7 years old? yeah right!

January 1 marks the birthday for all Thoroughbreds according to the Jockey Club, though I don't really "celebrate" Lucy's birthday until the real deal later in the month. However, we did go out and have a snow ride this morning. I didn't lunge or warm her up at all because the footing wasn't that great outside so she was a little spooky and kind of hot, but we got through it and I had fun riding in the snow.

So Happy unofficial Birthday to Honolulu, who is now 7 going on 2, and Happy Birthday to all our Thoroughbred friends.


WOW do I need a tan!

    Aww, Lucy missed you! You have more snow than we do (KY) but like you I rode this morning. Well it was more of an amble really. Welcome home and Happy New Year!

    If it makes you feel any better, Ozzy didn't grow a brain til he turned 10.

      It was about 30 degrees but I had just finished cleaning stalls so I was really warm! By the time I untacked her and put everything away, I was freezing again.

    Oh wow. LOVE that last under saddle picture. Who needs a tan when you're both gorgeous. (And what bridle is that? So pretty.)

    Charlie's birthday isn't until May either so we're definitely not counting it yet!
