4 Month Old Violet

Right after the walk Ralph and Jamie Stone's mare Dakota was introduced to Valiant. She is here to be bred but is just not showing. Jamie gave me permission to let her bunk with Valiant until she starts to show. She was more interested in the grass. I had to get the camera the sun was lighting up the trees until they glowed with color. Below is Dakota.

 Valiant could hardly wait to introduce himself prancing around like he owns the place showing off arching his neck and dancing around.

Dakota wasn't impressed and told him in no uncertain terms he was to 'behave' or get kicked.

I left when they settled down to graze to head over for the next job waiting for me in the stall.

Violet turned 4 months old October 8th and Ayanna is such a good mom she is losing weight nursing this big filly. We brought them in yesterday to get Ayanna started on grain so this morning was spent removing burrs then getting some updated pictures. Violet is such a fancy mover Rhoda talked me into getting the video camera out. I wasn't able to get any music uploaded on to the video but check out Violet's movement.

Violet was having a ball flying around the arena. 

 Below Rhoda and Ayanna are watching that silly filly fly. 

The pictures and video were down loaded unto the computer then it was time to head down to work. Philip had fixed our computer problem and I needed instructions on that for tomorrow's work. While down at the shop the rest of the letters were processed.
Mark drove to church tonight as there were only 5 needing a ride and it just so happens our car fits five people. Mom, Joan, Hannah and I joined him. Mike and Diane drove separately.  David Obergfel had the service.
