New pony****is here

paso_lover · 08-14-2008, 07:02 AM

In about 2 hours (10 am) I will be off to pick up a pony for the people redoing my barn. We were suppost to get her with the girls (Kenya and her daughter) but decided that since everyone is gone we would suprise them and have her here, settled and ready for all the hoopla that these girls are going to throw at her this weekend.

Sorry people, you're going to have to wait for photos as Andre has gone to Toronto to see Judas Priest in concert and took the camera and her daughters too took their camera for their mini vacation with their granny.

Awwwww, the little girls are going to go nuts when they see their new pony !!

Great idea letting the pony settle a little before all the hoop=la !!

Can't wait for the pics !! Don't forget the big red bow !!

Well after a huge ordeal getting the pony with a trailer from HEL*

, we made it home safe and sound around 7 pm. She was NOT a happy camper considering she was taken away from her filly. The baby couldn't be bothered as mom was just Meals on Wheels and never even looked back when we put her in.....thank goodness cuz we both would have lost it

. OMG the woman even offered to GIVE us the baby, we faught temptation hard as we both know that both our better halfs would have KILLED us. Wish I knew someone looking

She has made a couple of friends already, the ones at the bottom of the totem pole

, Rosario HATES her

and kept charging the fence with teeth in full sight

. It took her about an hour to settle but once back from dropping off the so called trailer she was great, actually taught herself already how to open the barn door and was waiting for me inside

.

I have also done some thinking, these folks that have the new pony are the ones that are re-building my barn (if you haven't figured that one yet). Mom was on the fence about getting the pony as it's not fair for the little one to get a horse first since the eldest has been doing this far longer. As I had said in another post, this pony was a great deal and I am willing to wait for the payment on the gelding. SOOOOOO I had been thinking and spoke to Andre that I need to repay them for all the work being done here. I was going to wait till their house sold and they came to me with the cask then tell them never mind keep it but now with the surprise pony for A (and S is VERY happy and unselfish for her sister) I think that this is the PERFECT time to give her my horse.

What do you think?

enelson · 08-15-2008, 03:40 PM

I think your such a sweetheart to do this for them, just like they are angels for being so willing to help you. Its amazing what happens when someone acts out of kindness.

Now where are the pictures?

Carri · 08-15-2008, 07:34 PM

Oh, that would be so amazing if you did that!!

paso_lover · 08-15-2008, 09:31 PM

And yes I am

and it feels great. Mom has been crying on and off all day and dad doesn't know what to say...except that it's nice to feel appreciated for once.....I know what he means

scrapchick · 08-15-2008, 10:07 PM

Judas Priest??

That's a blast from the past.

I think it's a great idea!

cook1745 · 08-16-2008, 08:23 AM

That's an awsome idea!!!

Sassy · 08-16-2008, 08:53 AM

Your amazing I can't wait to hear how this day ends!!!

horselady · 08-16-2008, 01:24 PM
