                                           Easter Sunday,,breaktime, yes  some stallions can run, or sleep with the foals...  

Sharing a carrot,,, not hard to figure who got the biggest piece,,, hard to believe he's a 7 year old stallion...

The herd checking out the front pasture.

Father and son having a face to face meeting.  " Hi daddy, You gonna teach me all about this stallion thing, You do with the girls ".

Come on now,, what must I do to get you to pay attention to me,,???

Katie with her son " Cloud Dancer " aka Bud. checking out the pasture,,he's one day old ...

Pasture time with Katie & Bud,,,,,

  Quality time with a couple of the Ladies,,, time spent with mares in this manner really pays dividends at foaling time,, very close BONDS,, unbelievable trust.... 

Stormy getting a drink from Nike while his mama is watching,, and Nike seem to be perfectly content to let both foals drink at the same time,,

"Ribbons" and her daughter "Diamond "enjoying the morning in the pasture...

"When your horse follows you without being asked, when he rubs his head on yours, and when you look at him and feel a tingle down your spine...you know you are loved."

"We have almost forgotten how strange a thing it is that so huge and powerful and intelligent an animal as a horse should allow another, and far more feeble animal, to ride upon its back."
