One year anniversary, and 15 weeks to go!




April 9th marked the one year anniversary of Tex's transfer of ownership to me. I found some of the pictures from around April 15th that I took to help mark his progress. Today, I took some pictures of him for comparison. It looks like he has filled out quite a bit in a year. And, he has definitely shed out his winter hair sooner this year. He's pretty handsome, if I do say so myself!











The other pics are the alien crop circles that Tex leaves in our grass every time I tie him up. He had a break over the weekend, but today he's back on his tying schedule. He's still pacing, but as soon as he decides to sit still, I'll release him to go eat grass with Breezy and Sonny.

Also, here is a link to a short video of Tex's third ride ever on April 4th, 2010. It was his first ride in 2010. I had stepped onto his back and ridden him twice in 2009 right before I found out I was pregnant.

Tex's third ride ever- a very short video

Only 15 weeks until I can ride!!

His hindquarters have filled out SO MUCH. He has a great shoulder angle, too. He looks much happier in the pictures this year - you've done well by him. Has he gotten any taller?

I haven't measured or taken the comparison picture, but if he has grown taller, it has been only slightly.

That first pic of him as at camp isn't it?? I like his coloring alot now and he has filled out so much! Can't wait till you hear about 'Adventrues With Rosie: M Devil Filly' :)
