January 2013 has just been a blast. On the first, I went skiing. On the 2nd, I went to my first basketball game at Rupp, and on the 3rd, I shot guns and cuddled horses in the snow. Phew!
Yesterday was sunny (though flat out cold), so we took advantage of it and went to a friend's house that has a shooting range. I hadn't shot in quite a while, but we had fun trying out new-to-us firearms.
The best part of the day was our required visit to Dolly and Major at the Mutterspaw's farm. Last year, little Hot Rod died, but just a few weeks ago, they added a new Shetland pony named Jenny to the farm. She's going to foal around June, so maybe I can see a tiny little pony if we come back up this summer. How fun! Jenny's not nearly as cheeky as Hot Rod, but she's a sweet little girl. All three enjoyed treats of apples and carrots and let me nuzzle and play to my heart's content. Sigh. :)

Frozen, but not thick enough yet for ice fishing. |
The day ended with one last playful romp in the snow for Bailey and Aggie Belle. I think they would love to pack up the snow and take it home with us. Bless their hearts!
