Golden Victory

Hi again! :)

Thought I`d post some new photos of Golden Victory (or Victor as we call him).

He`ll be 4 years old this summer and we are very excited to see his offspring this summer to come. If everything goes well, he`ll be the daddy of 8 babies this year!

He is such a sweetheart - so gentle and easy to handle - a real casanova! :)

And as you can see from the pictures, I`m not lying.....my 12 year old son Marcus is leading him as I shoot the pics :)

Two of my fav boys in the whole wide world!!! :)

Some "playing in the snow" pics to follow....sorry - they are a bit dark, not much light here when the sun is hiding.....I`m so looking forward to spring and more daylight!

Taking a snowbath.....

Well, that`s the photos for today :)

Besides this - the latest news from our farm is that 3 of our horses have moved to their new homes.

Katinka has moved to Ellen where she will be her riding and breeding mare, and Victoria and Nikita have moved to Louise in Denmark. I am really sure of, that these horse have come to loving and caring homes and I wish them all the best! :)

Winter!!!!

Okay . So, I'm alive. I know i've been a bad blogger latley. No excuses - just pur lacyness:) The winter and snow gave me som inspiration to a trip outside and a photo shoot. There is 21 horses on my farm now - and I have to say it's a lovely sigth - They are all so different, each of them has its on personality, and things about them I just love.

The snow has given me some trouble keeping them all in the ringt fence.. electrisity works poorly underneat the snow.. and the fist nigth we had 75 cm.. not a thing we're used to her in this part of the countyr. Combined with temperatures down to -17 celcius - vell, i'ts a new expeience, and I'm not shure I'm happy about it.

Anyhow.. hope you enjoy the photo spam :)

Happy new year!!!

First of all I want to wish all of our friends and readers a really HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! :)

I hope you`ve all had the best Christmas time together with your family and loved ones!

I`m sorry for our losy update in the blog these past few months, I guess we`ll have to blame it on the dark and wet autumn combined with a lot of work....

But - now King Winter has visited us and painted the scenery white!

The horses love it and so do I - or at least it is much better than all the rain that usually keeps poring down :)

It is really cold, about -12,5 degrees below zero at this moment....brrrrrr..........(I wonder what happened with the warm climate the politicians keep threatening us with.......?)

Well, well - anyhow I snapped a few pics today and here they come.....

Bess, Tiril and Ronja lined up - Teddy and Robin are playing in the background.
Bess again - she almost looks like a cold bird - round and fluffy :)

Little Sahara with her cute face!

Teddy and Robin playing and enjoying the snow.....they were supposed to go to a new home, but their future owners backed out due to personal things, so I guess they are still for sale to loving and caring homes........

Teddy - mummys sweatheart....I`m in love with this little, black and hairy fellow :)

I not sure I am ready to part with him....I`m a little worried that he will have to stay here with me for a while..........;)

Emily - BIG and beautiful! I`m really excited to see here foal with Corny.

She is due in the beginning of May......

And here is little Victoria.

She is a really nice silver dapple girl and she will soon leave for her new home in Denmark.

I hope they will be pleased with this chunky girl :)

Well, that`s it for today - I will try to blog more often than these last months.......

Soon spring is here and the first foals will arrive - I`m so looking forward to see what`s hiding in the mares`bellies!

Crossing my fingers for some extra special babies this year too :)

Hope you`ve enjoyed!

Teddy and Robin are growing up...

Just an little update on what`s happening here.

Sorry for not blogging much lately - but the autumn is here and so is the rain and mudd.....not easy to get nice pics this time of year.

Well - I can tell you that Merlin, Luna and Viking has moved to their new loving families.

I wish them the best of luck and hope they will be happy with their new "Vestlandsbandens" additions! :)

Underneath a few pics of Robin and Teddy - both soon to be 1 1/2 year old.

They will move to their new family later this autumn.....

Have a happy fall! :)

Golden Viking 3 months old

Here he is again - the little charmer :)

Just had to snap a few shots of him now that he is almost out of his foal coat.

He has shed in high speed, and out popped a beautiful silver dapple colt!

He is so cute and adorable, and really friendly.

He is not a little baby anymore :)
I think he will grow up to be a really handsome boy someday! :)

He is for sale and searching for a loving and friendly future home ;)

Here together with "aunty" Irina 2 years old.

Hope you`ve enjoyed!~
