The New Additions


The farm is a great place to be and the expanse of this place has meant that the reality of adding new additions is possible.  Even horses!  And two girls here are very excited that we have FINALLY found the next answer to their dreams.  Meet Kierra's new equine friend,  KEELA!

and Dayna's daily companion, WAYSA!


Keela is 4 years old and a great horse for Kierra.  She is green broke and easy for Kierra to handle.  She needs work but we have Sarah Stam living next door and even though that is far away at times, she is here at the main farm A LOT and that is a huge bonus for both girls as they work with their horses. 
Waysa is only 3 years old and not rideable just yet but  we have someone coming a couple times a week to work with her and Dayna.  We hope it won't be long until the two of them can be seen flying through the fields, alongside the palomino and her rider, Kierra!

The horses are such a big part of the girls' lives that in celebration of Kierra's 13th birthday she had a "Riding party' with 3 of her friends and Dayna and Sarah.  Two of the girls brought horses along and they are just leaving home to go to a neighbor's farm where Sarah's horse, Shade is until they have a spot for her at their place.   It was an long afternoon of wonderful memories -  6 girls and 4 horses and beautiful weather!
Ontario girls (you know who you are!) - should you want to come out for a riding party of your own, let us know when you will be here and we will make sure to have enough horses ready for a ride!!

Aunt Ev! This blog looks great :)
And I really hope I can make it out to visit, maybe next summer, and I would love to go on a horse again!
Please say hello to your wonderful family for me.
Love always,
Fina
