Momma got a new toy!!!

Yippee!! Now I can be current like everybody else out there in Bloggerville!! No more uploading my photos to the laptop at home, creating a CD and then bringing it to work and uploading my pictures onto my blog using my computer at work. No sirree Bob (who is that anyway?), because as you can see...I just took this photo of my new little toy, stuck the card into my new little netbook and uploaded the photo directly onto my blog. Hot diggity dog!! Am I too cool for my boots or what!?


Sorry about the messy desk!!





And yes...just in case you were wondering...I can wear boots again. Yep - or any other pair of my shoes that my little ole heart desires. Real shoes! How totally exciting! Have I ever mentioned that I'm very easily pleased...and entertained ? NO??? Well, it's true - and I am. Very thankful too.

Yes, it's so true...about the little things being the most important things in life. *sigh* I am sooo very thankful that I can wear my shoes again, and ride, and walk, and squat down, and...so many other little things that I take for granted every single day, and forget to be thankful for. So...just for the record - right here and right now, I'll say it - I am thankful for my toes. Not to mention many, many other little things (some not so little) on this body that I am thankful for. I digress...might want to mention here that another personal little thing about me is that I get distracted rather easily too...nobody's perfect, right?

Onward and ever upward folks!

So, without further adeau, let's get to the pictures shall we?? This, amongst many other things is what I did this past weekend. Cruised around shooting photos of some more of my blessings.
Great fun!!

A very sleepy and obviously relaxed group of ponies...Siri on the left, then Harley sprawled in all his glory, Shad in the center, and Ladde on the right. Acting as resident "watch mare", is Kadie.

This is what I saw upon awakening yesterday morning. Sure put a smile on my face.

Sally and a couple of her crew...the pudtats.

The grand dame of our little herd...Frosted Siri L. She is a direct descendant "ghostwind mare".

My momma's most favorite flower - the Lilac. This bush is at bleast 20 feet tall and easily 4 times wider. Gorgeous!!! And no, it's not mine sadly.

My little studmuffin Harley. More formally known as Ahkunkenekoo. Can you say that with me? A little hint...it's the Nez Perce Indian name for the land above...you know, heaven.

Our other grand lady - Wag's Pride - Ladde's momma, my sweet Kadie.

Wish I could have gotten some better action shots of these two screwballs!!

My hubby's horse...Affermative Shadow, otherwise known as Shad. I just found out that his grandsire is the infamous Triple Crown winner...Affirmed. Cool! No wonder he runs so fast.

The one and only... who for whatever reason holds the key to my heart, Ladde. Formally known as Wagtail Ladde. My pride and joy!

This branch is very highly regarded by each and every one of the horses. You can't tell in this picture, bit it's rubbed as smooth as polished gold. Another one of those small, but infinitely important blessings for sure.

Harley's adorable butt. I just love this butt.

The llama dude..."Merlin's Magic". There's many names he goes by...

Here's to another wonderful week in the life...

Cheers!!
