Feels like Spring!

yaaay! the sun has come out for the first time in a loooong time! I think we will have great weather all week long! I woke up early today and went for a nice long ride on Drengen, the neighbors pony. He is like Candy, only a little shorter and with bad manners =p he is a lot of fun to ride though. I have also been learning how to milk the cows, and go up to the chicken farm to talk to my dutch neighbors when they are collecting eggs. It is a family living about a half mile away, they have a son and a daughter my age, and I can just barely say their names! I have also been training calves to go on walks like dogs. lol it is really cute because they were born in the winter, so they have never been outside the barn before, so when they see outside for the first time, their eyes get so big and they run around investigating everything and they are scared of their shadows.

Also: Bet had a foal! It was late last night and I have not been to see him yet, but Morten says it is a healthy little colt. hopefully I can get up there to see him today!

Sarah, your Mom put me onto your blog. I am still reading it, but thought I would write now to tell you Luke has 13 babies this spring and many of them are on our blog. He loves the black stallion Vulcan the best.

Luke and Liz and I say Hi and we're very proud of you on your BIG ADVENTURE.
Isn't it nice that every culture seems to have horses and music to bring people together?
