These are a couple of weeks ago, but just got around to getting them on the puter ;)

Adjusting my girth... see how crazy she is? lol ;)

She actually spooked! I didn't think she ever would! LOL You can see it caught me off guard! But this was her spook: trot off quickly to the other end of the arena! haha ;)

Tomarrow my best friend is coming to ride, and so Calista will go on her first trail ride, I"m very excited ;) Nothing hard, just a short, very easy, well groomed path at a walk. But I can't wait ;)

Jessi

 Awww Calista is growing up. She looks very calm and happy!

Calista looks so good! Hard to believe she was the bag of bones she was when Jen got a hold of her! Good job!

Wow, she's pretty hot and wild, LOL.  Congrats, she's looking great!!!  I am constantly mystified on how you keep all your horses in such great condition with so many in a small space, you should get the horse momma of the year award -- and be an example to all those who neglect their horses using the excuse, "oh, there's just too many of them and I don't have room for X fancy facility..."

Thanks guys! :) I love this little girl so much! :)

And Solaris, thanks a lot, that means a lot to me :) My critters are my family, I always want them happy and healthy... and I can't WAIT until they can have pastures to roam all day long! :)

Jessi

I want to get her a new sidepull, this one works ok but I'm not crazy about it... so what color do you guys think would look good on her?

I'll be ordering from Sunset Halters, most of you know who that is, but for those who don't, http://www.sunsethalters.com/

Here's the sidepulls: http://www.sunsethalters.com/sidepull.php  which type should I get? And which color? I think I'd like to add the browband, I like the way they look ;)

Jessi

Wow, Jessi, Calista is really doing well! But I think she may be too wild for you to handle Hehehehe!  Let's see, which sidepull... well, which type of rope you get just depends on how much "bite" you want it to have.  The more hard headed type horse will need the thinner rope because it will exert more pressure. You know your horse and can make that decision best I think she might look good in a bright blue or even a burgundy color.  Let us know what you choose! LOVE Sunset Halters!

Hehe, she's a wild one, huh? :) Had a GREAT time on our trail ride!!! It was funny, she was following Laura on Ren, but she was walking faster, so got ahead.... then you could see, she was wondering just how the heck she got in front, what happened to Ren??? And let him get in front again ;) But later on she went in front, behind, didn't matter to her. She did another "spook" of trotting haha ;)

I'll have to take a look at the different sidepulls again and decide which type. She's really good and I dont' think she needs much bite. I like the one that is pink/burgandy (I forget the names), always though Radi would look excellent in that one :) So maybe blue (also like purple on her?)

Thanks! :)

Jessi

ARGH!!! Jessi!!!!!! Now you know I'll have to get my tush in gear and get working with Nova now!!! Can I use the fact that there is still snow in the arena (deep and hard on top) as an excuse?

But besides the fact that I'm now lagging way behind.... She's looking good!! Congrats on getting her going, and very happy to hear she was really good on her trail ride.

LOL, sure, use the snow ;) But what's my excuse with Radi? ;)

Jessi

Haha. Uhm.... Because she's black... And would she would get to hot working in the sun... See? I'm great at excuses!

LOL Oooh I like it ;)

Jessi

Jessi,

Calista has similar coloring to Mystic. Blue or black or combo of the two would look good. Mystic's saddles and bridles are black and his halter, in the sig is blue. Congrats on the riding and the good trail ride.

Frank

Thanks! :) Blue is one of my favorite colors ;) (second to burgandy)... so maybe I'll go with the blue :)

Jessi

Jessi,

Just look at Mystic's face shot in my sig. I'd say blue will work. LOL!!!!
