Anna was checked this morning and for the first time she was waxing, so she was put in a paddock by herself for the morning. The plan was to use the foaling predictor kit for tonight and hopefully she was far enough along that I would just stay at the apartment. When we left for work she was eating her hay as comfortable as could be. We had a good crew at Berean, Below is Mark discussing news with Shirley and below that are just a few of the 30,000 labels Diane ordered.
Above Emily and Rhoda are wrapping Bibles and below are Eva Jean, Shirley, Diane and Joyce opening the studies, and reading letters.
We got everything done by 1:00 pm and then headed for home to check Anna. When we pulled up at the apartment and looked over there was a foal standing next to Anna. She had delivered outside, the foal was up and already had nursed. Emily helped move them into the stall. Below are a few pictures of this big strong colt by Valiant.
Karin arrived to admire him.
Rhoda and Karin had heard about Killian's behavior with Emily yesterday and since we were all there we asked Emily to bring him back out to show them how he plays with her. He waits for her to start running them follows behind having a ball bucking.
When he was done Emily put his hood back on. He really doesn't like the hood but it stops him from rubbing his mane off. He looked so funny waiting for her to get it over his eyes.
Next up to be worked with was Ayanna.
Karin round penned her then rode her but later asked Emily if she would ride her and give her input as far as Ayanna working out for the Spring show. We were pleased with how she behaved, she just has such a huge trot that she isn't suitable for a beginner.
The colt was checked on and he is nursing well. Emily made a big pan of cheeseburger soup and shared it with mom, Mark and me for dinner. Spark & Rhonda picked Diane, Sarah R and me up for choir Joan served at choir tonight so drove separate. We had a good practice and a great lunch!
