So, it's been awhile. Things have been hectic and insane and, well, hot and humid too. The good news is, all of the horses are doing great.

Nugget had his first start on Monday and ran a courageous 3rd. We are tickled pink with him and will look for a turf start next. He has been nominated to the Cradle!! Hopefully things will continue progressing with him. He did lose a bit of weight but he ran his hiney off.

BoldBold is now my favorite boy in the barn, hands down. He has put on SO much weight and has an apple bottom, which I tease him about frequently. He is galloping like a stakes horse and is generally just playful and happy all day long. He runs SUNDAY (eeek!!) and I cannot WAIT.

Butters was recently involved in a legal dispute and today we got word that he is indeed staying with us. The Lord has been so gracious to us through this process and I'm so blessed to get to continue riding this big nerd every day.

And last but not least, Kazzie has been improving by leaps and bounds. She goes right to work and focuses for MOST of the ride, and today finally started to gallop up into the bridle a little bit despite the heat and the beachy track. She is just a stunning looking filly, although she hasn't appeared to shed any pounds yet. I have faith in her, though!

Jingles for Stormy on Saturday and BoldBold and Flash on Sunday! Should be a really fun weekend!!
