I have another blog: http://mylifejif.blogspot.com/. But I decided to do this blog because. . . well, I'll get to that in a minute.
OK. 2 weeks ago yesterday, my mom got a call from a friend about their friend's grandpa had some horses that he needed to get rid of. So they are getting a Pony, a Mule, and a Mare and Foal. They told us that their friends had a yearling named Valentine that they needed to get rid of. So that afternoon, me, my mom (Toni), my twin brother Adam, and my friend Jessica, went to see Valentine (Valley for short). Valley's mom is a Quarter Horse, and they don't know who her dad is. But we are pretty sure his dad was an Arabian. Maybe a white Arabian. Jessica said that Valley is built ALL Arabian.
She is BEAUTIFUL. Oh yeah, the lady was going to sell the filly for $200, but she said she would sell it to me for a hundred! YEAH! I WON'T BE BANKRUPT AS SOON! LOl. Anyways, the next day me, Adam, dad, and Pappa (grandpa on my dad's side. They live right next door to us) went back to look at Valley. The next thing I know Valley's being loaded into the trailer to head to our house for a trial! Dad went ahead and payed for her (I still haven't paid him back yet), and the lady saying that if we decided we didn't want her, we could give Valley back, and get our money back. But I don't think that we will be getting rid of her. It's going to be fun, and challenging training her.
I will post pictures on here A.S.A.P. Well, for the weekend, our family our going to our grandparents house who live in AR. It's my mom's dad, and her step mom. We call them Grandma and Grandpa, and the g-p's that live next door to our house we call them Pappa and Mammaw, and my mom's mom, we call her Nonnie, and her husband by his name Landon. Ok, I'm probably giving to much information. My real name is. . .I'm not going to tell you, but my fake name is Zimri (zem-re) Aesragnah (as-rag-nah) Oespriepups (Oss-pre-pups)
But call me Zimri. IWPLAV! (I will post later about valley!) PL (post later)
Love,
Zimri

zoe? I need help
Hi Zimri I love your blog!!!
Can't wait until you put more stuff on it.
me neither! I'm at my g-p's house, my grandma has a new kitten named Misty, she is soooooooooooooo cute!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey, like your blog. It's interesting to know what happened when ya'll went back without me..... ya'll hooked up the trailer BEFORE loading her, right? ;-) I sure was scared when the trailer tipped up when I loaded Valley that day.............. Eeekk! I was more scared than her! Lol. I put a saddle on Fuller yesterday! He didn't even buck!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I lunged him around and then left him in the corral for an hour and a half to get the bucks out. But when I came back he had rolled and the saddle was under his belly!!!! But typical Fuller, he just stood there like nothing was wrong till I took it off. I hope that it will be the ONLY time I un-cinch a saddle upsidedown!!!

LOL. I honestly don't remember if we hooked it up before or after. LOL. That upside down saddle thing reminded me of something at Horse Camp, but I'll tell you that later, TTUl.
