Photo series: Hello, boys

We cleaned up one of the young stallions at the barn this weekend and took some glamour shots.  :)

This guy is one of the stallions available for me to choose for future baby daddy.  He's four, but hasn't hit the four year old bloom yet.

Please excuse his blinking...

Doofy outtake photo. lol Flying grain and 1970s hair ftw.

And this guy is not one I was considering for a baby daddy, but I am looking at maybe making a half-sibling of him...

How did I get the Good Child?

Someone - a certain bitchy bay mare in training I could mention - has been doing...

Photo from the trainer...

And another...

Freaking outstanding.

Those are days 37 and 41 under saddle, y'all.  (And yes, she crossed the bridge - I have video!)  She's even gotten to go on a field trip to the local covered arena; this trainer not only puts them under saddle, but she takes the time to really expose them to stuff.

The gelding she went down there with is having confidence issues, so he's going much, much slower.  Which is fine - slower is safer in this situation! 

But it's cracking us all up that Cessa is the good child.  Who woulda thunk it?
