Man, time flies when you're having fun! I've still been busy working on saddle pads, trying to get a few made to put up for sale so that I have a few more bucks to fund my 'addiction'.
We've gotten our tax return back and sadly the money is already spent. I did get to pay off, order, buy a lot of models though. I placed a huge order with Stone Horses - I ordered an Ideal Stock Horse in champagne to go with my lovely champange weanling (that I waited over three months to get), an Ideal Stock Horse in red dun to go with the just as lovely red dun weanling I just received from a wonderful lady. I also ordered three Arabians - one in bay with two hind socks and a large star, a black with two socks, a small star, and snip, and a white with no markings. They will be models to honor the memory of a dear friend and are representative of the horses she owned as a young woman. I also ordered Stone's new Morgan mold - Santa Fe Renegade and my first ever Pebbles Arabian mare - Garner! I also have a few Stone Chips models on layaway with a retailer. These are just a few of what I've bought/received, I'd be here all night listing everyone new that I've gotten!
We've made our trip to Overland Park and back. While we were there I made Mike take some time so I could spend a couple of hours with a wonderful fellow hobbyist. Her and I could have talked models all day and night. She gave me some wonderful tips for the pedigree assigning so I've been slowly working on those. I have close to two dozen of my models pedigreed now. I have also started a website for my sire/dam list. Nothing is listed as of yet but it's up! Site is: http://www.m-n-macres.weebly.com/ if you'd like to check it out.
After our trip to Overland Park we made a trip to Davenport, IA to pick up a toy hauler for a friend, tow it home, and fix it. It was sideswiped and needed some panels on the outside replaced.
I have some new stablemate barns and have discovered that I need to reorganize a lot of stuff to make room for them, which I haven't done yet. As of now they're still sitting on the dining room table and they're moved elsewhere when we need to sit down and eat. I recieved one barn that was part of a set and I'd love to find the entire set as I just love the barn and accessories that I did get. It was released/endorsed by Animal Planet and is called "Harry's Horse Playset". I don't care about the people/horses I would just love to find the barns and other accessories.
That's about all that's been going on here. Will hopefully post some new saddle pads next time I post!
