Looks like you girls are experiencing a bit of "urban sprawl".

He's coming along nicely isn't he?

It was so gorgeous out!!!! I had a great ride on Centauro...I'm soooo happy with him. It's so great to have him back!!!! THANKS ERIN FOR PICKING HIM UP!!!! You're a great travelling buddy - I had fun!

Erin and I had an amazing visit with Gunta on Friday night. Gunta's a GREAT cook and hostess - her place is AWESOME! :shock: I can't wait to go back up for some riding. Then off to Buttermilk Saturday AM to get Centauro. I hopped on him when we got there and rode him all around the property (which is amazing).

Centauro's a "big boy" now - fully bitted and ready for the NYC parade!!! He looked gorgeous! :crazy bannana

I'm so happy to have him back - I swear I slept w/ a smile on my face last night! He's so relaxed and happy to be home too.

It was a great afternoon, Pillo is turning into such a handsome fellow!!!! LOVE HIM. Thanks Erin.

[ErinC]

Terri was asking P to go over the Bridge, you can just see the tip of it in the picture near his foot.

Looks like you guys had a great ride today too. Wonderful...and he's coming along great and getting a great start.

[Terri]

The best part of the bridge was that is wasn't very stable, it made lots of noise and at one point hit him on his leg. He was so good, he just stood there, in the middle of the bridge waiting for futher instructions. Rio woulda been 1/2 across town the minute it rattled. Pillo is a good sensible horse. Looking forward to watching and helping him progress.

Looks like alot of fun for a spring ride with friends!

I did my big start of spring ride yesterday... on 3 horses ... my girls: Maja, Ladybug, and Davina., not all at same time, but over 3 hours of riding time...enjoyed seeing all the Carolina dogwoods blooming in the woods and relaxing trails...and minimal pesty bugs out so far.

Glad winter is gone.

[Laura S]

What a good boy!!

[swaite]

Lucky that you guys all got to ride! I had to WORK :cry:
Looks like a good time, great photos.

[Brigitte]

He's really coming along!

[Kerry W]

Looks kinda weird to see that "baby" with tack and a rider. They grow up so fast. :cry:

[ErinC]

kinda weird to see that "baby" with tack and a rider.
I know it is, but I LOVE every MINUTE of it!
he is the BEST!
now I can not wait to see what he is gonna look like once he is done growing up!
he will be 3 on the 10th.
his x-rays had his knees shut.
But he has soooooooo much filling out to do, you can see his BUM is higher then his withers.
;-)
this year will be sooooooo exciting to watch him grow and learn. :crazy bannana

[Kerry W]

I'm happy that it's going so well for you...seems like just yesterday that you went to Brenda's and fell in love.http://www.augk18.dsl.pipex.com/Smileys/lovesmiley.gif

Just wanted to add...didn't mean to insinuate you are rushing him...not at all...meant to insinuate that, the older I get, the quicker time just flies by! I know you take great care of all of your babies! :D

[ErinC]

O I know you didnt, you knew I had his kness x-ray'd
I just thought I would clear that up for others that think starting them this young is not good. ;-) some dont have closed Knees at this age.

[Tiffer]

Congratulations to Erin and Kim.....your boys are absolutely lovely and you must be so proud of them! Sure wished I lived closer so we could ride together!

[Barbwire]

Love the pics. He's looking great. Kim, your boy is gorgeous, too. Who is the bay horse?

[Centauress]

Thanks guys! I LOVE that horse! He is soooooooo sweet! :love

[ErinC]

Hey Barb!

we all rode and took turns, but I was the only one with the camera, and I HATE to be IN the picture, so ;-) ;-) ;-)
