Enjoying the sunshine

Yesterday and today we have all been absolutey soaking up the sunshine...Unfortunately so has the grass....spring is HERE!!!  The horses are all feeling the joys of it....Really need to get the boys gelded very soon....Hopefully after the weekend it will stay fine and we may be able to get it done on tuesday...fingers crossed...I want a few nice days PLEASE GOD.  Oscar is really doing well now. Everything is still slow as she goes, but we can now get the rope over his back and swing the carrott stick around him without feeling threatened...I brought them back into the yards tonight- think they'd had enough grass today..you sure can tell when the grass has a punch to it...Sarg and Gypsy are now back in the haybarn paddock....I found Sarg standing with his cover right over his head yesterday morning...somehow he had managed to take most of it off and here he was standing underneath the cover with it attached by the neck straps...Thankfully now damage to Sarg and the cover will now become a summer one as he has taken all the winter courtelle out from the lining - otherwise it's fully intact...I wish he had just mentioned that he was getting a bit warm instead of going to all that trouble.
The calves will go out onto grass within 2 weeks so I can have my new yard and barn back.  Louka has been such a great role model for these Kai's I really can't praise him enough for the calm manner in which he has trained them...He looks quite big and solid beside them now.
I am quite keen to start the PNH playdays again - so hopefully everyone will be able to make it on a thursday.
