Time for our yearly Christmas photo ops. For those who don't remember; this is TAZ. He was champion of the 2008 Idol's division Mustang Makeover. He has grown leaps and bounds in the past year. He is still the most incredible, sweetest horse we have ever known. He is a huge puppy dog of a horse and thinks that we are his herd. He & Kirstin share the most amazing bond between horse & human that I have ever witnessed. This photo session took about 15 minutes and he didn't move a step while we primped and posed both of them.


Here's the two newest editions to our Mustang herd. Fist Full of Dynamite and Kryptonite. Both are adjusting to their new life quite nicely and are enjoying the attention showered on them by both Jamie & Kirstin. Both horses were competitors in the Makeover this past September and both have been a blessing to have around. The girls are enjoying them.

Kirstin has chosen Kryptonite, or maybe Krypt chose her. When the two girls go out riding, she is always on Krypt. Krypt was trained by Matt Replogle and placed 11th in the Legends Division. He is the most laid back horse in the world, but when Kirstin ask for speed, he delivers. She is currently training him to run barrels for the youth playdays that she attends.

Dynamite chose Jamie, there is no question to that. Jamie is Kirstin's older sister and has recently taken up riding again thanks to Dyno. Dyno was trained by Joe Weitekamp and placed 10th overall in the Idols Division.

We are so blessed to have all of these wonderful horses as they have really made our girls who they are. We live out in the middle of nowhere and there aren't any kids their age around so the horses are what keeps them busy and they have enjoyed every minute with them.
Our wishes for everyone out there is that you have a Blessed and very Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year!
