So... uh
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Sorry, a little behind on,
well...
everything right now.
Between the holidays, work, pregnancy, and some cats peeing/destroying all of our furniture, the blog was on the back-burner.

| Holly sporting her xmas gift |
I've been a semi-neglectful horse mom, letting princess stay in her stall over a few days, unhappily kicking the walls, squealing and driving my barn mates crazy. But poor baby avoided the flooding of her previous paddock, and sub-freezing temps because mean 'ol mom put her in a box stall. Not that it wasn't promised to have a paddock like
weeks ago, but still.

| Why am I locked in this dungeon of terror?!! |
 |
| Oh wait, this is kinda nice... |
Holly's been her winter, spooky and high, but not totally crazy self. She definitely gets over things like walking around in crazy wind better than a year ago. Yay progress. Probably helps I'm too preggo to put up with that kind of shenanigans.

| Look Mom, I'm a giraffe! |

| Will look respectable for cookies |
About all I've got in horsey news. Except for BDay/ Xmas I got a pair of Mountain Horse Supreme Field boots. They were a steal on Tack of the Day, and since Karley had them and raved, I figured just go for it.

| Please excuse the glowing pale leg... |
I ordered a size 9, because I am usually 8.5 and dropping to a 8 without the luxury of trying them on sounded scary. What I got was extra toe room and a bit (too much) calf room. I think, if I re-lace them so my ankle has a tiny bit more room, it means I can wear comfy socks.
Win. The soles are so comfy compared to my Bevals, and they already feel super worn in, other than needing to drop a bunch. I can't wait to be riding again and do a review. Now I can polish up the Bevals for show.
