to believe. For those of you who did not know - we hand raised Jack - his mother died when he was born. Bottle feedings ever two hours - baths like his mother was cleaning him! We carried him with us when we went out - one of my favorite memories of him as a baby was when we went out to eat with Gina and family ... their first time to see Jack ... we had him in a carrier much like a duffle bag and she had her hand stuck in there - well, most of the time and the waitress would look at her as she passed and Brooklyn would smile her little bashful smile.
