3 young boys

Just some new shots of the boys - they are all 2 years old this summer.
They are having a good time in the warm and beautiful weather we`ve had here the last week, and so am I :)
So, sorry they are not cleaned out ;)
Well, hope you enjoy our 3 diamonds in the rough!
Simply Red - he has developed a lot the last few months....
La Coste - a big and handsome fellow!
Victor - he already thinks he is a real man (read; the man) and wants to be the boss among the 3.....


Come on!
Let`s go!!!

They are playing a lot, pretending and trying to behave like adult stallions....

Poor, little Red - stuck in the middle :)

Family trip

Yesterday we figured out that we wanted to take a family trip... and sleep outside. The wether is so warm - I'ts nice to stay outside in the night.
Thinka is a superb driving horse. Steady as a rock she pulls the waggon. Her little girl Betty Boop has already learnd to walk nicely on al lead atatched to mom. A perfect way for her to get used to the traffic. After the second car passed us, she was calm as her mother.

A proud 5 years old girl training on her driving skills.
Take a close look at the photo... The dog is in the waggon. He and Linda got lots of treats on the trip;)We brougt Linda allong aswell. That way Maia coud have a ride to (okay.. som mum had to have a little trip om her back to..)

We spent the night in "horse heaven" A large field, with yummy gras for the horses, and a barbaque for the people and the dog. In the morning Linda woke us all... she had been snoking arround in the bags containing the food. And was trying to get the carrots out of the plastic bag;)

A really nice trip... Next time I hope that Elisabeth and family will join us.. and hopfully there will be two horses pulling the waggon then. (Just need a new waggon and a pair tack)



And talking about Linda..
I've been taking a closer look on her color. At first I was told she was red. But when you look closer on her legs, they are black. So... she is a bay horse. But wath about her mane and tail then??
Well - I had to send in a DNA test to be shoure....
Linda is a bay and SILVER colored mare!!!!
This means that her foal to Ickie has a good chance of beeing a silver dappled beauty!!!
