Oct 18

Ivan did it again! We had a bunch of rain the other day so the pasture is muddy, and the temps drops so the weather was cool. The horses were enjoying the weather and running around when Ivan slipped in the mud and cut himself up. I could tell that he was hurt, but I thought he hurt his leg. When I went to check on him I looked up at his belly and saw what he did. I hosed it off and put some medicine on it so hopefully it will heal up soon, but it's in a tender spot and may take awhile to heal. Giving him a tetanus shot too since I have no idea what he cut himself on.

Dear Coyotes....although you are cute to watch play...please go live somewhere else. I don't want you to hurt my Jo.

EXTREMELY long day. Woke up about 7ish and had to get up and get ready so we could head out. Picked up Griffey and said goodbye to Alyssa and then headed to Mexia. John had to put out hay for the 4 remaining cows at the farm. Played with Lita, gave Puppy her heartworm medicine and then headed back home. Picked up Jonas and Kacie from the kennel about 3 and then came home to take a NAP!

Went outside in the evening and saw a bunch of coyotes run back behind the pasture. John went out with his little bb gun but they were too far away by the time he got out there.

Went to Austin for Alyssa's parent's weekend. We didn't do any of the events, but it was still fun to go see her! We went out to lunch at a really cool bar/restaurant and had an AMAZING burger. Then she took us to the place that she likes to go study and it was BEAUTIFUL. Then we stayed in and watched the Rangers beat the Tigers and HEAD BACK TO THE WORLD SERIES!!!

I love him.....he is one of the coolest horses alive.

Oct 9

Got some much needed rain which turned the hard ground into mud. Skippy decided to roll in the mud and try to disguise himself as a paint horse!! I didn't clean him off since I figure the dirt will keep the flies off of him.

Oct 8

Went to Mexia to pick up a round bale for the horses. Didn't stay very long, but of course I had to visit with sweet old Lita!!!

Go Rangers!!!! John and I went to Game Two of the ALDS. It was a great game and John and I got to see a post season win! Our seats were amazing, 2nd row behind the visitors dugout. I would have rather been by the Rangers dugout, but it was still good!
