1 Year Anniversary

One year ago, this happened. 

(See the horse trailer in the background?) 

Ollie's first picture in his new home. 

We put him in the round pen.....

....and that started the journey with my stubborn brat. XD




The next morning, I let him out in the front pasture and he got his first taste of the new grass. 

Then I had my first photo-shoot with him. 
Blah. That mane! I am so glad it has grown out. 


Our first rides were a little bumpy.....
See my jeans? Yeah, he ripped those during the ride. 
..but as the year progressed, he improved.

I watched him get his winter coat...


So DIRTY!!!

...and then become all sleek again.

After a bath. June 2015

He was there through the selling of three horses.....

Ollie with Rosie and Half Pint-sold May 2015

Cheyenne (far right) sold September 2015

Current mare-Billie Jean September 2015-

...and stills remains as playful as ever. 



I have learned so much, and he has too. 

His mane has improved....

He may be a little bit more difficult sometimes, but I wouldn't have it any other way. :)

I am excited to see what next year brings, and what new things Ollie and I will have to overcome.
