Update

Well, a couple of things going on here... Natage is here...such a sweet boy that he is. Blue likes to throw her weight around, just lets him know she rules the roost. She only talks to him with her eyes and ears, thank goodness, and it gets the point across. He's been here about three weeks now, and I think things will go ok.

Kissy had steroid shots in her bad knee on September 12th. For the first few days, she was in a great deal of pain, but I'm seeing a great improvement now....she's moving, what appears to be, pain free. I've yet to see any limping. The true test will be when the cold weather comes.... I am still giving her pain medication just as a precaution, but only once a day...

She even gave a ride to a little girl last night...and they both had a blast! By the time they were done, this little 5 year old knew how to direct her by herself, just a halter and lead rope...no saddle (I wouldn't put the extra weight on, and this girl weighs like nothing!). Kissy tells me if it's not ok. And she was really enjoying herself! They both were. I should have taken some photos...

Anyway, the days are getting shorter....but the most beautiful time of year is coming upon us. And a very fun time (Halloween) for me, our son, and one of our little mini horses. So starting to gear up for that. Our little horse's "costume" needs some modifications!
