What Hobbies do you have

[Filipowicz Farm]

What else do you enjoy doing besides showing breeding or raising horses. I took up scrapbooking and even made a book about our farm and horses and have taken it to the shows for people to look at.I love to garden but dont do as much when it comes to being on knees to plant like I use to . Have a bad knee. I made rag quilts and enjoy that. I make most of them durning mare stare . I have made some with a horse theme and have them on our web site for sale. My husband Walt and I do bird watching and have come across 55 different birds since moving here. Use to do a big garden but have cut back on that . Mostly enjoy our horses , dogs and cats and of course each other. What other things do you do other then horses?

I enjoy crafting.....including but not limited to melt and pour soap and decoupage. Other things I enjoy doing other than driving my horses or showing them would be activities with my dogs and reading historical novels.

Oh...and almost forgot...any kind of photo editing, projects on the computer and dabbling in photography....dogs, horses and nature.

Kayaking, I love it. Peaceful. Too bad the lakes and rivers are all iced in 5 months a year.

Reading, anything and everything

Baking, LOL does not go well with my Weight Watchers but I am trying out new recipes that are adjusted to fat free.

Grandkids. just love them

Hiking Never thought I would start to hike mountains in my 50's

Other than the horses I do woodburning. I don't get to do as much as I used to since I started really working (ICK!). I enjoy doing jigsaw and crossword puzzles too.

I don't have horses anymore, although I still love them.

I did do the breyer thing, but have decided to sell all those (about 250) in the fall because I just don't have the room (or desire) to display them anymore. I was also making halters and tack for them, but haven't done that for a while...so now... I love tying flies (for fly fishing), I bow hunt (when in season of course), I love to boat, fish, and camp so I can't wait for the weather to break...we do that every weekend after April. I also bowl in a league (winter months only). In the winter months, I love to snow ski and snowboard and ice fish.

There are actually tons of things I enjoy doing...just don't have time to do it all!

 

[MeadowRidge Farm]

Ohh, I have so many hobbies..I use to have a ceramic craft and gift shop, so I still do some ceramics for myself. I quilt, do scrapbooking, stamping cards, reading, soaping, baking, dried floral arrangemants, especially x-mas and weaths, our aquariums. I also have a few collections, of Steiff Teddy Bears, Antique bears, antique coffee grinders, Breyer horses, Charming Tails, and any primitive antiques. But first and formost would be my grandkids and and our Furkids.

Painting and photography - hoping to add these to the business (my husband already has his photography as part and I want to include mine as well)

Wreath making - A favorite hobby of mine

Reading, writing, hiking, gardening

 

[Reble]

Great topic Frannie, going to see your colt this weekend, that arrived here in Ontario.

Well, other than my horses.

I breed Shih Tzu's and do web sites, photo edits, banners and of course

my best hobby is being around Olivia as much as I can she is already 6 months.

 

[SampleMM]

This is an interesting thread. In the past I've quilted, knitted, done ceramics, dried floral arrangements, & wooden folk art. This winter has been long and hard and I've been thinking it would be nice to start a "fun" project rather than clean.

My house steals all of my time. If I'm not cleaning everyday, I'd be overwhelmed.

 

[TheCaseFamily00]

I love to dig around in my flower beds,i'v also got garden ponds. I like to sew,have to be in the mood though.

 

[Alex]

Hmmm other than the horses, huh.

Well my biggest hobbies are reading, photography, i really want to get into more web design, its really fun. Photoshoping too.

I love reading young adult novels, favorite auther is definatly Lois Lowry.

 

[FairytailGlennMinis]

I guess I am big on "hobbies"...I can't sit still with empty hands so I:

-make beaded jewelry (especialy enjoy natural stones

-sometimes work with ceramics (stepmother has a shop)

-paint/pastel custom Breyer horses (haven't done this in awhile)

-read (A LOT)

-gardening (starting back up with my tea and culinary herbs now along with seeds for the flower garden

and my newest hobbies are:

-decorating my new house in bits and pieces

-belly dancing -- yes, really. It is not what most people think of when they hear that at all. It is super exercise, good for the joints and a LOT of fun.

After my husband had a sudden heart attack and was diagnosed with congestive heart failure at 37 years old, well, our whole world changed and the hobby-type things just didn't matter. Now 8 months later we are getting back to "normal" things and I am loving getting back into my hobbies and seeing him to back to his!

I love spending time with my dogs and reading. I also like tv too much!!! But of course, we all know the major hobby around my house

 

[minih]

I love to read and if it is a good book I devour it. I love my dogs and we as a family go out about once a week to a nice restaurant. I collect snowmen, the computer room is devoted to them and the rest of the house in horsey items.

 

[Minimor]

Not much time for anything but horses around here, not with working full time too, but I enjoy writing, reading, gardening, photography.
