Progress report

Wow, so much to cover. 

The new lease show mare, Daisy is working out wonderfully.  I showed her in Windsor at the spring Warm-up show in early June and she was wonderful.  She fussed a few times, but never acted frightened or freaked out.  I felt safe and in control at all time.  So I am pleased as punch with her. 

The four March foals are growing fast!  Hat Trick and Blossom are now sold and will go to their new home after Hat Trick is gelded and they are both weaned.  As of now, Charming is a keeper and Terre is still for sale.  All foals have had a bit of lead line training and have had their hooves trimmed twice.

Buffy and Carmel are about 14 days from foaling!  Both have substantial udders but their milk is not testing ready yet.  The next few weeks will be a busy time, as I have a wedding (nephew's), a horse show and these two girls to foal out.  What dont kill me makes me stronger (sure hope so anyways)
