New Beginnings

Well we went to see 3 horses over the weekend.  It was hot and humid but the owners were all very nice.  We basically drove all over the Houston area.  Started out in Pearland and ended up in Hempstead.  It was really storming in Houston on Sunday, but we left that behind and it was barely raining in Hempstead. 

We have decided on the 10 year old gray Arabian gelding DC Aristocrat.

He is second level dressage trained and was just a sweetheart.  We are very excited to be bringing him home tomorrow.  Since he is actually trained higher than Sarah we are ready to go right into shows. 

We are back on track.  It's been a long time since we owned a gelding.  I think he will get along fine with are other horses. 

See ya!

Time to Shop!

So it's time to start looking for a replacement horse for Picaboo. Of course we can never replace her, but it's time to look for another horse.

We are going to look at DC Aristocrat this weekend. He is a very nice 10 year old arabian gelding.

We have 2 other mares to look at also. Going to try and schedule that this weekend also.

I personally hate horse shopping. When I was younger I loved it. Couldn't wait to go see all the pretty horses. Now it's not the same, not every horse is a winner or a good fit. You have to kick a lot of tires to find a good one. And it's so hot this time of year.

Anyway - hopefully this will be painless.

See ya!
