Harley at 16 yrs |
Yes indeed, it is Harley horse's birthday today!! Our baby boy is 16 years old. I did not miss that one!! I was right there with Scooter when she brought her beautiful foal into the world...it was awesome!! And this horse will be with us always and forever - that's what I tell him, and I mean it.
I'll be swinging by the grocery store before heading home this evening to pick up some goodies for the horses. Apples, carrots and pears are the delectables in honor of the special day. Some may feel that it's silly to celebrate a horse's birthday, but I don't care, and I don't think it's silly at all. We love our horses and they are a huge part of our lives. What does it hurt to provide them with a little celebratory treat to remember the day when they came into our lives? It makes them happy and it makes us happy, to see them happy! Reason enough for us!! Simple pleasures are truly treasured memories that make life special.

You should celebrate - having a wonderful horse like him is a great thing - he's a beauty and you are very lucky to have him - but then you know that already!
I doubt you'll find anyone here who thinks it's silly to celebrate their birthdays!!! Happy birthday!! Sweet, sweet sixteen :)
Happy Birthday, Harley! You are one fine looking 16 year old.
Happy Birthday to Harley!
Happy Birthday Harley!! My oh my does he have some good lookin' spots! And a nice butt! Lol! What a special boy...
Happy Harley Day!! Love the black & whites. What wonderful memories you've shared! Only you could make my eyes moisten on a happy birthday post, listening to your Wild Horses play while reading it on a rainy day probably helped. Give your Harley a birthday hug for me!
Happy Birthday to a very special guy! I'm sure Harley will appreciate his birthday party and treats. We do the same thing with ours.
Happy Birthday Harley!
