When I was out Tuesday though, I managed to visit some friends of mine who live near Izzy. They breed warmbloods. Izzy was actually born on their property, though they didn't breed her. (Her mom was boarded there temporarily). I hadn't been over to visit in a while because I've just been really busy.
Willowgate Farms
It was fun to visit with all their horses. They really are lovely animals. Beautiful faces, amazing movers, nice to be around. She's not on the website, but they have a 3 year old buckskin warmblood mare (not sure of the specific breed) who is lovely. If I had a ton of spare money lying around, I'd buy her. And an OTTB. And my old mare. And a Halfie.
You see why my husband doesn't want to own property? I'd fill it up in no time.
Here's a picture of Izzy and I, because I like it.
You know where your horse was born? That is so exciting. I wish I could go to the people who had my horse as a little foal. I am always asking Bill to tell me the story of when he first saw Lilly and why he decided to buy her at the auction. But to meet the people who was there when she was born, that would be so cool!!!!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to own my own property! My husband keeps saying I can only own two horses at once. Lol. We'll see! I keep looking at horse property to buy either out west or on the East Coast. Don't even get me started on that hunt!! We're not even going to move for at least three years.... a girl can dream!!

I love that picture of you and Izzy! She looks like she is so into her job right there! She looks really flashy in the white wraps too. Great shot!
ReplyDeleteNice picture! She's a very pretty girl. I filled up our property with horses as soon as we bought it. Of course, I already owned the horses, so maybe that doesn't count.
