Just Forgot...

Forgot to add on my previous post that in farm news we sold 155 lambs on thursday @ $170 a head!! We have also secured 200+ lambs on 8 weeks agistment @ a dollar a head per week, which is good because we have lucerne coming out our ears at the moment. oh, and I got Skype. My skype name is katnoske96 if you'd like to add me.

New year, new gear!!

Hi all, sorry for the gap between posts but youu know what holidays are like. Anyways, I got a new bridle on thursday, and if i might say myself, it's AWESOME!! Millie looks great in it and it's really soft. Allison from horseland is coming to SPC on Tuesday to fit my new SADDLE which looks like this:
Needless to say I'm very excited. I also bought a new pair of beige joddies for competeing and some new boots amongst other things. I also ordered some clothes from the Australian Stock Horse Society the other day which should arrive soon. I'm making myself a hacking cane which I will post pics of later and all this in preparation for Henty Show which is on the 12th Feb so fingers crossed I'm ready :)
Gotta Gallop now but will post again soon,
Kat

P.S Weekly emails will start again soon. I hope :)

Hello again!

Hello again!
Sorry it's been so long but you know what the holiday season is like. Anyways, Millie is basically back in full work now after her break and I'm happy to report everything is going well. We have been shifting quite a few mobs of sheep and yesterday she even went in the water on her own accord! (she usually has to be fought with to get her into water)


In other news the harvest is almost finished, we have a paddock of oats and a tiny bit of barley left to strip. The header is actually brocken down at the moment but dad is working on it as  we speak. We sold 100 lambs yesterday for exactly the same price we got last week; 168.80 each. Anyways,
Gotta Gallop,
Kat + Millie
