Holy Shit! I bought a horse

[history_gurl]

So, um, yeah, we bought a horse on Saturday. She's a four year old, bay mare. Green broke. Thoroughbred. Her registered name is Majestic Jet. We changed her barn name to Maia. Pictures under the cut.








Turning is a skill she hasn't quite mastered yet.




She's 16.1 and such a dark bay, but she'll grow a little bit more and fill out a lot.





She is, however, quite willing. She'd never even seen a jump before Saturday, and she took it in stride. Literally, as she simply trotted over the cavaletti. But hey, it's a start!

Conga rats, my dear! She looks a bit underweight but sweet in expression. How tall is she?

Am gave me this news via Facebook on Sunday. Glad to see some pics. BTW... Friend me already, damnit!!! I have Am and Colleen already.

Maia is going to be pretty. Can't wait to see her in person.

Love ya, babe!

You know, I was just thinking this morning that I needed to call you and see if you're still alive. ;)

Hey, gonna be around there next October? My mom's planning a family outing to Vermont (the 'rents, one of my aunts and me to visit said aunt's younger son in VT) and we're working out the way there. Was thinking that I'd finally get to use "my room" *vbg* if we go that way as my mom suggested. :)
