Amazing Day!

This day was so amazing!! We were lucky enough to be able to visit Serenity Equestrian Center in Cortland NY, and it was just the most amazing experience!! I will be posting tons of pictures soon! The kids loved it, and Juli was talking to the horses and everything!! Johnny and this one young male stallion, Indy, really hit it off, and it was so funny, cause Indy was whuffing in his hair, nibbling his shoelaces and even nibbled his hair! Jazzy and Jenna were in horse heaven! And honestly, even John and I had a great time!! I didn't die either! ha ha ha! Thank you Benadryl beforehand! It was so beautiful!

We got loaded in her truck and Gayla drove us up to the pasture, and the 1st thing we top this hill, with an amazing view, and what do we see soaring above us.....a BALD EAGLE!!!!!!!! NO LIE!!!!!!! It was WOW!!!!! And the view was just spectacular! Then we saw the horses..........they were HUGE!!!!!! I'd never been up close with a big horse before, except like at the state fair, and I thought I'd be scared at first, but they were just so cool!!! The two young stallions were actually the most attentive to the kids the whole time!!! We got to meet the herd and pet them and everything!!! It was so neat, one even got like jealous and shoved another one like "HEY! I got here 1st, they're MY people!" it was so cool!

The horses heads were bigger than all of Julianna!!! I thought she'd be scared, but in a few minutes she was shooing flies off them and petting them and talking to them!!!!! They even tickled her neck!!!! They'd come over and like breath on you and wiggle their lips on you!!!! it was the coolest thing EVER!!!!!!

It was really an amazing experience.......we spent like two hours there with the horses!!!!!! Gayla and her daughter Jocelyn were so nice, and just really made us feel comfortable, and we all got really awesome pictures too!!! I can't wait til we can visit them all again! Anyone going that way, I highly recommend Serenity Equestrian Center!!!! You can read more about them, and their amazing herd of feathered drum horses, at Serenity horse farm.

Then we got to head on out to Homer, to pick up our new foster doggies and drop off my precious girl Bridgett to get her spay/dental. Well, guess what!! I got to feed one of Sylvia's teeny little 2 week old chihuahua puppies!!! They are bottle fed supplemented cause she had EIGHT of the little babies!!! She has seven of them, and they normally only have like 3 or 4, so poor Sylvia needs a little help! So far they are thriving under Kim's watchful eye!

We picked up a beautiful male cocker spaniel named Rocko, and a sweet beagle named Mandy, and a cutie-pie chi mix puppy named Kayla! They are just great so far, and everyone is getting along just fine so far too! I felt really terrible leaving Bridgee behind.........I almost cried!!! She was like "MAMA!!! WHERE U GOIN??" and pacing like crazy whining when I left.....sniffle!!! But I get to pick her up in two days, so I'm sure she'll be really happy to see me!!!! She's my baby though and I miss her already!!! One funny good thing is.....Tilly, our little foster chihuahua, is a puppy mill rescue, and really shy, and starting to come around a teeny bit, well now with Kayla being all snuggly puppy.......Tilly is jealous!!!! So she has actually been wanting me to pet her on purpose!!!!!!! Wow! Like huge thing for her!!!!!!!

ok, so i'm exhausted! Still have a million pics to download too!!!!!! TTL!!!!!
