The horses came a little later than expected and arrived yesterday. We dropped them off at a local Amish farm to have their hooves trimmed, it had been a while and they were in serious need of a pedicure. Once all four were done we brought them back and are keeping them in the barn until later today to let their feet recover a bit. I forgot how big they are, these aren't like quarterhorses. When they bump into you it can nearly knock you over! We are making a major effort to convey the need to stay clear of them to the smaller kids because they can be dangerous to small children. So now our barn has chickens, one sheep and four horses and is starting to look more like a farm barn than a self-storage facility! Very excited to find a source locally to rent a chicken plucker as well as a place to buy spices and tea in bulk, the girls are going to be very happy about that (thanks Bean!)
I will try to get some pictures up later today.
