LOVE LETTERS
Naomi,
We made it home safe. We didn'tget home until around 10:30 or so. It started to rain about a 150 miles out of Sacramento, and then we hit fog. After 4 hours we stopped and gave the mare a break, and then again in 2 hours. When we got home my Stallion Najahh started calling her wihile she was in the trailer. When we opened the door to let her out she didn't move. Melissa my friend started hugging her and telling her it's alright sweetie. She ler kind of focus on what we wanted her to do. We don't like to turn our horses around to let them out of the trailer, as we loike them to back, but it was dark and we turned her around. She was an angel on the line. She was in the stall for the night and we today have beautiful weather. She is out in the barn area meeting the rest of the gang over the fence.
MY husband is pleased with her.
She was worth the ride.Sydni

Dear Naomi,
The kids and I have picked up and moved to another house and I ran across this booklet. I know how much you like Dune, so I'm sending it to you.
Natalie has been working with Juniou several times a week. He used to fuss when she tried to pick up his feet but not any more. She has also taught him to walk calmly beside her in both directions and to stop when she stops and says whoa. He's growing very quickly--it's amazing. At the spring show Natalie wants to show him in hand. His conformation is so beautiful and he's so elegant that I'm sure eh has a great chance of winning blue!
Take care, Arevik

Naomi, Wonderful to hear about selling you mare, congrats. Several horses from our barn have been sold as well, it's a relief to see the economy starting to pick up again. Nothing much going on around here, just the usual working and riding. Several of my friends are going off to college and its hard to watch them go and to have to stay here. The sacrifices of owning horses, I assume. Junior is doing well hes starting to finally understand his job as an event horse. At the beginning of the month we competed in an event at the Woodside equestrian park in an Open division, and placed fifth! There were 17 competitors total in my division, and most of them proffesional riders. We went double clear to finish on our dressage score of 37. It was nice to finally take home a ribbon, and to know that all this hard work is starting to pay off haha. We'll be heading south for a few more events before the season is over... in Temecula and in Paso Robles. If your nearby any of those places maybe you could come watch? That would be fun. I'll attatch a few pictures from the event, but refrain from posting them on your website because they're stolen from the photographers website and I dont want to get in trouble haha.
Hope all is well with you, your husband, and all your animals. Love, Natalie, Arevik, and Junior
