Jennie proudly sitting on her new friend, Pal's Keemah Victory. They had a wonderful ride Saturday while her dad rode their other super curly, Agape, for the first time. Sad to see Keemah leave as she is the last daughter of Palladins, but thankfully we will be able to retain her foal that she should have next year!

Our newest additions to the stables!! Holley, above, was imported from the UK! Super tall for a Gypsy Vanner, over 15.2hh!! She is trained to ride and drive, an excellent addition to the stables.

Holley's daughter, Kiandra is a DIRECT Lion King daughter! Wowsers!! And she is started under saddle. And she is already over 15hh!!

Exhilerating day at the Canadian Derby!! No Hesitation won the race, he was one of the favourites. Three horses finished the race riderless! One stumbled on the back stretch, another dumped his rider clearing that horse and then another jockey came off his horse! None of the horses were injured and all finished the race. I bet $97 and won $75, pretty cheap entertainment. None of my friends could join me, so I went by myself and had a fantastic day.

Love the chance to wear a fancy hat! People actually stopped me and said they LOVED my hat, one lady grabbed me and said I HAVE to have my picture with you. Too funny!!

Wonderful, wonderful visit from Tracy and Megan while they attended the Prince Philip Games Championships in Thorsby with Cassidy! Megan will be trying out for International candidate next year! Congratulations to you Meg. You've worked for that one.

Our 2010 babies!!
More pictures at 2010 Baby Pics .

Amazing, amazing curly filly from our wonderful girl Cookie. This filly will really have everything, size, colour, temperament and curl. You will not find a better curly equine, anywhere.

Our Golden Girl surpassed herself. This little colt has the finest conformation of any foal we have had at the stables. He has the breeding, Winchester, the colour, palomino, the curl, micro and the looks. What more could we ask for??

Our very first miniature, curly stallion. Talorian!! What a winner!! We have the feeling his name will be known around the world.

Atty's gorgeous mini girl, Tarriana!! Look at her markings!

Another first at the stables, Kheirrian, our first Gypsy baby!! A wonderful filly from our first class girl, Sassy.

John and Cam arrive from 100 Mile House BC to build our new sleeping cabin!!

John does such awesome work. Fast and efficient. It's so wonderful to finally see the logs become a building! 5 years after I bought them.

Will have two rooms, 3 windows and a door. Hoping to have it's final resting place at our little lake one day.

Our newest addition arrived at the stables on the weekend, all the way from Virginia!!

Very nicely conformed girl, super friendly, gentle sweetheart.

Not sure if she does not like any dogs, or just wanted to chase Baxter because he looked like a miniature her!

Roland captured some amazing pictures of a Fischer chasing a rabbit!!

Very seldom do you actually see one of these guys this close! He was so intent on getting his supper he didn't care that Roland was only 20 feet from him.

Look at that action shot! caught him in mid air!!

Wonderful, wonderful pictures from Hannah of Savannah!

Savanah is of course out of our award winning mare, SS Annie's Oakley. Hannah started emailing us over a year ago as she had fallen in love with Satin Savanah from her pictures on our site. Last fall her dream came true when her dad tested his allergies and passed!

Hannah sent us this email, "Riding Savanah is a REAL BLAST! She was a really soft back! Not hard and uncomfortable! And she NEVER bucked once! But the hay IS making her gain a few more pounds than necessary! lol! But that is better than less I suppose! :D "

And a couple of update pictures from Lynn of Amber! Looking VERY pregnant from Sasha.

---And some new pics from Franzi of Seleena in a training clinic in Germany!

Franzi reports: "A friend is doing her training, they have a HUGE stable and do all the western stuff, Seleena will mainly do Reining/ Cutting there. My friend does a LOT in the AQHA and is internationally very successful. Seleena and I will be in the small Equitana... the BIG Equitana is in 2011 (all 2 years), but already invited there, too."

Wishing everyone all the best for 2010!! Hope you were surrounded by friends and loved ones to bring in the new year.

We had a wonderful Christmas. Opening our gifts on the 31st when Roland came home. Had a terrible drive to Olds to pick up Raquel. Vehicles in the ditch everywhere. Almost had a terrible accident on the way down. Crested a hill and the woman in front of me panicked and hit her brakes to almost stop dead on the highway when she saw a semi tractor trailer and a car in the ditch ahead. Hit the brakes on the avalanche and it locked up and we had to veer to the left to miss her. Huge semi on my right, not allot of options! Was NOT impressed with her lack of respect and experience. On the way home we passed numerous more vehicles in the ditch and stranded. Took an extra hour to make it back.

Raquel was very happy to receive a hamster for Christmas. She named him Rhino and he wasn't too sure about people to start with, but after some handling became very inquisitive. But we didn't get all the information about hamsters and looks like he is not allowed to go home with Raquel, so Sitka will have something to entertain her for awhile!

John, Cam and Kim stopped by on News Years eve on their way up from Okotoks heading back to Armstrong, BC. They dropped off our handrail for the basement and John sharpened Roland’s chain saws for him!

Played some "Barrel of Monkeys". Amazing how the simplest things in life can be so much fun!

Reo stayed over for New Years eve and we all played guitars and had too much fun till well after 3 in the morn. Sitka was quite content to stay on Reo's lap, even after he didn't have one!

Off to see the horses at midnight. With a full moon it was magical. Chili was the first up to say hello to Raquel. Didn't take Pall long to take his place!

Mr. Big has to check out what all the excitement is about! Raquel makes an angel in the snow while Baxter tries to figure out if she needs help!

Stardust checks out Raquel, trying to figure out what the heck she is doing on the ground!

Pall says "Don't go yet!" what a guy.

Our lazy kitty, Sitka, too much effort to move from under the chair. Then it's crash time from too many late nights, well, at least for the rest of the family!!

Hope everyone had a wonderful, wonderful Christmas!!

A heavy fog rolled in last night, great time to take some new shots of the cabin!

Was a cold, damp evening, with just the right light to capture the warmth of the logs.

Had big plans of decorating right this year, but just plain ran out of time! Next year.

As the fog was rolling in the sun was setting and pictures do not do it justice.

The stark red against the pale sky with the mist rolling in from the forest was breath taking.

Natasha and Lindey came out for the afternoon and we took a pleasant stroll through the horses. Sitka found her spot! First stop, as always, say hello to Princers.

Love him!! He's such a ham. Just took his blanket off and he was rolling and rolling, must have felt super. Still almost falls over when you scratch his withers. Tell him "other side" and he spins around for the next scratching.

Senza sure grew up over the winter. Thought she was her mom for a second! she's just a yearling!!

Starfire was happy laying in the sun. Phleap is all legs still!

Good old Mac. Content to just hang out.

And our angelic Peggy. Her bud is Irabella.

Thought you would love to see an updated pic of Star's very late baby, Latte. What a gem.
