Love the messenger.

Tim helped me make this chalk board that sits just outside of our mud room door. Most of my friends know where to find me if I'm not up in my studio sewing, but for those who don't... I've gone riding. Check the barn first, then the paddock. Or the wood shop where I am painting more of these chalkboards (They can be yours! $75.00) with Rustoleum Chalkboard paint.

Black and white at it's best.

My friend Brooke Brown of Friesians of Color has had another beautiful filly. Born on April 2nd, my mothers 85th birthday, I think she should be named "Erika", like mom. Does anyone else see the Easter Bunny on her side??? Another name option is "Pippy", due to her 4 long, white stockings. She is a stunner! Congratulations to all at Old Tavern Farm!
And Thank you, Tim, for taking such beautiful pictures... as usual.

I love my wheat grass, but horses love it too!

Lucky Tys and Lonesome Dove get the left over cuttings from the wheat grass trays. I think my husband ,Tim, spoils them... makes me love him even more!

Keep your man busy.

When my husband, Tim, isn't busy stitching old feed sacks by hand to make some sassy bedroom pillows, he finds his way to the power tools. His latest project, and it was a big one, was to build 5 sets of jump standards for the riding arena. Check the video tutorial for how to build your own.
