This has been a very eventful year for us!

Our first child, Max was born May 24, 2004. He is a big, strong, smart boy – growing like a weed. He has already been a big traveler. Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York Connecticut, Rhode Island. . .

Max was just a couple months old when we delivered Charlie to his new home in Rhode Island with Kelly. He is going to do really well there. She has promised to keep us informed about how he’s doing. I expect to see him do really well in dressage and all the other things she has planned for him!

We are in the middle of several big projects here at the farm. We, once again, have a big mud pit here with all the excavating that’s being done. Installing a new water line, moving the driveway to make room for a hay storage Cover-All building, flat spot for the round pen, and a flat spot for a riding area. My excavator is making me a big huge (muddy) flat spot! We’ve had a big fencing project that’s almost done as well. I can’t wait for some things to start getting finished.
