Personality Much??

So, I'm here to tell the world about how officially attatched I am to this horse....

Oh my God, where to begin...I suppose I'll begin with the absolute angelic look he has had on his face lately. He's really starting to shine, and not just on the outside, but on the inside as well! Always the first one to greet me when I come out to see everyone, and he doesn't really leave- he'll usually just stand there and chill with me until something else becomes more important, like food, or a noise across the street :)

And today, I felt like going on a ride...it was around 6ish, going on 7, and I had Emma's bridle in my hand, but I wasn't really sure who I wanted to ride. All of a sudden Texas comes up and sniffs the bridle, and starts following me around, and I almost got the feeling that HE wanted to go on a ride. I didn't ride afterall, because I really wanted to take him, but I was going to feel bad if it ended up that he didn't want to go on a ride afterall.

So instead, I just sat on the porch with him at my side- giving him tons of kisses. He's a great kisser ;)  Lol jk :) However, I won't lie- I litterally get butterflies from this horse; he makes me so proud and happy that he's mine :) 

He's very funny though- he's a typical boy. I guess he had laid down in his stall today, because he had tons of shavings in his fur, so I was going to brush it all out and groom him real nice. So I got my grooming kit out, and went to go brush him, and like a typical little boy, he didn't want anything to do with being groomed. The girls sat there for an hour getting all prettied up, like the girls they are, but dirty boy didn't want anything to do with it lol. Cute right?

I've decided that I need to get some joint supplement for him, and everyone else really, since he seems to still be really stiff, even with all the weight and overall health that he has gained. I know he feels better, but that would probably make him feel MUCH better, along with the farrier coming out, hopefully tomorrow.

I also took note tonight of the herd complex- Tex fits in SO well, it's unbelievable. I was really nervous about bringing another horse in, as I was afraid they would bully Samone as has happened in the past. But in this little herd, Samone, thankfully, is the Alpha mare, and Tex is Alpha boy, leaving Emma the Omega. However, she handles herself just fine, and doesn't get pushed around too terribly- and they all let her in on everything. Its funny because, Sam can boss around everyone, Texas can boss around Emma, and Emma can only boss Texas when Samone is around. It's funny how things work around here, but I'm very pleased with how well everyone gets along.

Other than that, all seems well :) We are a happy little family.
