Adventures in Printable Fabric

I need to go get my ink cartridges refilled now, but it was worth it!  Available in my Etsy Store

Last week, I got my much anticipated Jennifer Buxton Saddle set.  So, today I finally got a chance to tack up Mighty Purdy for a few pictures. It did not disappoint.    The detail and ease of use is amazing, thank you Jennifer!  This week has been full of tack making, including this little kid pink saddle going to Tiffany Purdy.  So even though she's had to see the pink tack trend on Jennifer's blog, she's got a cute little kid saddle and pink rope halter on the way.  At last, I have found a solution to my desire for pads in endless designs.  PRINTABLE FABRIC! I will be stocking these in my Etsy store , and I can't wait make more, oh the endless possibilities! 

Halloween!

Doesn't get much better than this! The only thing better than being at the barn, is being at the barn with my girls and husband.  This year we were Peter Pan, his shadow, and two Tinker Bells  Jasper and I won the costume contest, and a good time was had by all! Rylie especially loved feeding Jasper treats  Jasper didn't mind!  I've been working on a child's pink gaming set, but in between I've also taken some time for a few barn outings with my girls. Pony cart rides! Rylie getting to sit on Ferrari. Rylie even got to go on her very first trail ride!

Last year, I did the tack set for the JAH Cover, and the extremely talented Keri Parker did the "Fallon Taylor" doll: This year, I am the proud owner of my very own Keri Parker doll, and she's beautiful Thank you Keri! She's practically perfect in every way, so I'm naming her Mary Poppins :)

Hurricane Matthew

As many of you know, I currently live outside Miami in the city of Davie, 10 miles from the ocean. With hurricane Matthew bearing down on us, most of my week was scary stressful. I was prepared with food and water, but we don't have a generator, and Rob was out to sea.  Tuesday morning the shutters went up, packed, and I stopped by the barn to get all my tack, pamper Jasper, and enjoyed the lovely weather with my girls. When I tried to get gas on my way home, the stations were mobbed, and several stations where out completely.  I finally filled my tank, and hit the road to go North with both little girls, and two dogs.  About two and half hours down the road, I didn't like what I was hearing on the news. Our county was under a hurricane watch, and it was possibly hitting the East side, too.  I had a chance to talk to Rob, and he asked me to go down to Key West instead.  So, 10 hours later, I arrived at the Navy base only to find out my dependent ID had expired, plan B
