Hmmmm.....

I was wondering if I should even post my prepared blog - with all that is going on in my family ( Mom ) - and then decided to go ahead....because it will make me happy and hopefully bring smiles to you.



This post was entitled Bud's Bloopers:




              These 3 were taken on a trail ride where Bud decided

not to listen to be - but instead follow the horses that had passed us - ergo almost landing us in the forest adjacent to the path !!  We were going backwards at a fairly quick pace.


           In this photo he was scared to death, but never looked better :)

Here is the photo of us I enlarged & Doug ( owner of the barn ) surprised me one year and had it framed IN Bud's stall - where his teeth marks are forever etched!


This one I took last year and as I approached him with camera - you can see his nostrils opening up very wide ( fear ) - as he hates his photo taken......


These 2 were taken on Halloween - I used to work at a pre-school and I went as a horse lover and wore my heart on my hat.....the kids loved it :)

Bud's Birthdays etc

Over the 6 years I have known the Buddha - we have celebrated many a Christmas and Birthday together.  I'd like to share some of these photos with you today.


                    His first Christmas ornament - thanks JB.



                 We decorate all the stall doors as well as the barn aisle....


                Along with the equine - I use decorative garland, vet wrap, 
   
                 a Christmas tree skirt, and of course, his festive red halter!

After helping unload the stall bedding (dirty shirt)
a photo op presented itself.




This sign goes up every year on his stall door


                     Celebrating one of Buds' numerous B'days



                                      Ditto...

                   This banner is an annual decor for his stall
                  
                    ( and also doubles as his B'day neck ware )


Bud will turn 20 years old April 9th of 2011 -I'll be  planning a celebration with lotsa decorations and plenty of delicious treats.  Stay tuned.....
