Horse Pictures...and other Randomness

I rode Snip this morning. As it was cool and breezy, he decided that he wasn't going to be the most cooperative. (That and he also needs his feet trimmed and he needs to be wormed--both items on my to-do list.)

He bucked on me once, but I slammed him down and backed him up as is my habit before he really got going. Ornery critter...anyway...I thought ya'll might like to see some pictures of my ever growing horse. He no longer looks like a scrawny pony, but like a real horse. So...enjoy! :)

Adjusting the reins. I was unware Savannah was taking pictures at this point.
Picture
Isn't he a good looking horse? :) Of course, I may just be prejudiced...
Picture
Talking to him--with my feet I believe...
Picture
"Aw, c'mon, Racheal! I don't want to back up!"
Picture
That is almost his innocent face...not quite, though.
Picture
I really like this one...even though Snip looks a tad grumpy. :D
Picture
Yeah...he really needs that second set of ears! Not... :D
Picture
"Can we be done now?? I'm tired of having my picture taken!"
I'm still wearing my old worn out boots to ride in...sometime when I take my feet out of the stirrups and ride like that, I feel like my boots are falling off! But, I might as well keep wearing them until they completely fall apart. Besides, they are still fairly comfortable. (Good boots, those.)

Mama Cat has four kittens...one pur black like her, two gray and whites, and one black and white. So far, I have only managed to catch the black one and one of the gray and white ones. I have thereby determined that at least half the litter are male. :) These kittens are even scaredier (not a real word) than the last lot.

Kittens nurse in the oddest positions...mother kitty is sitting on her haunches while baby there stuck his nose between her front legs.
Well, anyway, I'd better get off of here. I have work to do. I intend, Lord willing, to at least get a good start on putting a barb-wire fence up at our place. The chain-link has been continually going down hill and now it has reached a point where I can't just kick it back into position anymore. After talking with the folks, it was determined to put a barb-wire fence up just inside the chain-link. I think I'll give it a good go at taking the chain-link down once I have the fence up. I'm not sure exactly how to take the chain-link down, but I don't imagine it'll be too difficult to find out.

I was going to do this last week, but what between the rain and then me not feeling well--it just didn't happen. I'm not complaining, we needed the rain and I managed to get another pair of socks done. :)

See ya later then!

    The Middle Kid

    I chose to title this blog "The Adventures of a Middle Kid" because that is exactly what I'll be detailing (mostly). I chose 'kid' over any other word, like 'girl' (I am the middle girl so it also would have worked) or 'child'
    (since I am no longer exactly a child).

    I am a middle kid and I will always be a middle kid--even when I'm 80!
