Lyn, I haven't been around this forum as long as a lot of you, and I've never had the pleasure of meeting you; but this isn't the first time I've seen you give one of your own horses to a deserving person. I absolutely believe you deserve an award for your incredible generosity and thoughtfulness!

So........please accept this award in the spirit in which it is given!

[SIZE=18pt]LYN.....THIS IS FOR YOU!!! [/SIZE]

Congrats to all of the winners!!! :aktion033: Your essays were wonderful!

:

I said, the other day, that I was going to let the kids post to this. I told them both that I would sit down and they could write under my screen name. However, both are feeling pretty overwhelmed with Lyn's generosity, and have decided to address her personally for the time being. They're SO excited, and for once, they're actually talking to each other like FRIENDS! I can't describe what this has done for both of them, but will show you all with pictures when Redi gets here.

Thank you SO much, Lyn! I'll be calling you in a while, just waiting to make sure you get thru supper so I don't interrupt.

With sincere gratitude to a wonderful lady!

Lyn, give the transporter my number in case he needs anything, I'm about 1/2 way. The kids must be SO excited. Who is hauling?

 

[Scoopiedoo]

The kids are SO excited!!!!!!!!! :aktion033: I took them yesterday afternoon to the feed/tack store and I think they bought one of everything for their new boy!

He's got a brand new halter and lead, a feed dish, brushes, hoof pick, a new water pail, shedding blade, combs--curry, etc...

Debs, he is coming home with Greg Wilson(Tracy's hubby). He made the trip for us :aktion033: THANK YOU, GREG!!

:

Ed spent time yesterday morning getting Redi's space prepared for him, Mikaela's been sick, so couldn't be out in the cold helping, but both were eager to spend their own money, buying things for their boy! The weather is improving by the day here for the next few days, and Mikaela is VERY happy about that as she'll be able to go out and be with him when he comes. I will take LOTS of pictures when he arrives and will start a new post on the picture forum to share their meeting with you all!

Thank you, again, Lyn! Redi will be SO LOVED here.
