Pushin The Clouds Away
Top: Picture of my little herd Summer of 2003 - before I bought my minis
Autumn's Evening Star - "Autumn" is my main riding mare. She is a registered Racking Horse, a '93 model, possibly a Morgan or Standardbred Cross. I hope to get to do more with her this coming yr. 2004. I am going to try to give showing a whirl, look for us at local shows in the ladies/trail/country pleasure classes. I'll be the big girl in blue on the little bay horse, LOL!
Dixie's Splash Of Hope - "Hope" is co-owned with my cousin Theadora Haralampous and she is now under her care. She's a registered American Paint Pony, a 2002 baby, She's a Quater Pony/ Spotted Saddle Horse filly. Look for her in Halter classes this coming yr. at the local shows.
SBS Sassy Lassie - "Sassy" is a total surprise, all her previous owners have had a time with this little mare being a pure pest and total b**ch. And all I have to say about her is good. I expected her to be the same way here and having experience with unruly/shy horses I figured I would give her a shot when she was offered for sale to me (privately, hehe, Thanks Stacy!). But she has been a joy, I mean I still have days and would love to brush that mat out of her mane, but soon I know she will let me. I've just got to be patient and allow her time to appreciate all the attention I give her and one day soon I will get to brush that mane and maybe even the tail too, LOL. She's a 34" Miniature mare, a '95 model and in foal to a choclate dapple mini stud for a possibly mid-winter baby.
SBS Stari Stari Night - "Misty" is a sweet little mare I bought for my neice Gabriella to learn riding and basic stuff on. I did not even think she liked horses til "Hope" was born and realized she liked little horses not big ones. So started my search for a gentle mare for Gabbi to basically sit on. That she could walk up to without it taking a swip at her. And my friend Stacy found "Misty" for me. Everyone thought she was so ugly, I was basically told "she is real gentle and a good pony, but she sure is UGLY". So I was expecting a nag and ended up falling for her on site, what everyone thought was so ugly was actually something I had wanted all my life - an appy. To someone who does not like a true full characteristic appaloosa - they are UGLY - but I LOVE EM! And "Misty" has found a forever home, also when I got her her age was undetermined but by the way she acted and her looks, I thought maybe in her early teens - but not so, my farrier who is a good judge at aging horses told me she was only 4 so Gabbi has many yrs with this little appy and she will remain here throughout her years a great addition to the family!! "Misty" is a 40" Pony Mare, a black/snowflake appaloosa, a '99 model , and in foal to a chocolate dapple mini stud for a spring 2004 baby. Also look for Gabbi & Misty in leadline & 4H events at our local shows in 2004 if the baby doesn't keep her home. :)
Pushin The Clouds Away - "Sunny" is my newest addition I bought her mother "Sable" in foal to Painted Pushers Powerplay a registered TWH stallion that was guaranteed to give me a spotted baby. Now I was expecting a boy and was going to offer him for sale. But instead got the most beautiful filly I had ever seen. She had presence, excellent conformation, a gorgeous head, and she was red/white spotted ( I had always wanted a red/white spotted filly), but most of all this girl could gait. She has a very natural runwalk and has the front end when she moves onto a rack. Well I was taken aback, I new I had to sell one of my horses in order to keep her but did not want to, in the end it came down to size. Her mother was just a mere 14HH and I need a bigger horse for my size and this filly is going to be no less than 15HH or better. So I sold her Mom and I do believe I made the right decision to keep my filly. I have big hopes for her and am looking forward to this Summer when she will be making her show debute. She is a registered Spotted Saddle Horse, a 2003 filly, She is by Painted Pushers Powerplay ( a registered Tenn. Walking Horse & Racking Horse) out of My Lady Isabelle ( a "Rowdy"bred Singlefooter/ Puerto Rican Paso Fino Cross mare). You can look for us at the local shows in Halter class in 2004.
