We have boarders! Yahoo! Our first boarder is the fabulous
Eliza Farrell. Eliza is a fun, talented young lady that has so much going for
her. Maybe that is part of the reason she is surrounded by so many handsome
men?

Meet Ardie, Peter, and Trace. They are all thoroughbreds and
are all so well behaved! Absolute gentlemen! Eliza does eventing and
works with a Thoroughbred adoption program, New Vocations. She will be bringing
three more horses in September, all of which I can’t wait to meet!
Our second boarder came yesterday with her impressive
gelding, D’Artarian. Although I just met his owner, Katie, for the first time yesterday, she is a very sweet, hard working girl who was a joy to be around. Sonny thought the same thing of D'Art, who he absolutely adored and is thrilled to have as a pasture mate!

The fun:
Things have been awesome at the farm! Sonny LOVES his little slice of heaven! It's so great to pull up every morning and see him already outside :). What makes it even better: he hasn't been going to the bathroom inside! I taught him to pee in the pea gravel and he poos outside. So I rarely have to clean his stall now. Major win!
Eliza, Katie and I went on a trail ride yesterday and had an absolute blast! We rode down to the paylake, over around a horse farm, and through a path into a corn field where we found a cool, old barn. Definitely pony pal status ;). We had a really great time and Sonny even enjoyed a good gallop on the way home! So much fun!

The exciting:
Things are really starting to fall into place at Shady Acres Farm! Out fencing is done, our hoop bar is up, major work is being done on the bathroom, lounge, etc. and the stalls are looking great! We currently have the four boarded horses (Adie, Peter, Trace, and D'Art), Sonny, and a little mare named Ginger (more about her soon). Tomorrow we have an older guy coming who belongs to an absolutely wonderful couple that just got into horses. Then in September, Eliza is brining three more horses and we have a half-arab coming.
I also feel like I am confident enough to do my level 3 online and freestyle DVDs. I will probably be uploading those soon, so stay tuned!
