I woke up to a white world this morning! We got about 8-10 inches during the night. All the animals are snug in their barns. I did put blankets on Bannie and Sunny and double blanketed Chance and Smoke. They are just in a run in barn and the wind still blows through it. They seemed warm and happy though.
I took Levi riding on Smoke yesterday. I rode her first, then lunged Bannie while he rode her in the little pen. I've been doing the GaWaNi Pony Boy native american roundpenning with him and now I've worked up to being able to free lunge him without a halter or rope on him in any size enclosure. Yesterday I took him into our large sheep run and did it. He had plenty of room to run away but he didn't. I had expected him to give me trouble but he was as good as gold.
Hattie's buckling, Rodeo, should be leaving today. Maybe the girls will settle down once he leaves.....maybe. I think Hadiyyah will take up where he left off. She has already figured out a hundred and one ways to get out of any pen! The other day I was kneeling on the ground and all three babies were jumping on my back, eating my hair and standing on my head! You can never fix fence in peace with babies around!
I finished quilting the star quilt today. Now I've just got to finished the edging. I'll get pictures posted of them soon.
Now I think I'm going to get a cup of tea and work on finishing that quilt!
