So I FINALLY heard back from the Appy breed organization about Phoenix’s registration and…he has been accepted as an Appaloosa Sport Horse! The problem is that he was not accepted in as Phoenix…there was already a horse with that name. So for his second choice name I did something on a whim, which lucky all [...]

2010 Horse Super Bowl Commercial
Posted in Horse, tagged Horse, horses on February 8, 2010 | 9 Comments »
While at a Super Bowl party last night I lamented the fact that there were no horse commercials at all during the first half of the game. Normally Budwiser has some great Clydesdale commercials! In fact, while I am a fan of Canadian beer most of the time I make a point to drink Budwiser [...]
My Yearly Tradition
Posted in Gennyral, Horse, tagged Horse, horses on February 7, 2010 | 3 Comments »
So every year that I have had Genny I take a picture of him during the 1st snow of the season. This year I couldn’t get out there after the first snow so I am heading out today. I cannot wait strip him naked and let him loose. For three years now though I have [...]
No Ponies Today…But Lots Of Horse Stuff
Posted in Horse, tagged Horse, horses on February 6, 2010 | 1 Comment »
I am looking outside my window today and it is SNOWING. Not pretty little flakes drifting from the sky. More like piles of snow falling at odd angles because of the wind. Needless to say, I am taking a snow day today. I have zero intentions of going to see the boys today, but that [...]
My New Schleese Bridle…
Posted in Uncategorized on February 5, 2010 | 13 Comments »
Look at my little dressage pony! Doesn’t he look precious (and slightly tortured at the same time )! I think so. With everything going on with the saddle I still wanted to keep my bridle because, yes, it really is that nice. Notice how it fits Phoenix like a dream? So I know you all [...]
Lexingtons Legacy

Last week in the mail I got one more gift from my Sainted Paint (known on this blog as X). We received a 60% achievement award from one of my GMO’s. This was from a show back in November of 2008. I got the gift of one last ribbon from a horse who already gave [...]
Now this is more like the Schleese Saddlery I Know And Love
Posted in Horse, tagged Horse, horses on February 3, 2010 | 18 Comments »
I had a very cute baby horse filled Wordless Wednesday post that is going to have to wait because I have a big update about my saddle! So I called Schleese yesterday morning to tell them that I just could not justify the extra expense of getting my saddle done and to just send it [...]
A Saddle Should NOT Make You Cry
Posted in Horse, tagged Horse, horses, schleese on February 2, 2010 | 15 Comments »
I got a call from Schleese yesterday. And no, it was not a good call. So you all know that after my fitting with Jochen Schleese that my saddle went up to Canada to get the whole bottom re-done. It was going to cost me an arm and a leg to get it to fit [...]
Phoenix’s Mojo and The Evil Bitch Mare
Posted in Horse, Phoenix, tagged Horse, horses on February 1, 2010 | 12 Comments »
Phoenix and the Evil Bitch Mare So Phoenix lost his Mojo back at the start of January. This has caused a lot of stress on my life for the past month. My Fat Spotted Pony is a baby so he will still have baby spooking and bolting moments every once in a while, but last [...]
