[a mini dream come true]

It didn't work for me Diane, but I know it has to be adorable. She is such a cutie. What day is Joshua's birthday? I have forgotten. Dalton's is the 19th.

 

[LittleBittyBritches]

Good girl Odette, lets get this show on the road! Izzy puppies are so cute!

Diane, that is so special! How wonderful!

 

[a mini dream come true]

How wonderful. It did finally load for me Diane and of course they are adorable. What a special gift.

 

[Eagle]

Oh Diane what a wonderful gift, I bet it brought tears to your eyes. I just love the way Josh is entertaining Rachel whilst daddy is perhaps making dinner

How is Katy getting on? I pray for her everyday.

I took some pics of all my hard work so that you could tell me what a good girl I have been

of course none of the men in my house will even notice I was outside unless they miss a meal

I also found a couple of videos of Odette's last foal and Depinto. The quality is really bad cos Matteo took them and he was 10 at the time so I apologise.

Morning Renee

wow your paddocks look great! the kids look very happy

n thanks for sharing the videos

so cute! I wish Dipinto had stayed chestnut but he is still gorgeous!! can't wait till we see videos of your new babies!!

 

[Eagle]

I agree Cassie, wasn't he striking when he was red

 

[AnnaC]

Morning all!

Your set up looks great Renee and the girls look very settled.

And Matteo did a great job with those videos too.

Diane how wonderful that you had that long chat with Katy, is she managing to find the time for her studies?

 

[Eagle]

Thanks Anna, did you notice in the first video how Odette's baby went to nurse under Britt and she didn't say anything? Luckily she didn't have any milk

 

[cassie]

I agree Cassie, wasn't he striking when he was red

he is still gorgeous Renee, but yes he would have been stunning if he hadn't of greyed out...

Thanks Anna, did you notice in the first video how Odette's baby went to nurse under Britt and she didn't say anything? Luckily she didn't have any milk

oh haha it confused me for a minute when I saw that Renee LOL cheeky baby!! who was that foal? did you sell her/him?

 

[cassie]

Oh what wonderful videos!!!! Matteo did a great job with them, and yes, Dipinto was a gorgeous, rich color when he was little. He is still beautiful!!

Yes, it was wonderful talking with Katy. She IS finding time to study, which is so important, and she is "enjoying" her deployment as much as possibile, saying the people she's with are very nice. The "ladies" got together yesterday and had a "spa" day -- setting up a meeting room as a Mother's Day Spa Room. Apparently, one of the nurses there had a massage table, they made a make-shift foot massage/soak, did their nails together, all with "spa" music playing in the background. A good time was had by all -- enjoying some "down" time and time together talking, etc.

how lovely for them all Diane

what a special time, when they would be missing home. I bet they had a lovely time

 

[AnnaC]

Oh that must have been fabulous for them Diane!

Yes Renee, I did notice the cheeky little chap LOL!!

 

[LittleRibbie]

Renee, your place is just beautiful...its so peaceful looking. Matteo did a wonderful job as cameraman...but have to admit..he did have great subject matter to film.They are all cutie pies!!

This is sort of hijacking but Im a bit nosey.....are all your neighbors farmers in some way....does everyone have that much property....its all just so lovely. I consider where i live sort of farm country but its not too far ( 10 min. ) to shopping and lots of stores. I think where I live is pretty peaceful....but then i see your pictures and drool....well dream LOL

Im looking forward to all your foal pictures soon!!

 

[Eagle]

Heidi it was great to chat to you and I love your accent too

It made me laugh when you said I sound royal

If only you could have seen me in my old track suit

My set up is similar to yours,we live in a small farming village about 10 mins from town. We are at the feet on the mountains hence the heavy winters. here is a link to some pics of our town

Cassie Odette's last foal was sold at 2 weeks old to a man that does shows with Andalusian stallions, he fell in love with Eagle and bought the foal to train for his children, they do small shows with their dad. I am hoping to go and see him soon so I will get lots of pics

They phoned the other day to say how happy they are and what a gorgeous boy he has grown up to be so I can't wait to go and see him.

 

[LittleRibbie]

Awesome photos.....now i want to make some spaghetti...love it!! Thanks

Well Ive been on here long enough gotta go do some work. hubbie came home with a new ( well used...bought off CL ) Kawasaki 4x4 thingy for a new poop tractor for me yesterday...I love it....who needs roses. they and jewelery are so overrated anyway!! My old poop tractor is ready for the grave yard so this is awesome!! Enjoy your day!

 

[AnnaC]

Those pics are brilliant Renee - I just love all the old buildings, but it is the country views that are my favourite! I'm no good in towns LOL!! Our nearest town is approx 16 miles away and I will shoot in and out again as fast as I can, about every 10 days to do a stock up. I have tried a "just pop into town for a wander around" many times, but after an hour I can't wait to escape!! Our village shop is approx 10 minutes away and carries all the things you would find in a supermarket, albeit several pennies more expensive - but then the 16 miles to town and the 16 miles back again is pretty expensive in petrol too, plus the time spent away from my beloved mountain! LOL!!

So do we have any updates on the lovely girls??

 

[Eagle]

I have had the most frightening experince I am still shaking and crying. I had the vet out for Eagles teeth and I think he must have lifted his head too much cos he past out and started having convulsions. I tried to lay on him to stop him hurting himself and the vet just stood there shocked! My poor baby

what is wrong with the darn vets in this country! Once it was over eagle was tired but seemed ok, he started shaking but I guess that is normal after what he went through. I am so upset that I put my poor baby through that.

Has anyone else ever had it happen? Will he suffer any consequences?

I just can't stop crying.

 

[LittleBittyBritches]

Oh poor Eagle, and poor you. No experience from that hear, but I pray it never happens again.

 

[LittleRibbie]

Gosh, you dont need this crap now!! Im so sorry. Was he under anesthtesia (sp) What the heck could have happened. You poor thing...poor Eagle. Did the vet give you any idea what could cause it? you mentioned head lifted too much...ok Im lost...are you saying that it was like a head rush...Im confused..sorry..but remember Im new at this sort of stuff. Was the vet working on his teeth at the time or was it when he was done? Im hoping you will come on and tell us he is back to normal but I sure would be interrested in what others think may have caused this.
