We have exciting news! This week we welcomed two new additions to our family: Logan, a 6-year-old Morgan/mustang cross, and a dark teal green '97 Saab 900S hatchback.
Logan is Luke's new project horse, which I bought for him as an advance birthday present. He has only been ridden three times - once by me, and twice by Luke. Luke is learning a lot from him and will also be teaching him a lot, such as how to be a good roping horse. Although Logan isn't tall, he's strong as a freight train and a quick mover, so he'll make a great cow pony.
The Saab is my new car, which we bought from a boarder at the barn. I love it and am so excited to actually buy my first car that's all my own. Plus, it's not white! YAY! My first car was a white Tercel that I shared with Daddy. My next car was a small white Toyota pickup that was given to our family. Luke's big Dodge is white. And I've never even liked white cars! Although the Saab needs a couple of things tuned up, it runs well, is in excellent condition inside and out, and is a very fun car to drive. Although Luke has sworn up and down that he'll never be seen driving a car around, he actually enjoys driving the Saab because it's so peppy. I think I may have to hide the keys!
In other news, I've had some exciting rides the past couple weeks. Jamie isn't riding anymore, so I get all the ruffians. ;) I'm being stretched and learning a LOT! This winter will be a huge growing time for me, since I have some awfully big shoes to step up and fill.
My birthday was pretty quiet - Luke and I both had to work, so we stayed home and rested that evening, but went out for dinner with friends the next night. Then, on Sunday, we celebrated by going to a horse show and I rode a slightly crazy horse for four hours straight! But we really had a breakthrough there, and I think he'll be much better now.
Well, it's time for the Cosby Show, so I'm off to watch it and laugh. Hope things are well with y'all!

I thought you meant your pregnant or something after reading the headline.
Meh. Oh well.
Better be careful with those headlines, sweetheart. I've had emails ready to wish me congratulations!
Thought I might get some people with that... ;) Just keeping everybody on their toes.
And I think I may have to make a rule against anonymous commenting. I want to know who's talkin to me!
