Merry Christmas


It's been a long time (again) since I posted and updated you all on life at Ridgeway Farm. I have been busy finishing up with college for the semester. I also got the very sad news the other night that my grandmother in England died. Finally I have been busy with Christmas preparations. My parents are flying out on the 28th of December, and we have been getting everything ready here for that.

Here is the Christmas card we took for 2009. Left to right is Fiona and Annabelle, Sandra and Binson, Ian and Jubjub, and me and Daisy Mae. Thank goodness it was her as I never would have been able to lug Jacquith through the snow.


We have a winter storm warning ready to hit tonight, hopefully I can make the best out of it and get some good pictures tomorrow of everyone in the snow. I broke up the breeding groups at the start of December and everyone has settled back into their groups and are doing very well. I am of course hoping for lots of ewe lambs this spring.

Here is my blast from the past for you to look at. Muppet wasn't my first horse. This is Jack my first horse. He was a 5 year old OTTB who I owned for just over a year.


As you can see Muppet followed along pretty quick.



I don't know what it is about grey horses lol. That's a lot of bathing.

That's all for today. I hope everyone is getting ready for the holiday's, only 6 days to go.

  1. I'm sorry for the loss of your Grandmother. You've certainly had a plate full.
    That's a great Christmas card. No sheep in our card this year, the Donkey was the star instead :)

    Stay warm and dry and safe. I'm hoping this storm skirts around us for a change.

    Merry Christmas!!

  2. What a wonderful Christmas card!

    I also have a soft spot for gray horses. My heart still belongs to a little gray Arabian mare that I named "Majik" (which is not my yahoo name). I had to sell her when I got divorced and it pretty much broke my heart. I still think about her often.

    I hope you and your family have a very special Christmas and a Happy, Healthy New Year!
