So, Lily first. She is very quick to pick-up on new concepts. She has voice commands down even with all kinds distractions around her (half brother whinnying, bobcat moving pallets, etc.). I think she is rather cute, especially now that she is gaining weight. She is still rather shy and a bit hard to catch but she definitely has more trust in me then she did a couple weeks ago. What do you guys think, cute?
Then there is Toby, he's a little slow... It's not his fault I promise. Actually I don't know that he's stupid, because some times he is a little more conniving than Lily. He is just kind of dull, to aids, to other ponies, to just about everything. I think it might be partially because he is a year younger and has the attention span of a gnat. Either way he is catching on slowly (don't have a good picture of him yet sorry).
Then there is the saddlebred. Prophet. He was quite good tonight. He can go up and down banks!!! I don't know why this was a problem to begin with he just randomly decided that it was way too scary for him. A month or two ago I went riding with a friend and when we tried to cross the river, he had a conniption going up the far bank. So after a bit of a fight and trying to follow Louis across, I decided maybe I could lead him up... Bad idea. He ended up changing his mind at the last second as I was trying to climb back down the bank and he jumped, landing on the back of my right knee. Ended up with a really nasty cut/abrasion/bruise on my leg. It is still a funny shape. See... That was 2 days after.
Then there is Louis! I love Louis! My mom rode him, she hasn't ridden more than twice since she was 13 or 14. We are slowly getting into the habit of riding every other day, which is awesome in my humble opinion! Here are two of the cutest ever pictures of Louis!
Hehe it looks like the telephone pole behind him is coming out of his lip. Lol, photoshop anyone?
Okay, guess I'm done for the night. Plans for tomorrow, lunge ponies with the bit. Dosen't sound too complicated. Wish me luck!

First to comment... sweet.
I call favorites on Louis... Belgian Xs rock in general... I love seeing other people with them.
Good luck with the PPs. If my comprehension skills aren't failing me, someone else owns them right?
Louis is super cute - I'm a sucker for big blazes. Though Lily looks very sweet too.
All the best working with them!
lol since there are millions commenting on my posts... Yes they are a owned by someone else. He is rather amusing to say the least. Thanks for commenting! lol
I know.. do you see how I just squeaked in there.... haha.
Blogs can suck that way... sometimes.. you're like.. why am I writing all this to myself... I know what my narsty ass bruise looks like... its great for keeping track of horse training, etc though.
The GL thread died over there before I could give you this:

Don't know what kind of music you listen to... but I recently fell in hopeless love with this band...
I like them! I listen to a whole shit ton of stuff. Some Bosstones, some Marley, Sublime, Chili Peppers. Almost anything from the 90s. I really like lyric based stuff too. Wallflowers, Jacob Dylans new solo stuff, Matt Nathanson. It all depends on my mood. Every once and awhile I pull out the weird techno stuff, I have a whole album of Cansei De Ser Sexy on my ipod (weird Portuguese band, they were featured in an apple commercial, I'm not cool enough to have discovered them myself or anything...) What else are you into? I tend to get addicted to new catchy stuff and buy or download a whole bunch, then get tired of it. I skip a lot of stuff when I shuffle my music, lol.
I'm weird with music because I get like really really into one band.. play the hell out of each cd from that band... then I switch.. so far I've gone through an Our Lady Peace stage, an INXS/Micheal Hutchence stage (way later then everyone else did.. it just ended last year .. haha). a Storm Large phase.. then I went on sabbatical... now I'm on a bambix craze. I like other music, but usually just song-specifically... I like anything quirky/random but with well thought out lyrics.
My friend went to TO pride.. she got to see Uh Huh Her... I don't really know what they're doing (its Leisha Hailey and somebody)...but they may turn out to be interesting...
