Smokey's Smokin' News! |

Hello everyone & Happy New Year! Boy, is time flying or what? It feels like just yesterday I was a just a crazy little colt at my mother's side. Hummm....if I am having those thoughts again, it must mean spring is around the corner. Yay, spring means my birthday! (May 20th for those who want to start my birthday shopping early.) Spring also means the horses will soon be very happy because the green grass will be coming back! Mini camp is making a come back too, that's almost as good as grass~check it out! |

RIDER OF THE MONTH: This month we honor a rider who has been making huge strides in her riding! Billie Kurek is our rider of the month. Billie is not only one of my favorite buddies on the ground, but she's also a fun partner when she's in the tack. Billie proved herself a cowgirl this month (we won't go into the ugly details here, let's just say it wasn't me, ok...) and has future horse trainer written all over her. We also love Billie because she hangs with us at the shows & helps watch over all the horses. Congratulations Billie my friend, you're on your way! HORSE OF THE MONTH: Not only do the horses here take our humans for rides, provide them with lots of wet slobbery kisses and also eat a lot of their money, but we also have secret meetings. In the last secret meeting we held out in the fields we all voted that Sugar gets the honor of Horse of the Month. And uh, we also believe Parcy swayed the vote by voting at least 20 times for him. It's been rumored that I am jealous of Sugar's amazing canter, I am here to set the record straight, it's true, all true. In fact all the horses are jealous of that canter. Everyone knows Sugar and I don't exactly get along but I will say he's a phenomenal riding horse. His 3 mama's, Laura, Carolyn & Michelle are sure lucky to have him and vice versa. All of FRF was buzzing when he came up for sale because everyone truly loves this amazing horse Smokey, whoops I mean Sugar. Congratulations Sugar, our horse of the month! NEW RIDERS: I would like to welcome some new riders here at Fox Ridge Farm. Gabrielle, Megan, Ashley & Deirdre all of the lesson horses are looking forward to working with you! Welcome, welcome, welcome! NEW HORSES: Welcome Krunch & Truffles! You can see & read all about Krunch on the sales/leases page. Truffles is FRF's very first miniature horse, standing a whole 36". He is adorable, even Smokey can't resist his cuteness! And he's got blue eyes just like me! Take a look for yourselves:  I know, can I get an awwwwwwwwwww.... GOSSIP: Someone told Jack, who told Prince, who told Corkey, who told Parcy, who told Sugar, who told Homer, who told Fred, who told Mojo, who told me that LuLu is moving. Not off the farm I hear, but up to the self-care barn by the house. Apparently it seems Finny is her new boyfriend (though he doesn't know it yet) so she's setting up house right next to him. Some say that the big curly girl is a bit too forward with the geldings, not saying who says it, I'm just saying... I wish I could say I was sorry to see her go, but as everyone knows LuLu hates me. I know, didn't think it was possible for someone not to totally and completely fall in love with me, right? Well, it's true, she tells me all the time she hates me & she tries to bite me on the butt when I pass her stall! I am glad my view will be a little less curly if you know what I mean.... CONGRATULATIONS: Congratulations Scarlett & Lily on you're adorable new mini, Truffles. A big big congratulations to Laura, Carolyn & Michelle on your purchase of Sugar. Best of luck with him! THANK YOU: BUD & GRETCHEN: Thanks guys, for taking such good care of our farm and all us horses! We love you! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! SCARLETT: For all your hard work here each and every day. My little sister truly goes beyond any 13 year old I've ever known. She's up at 5a.m. mucking stalls, helps out with lessons everyday & still manages to get great grades in school. A super kid with an unbelievable work ethic, who deserves lots of pats on the back. Thank you Sweetie, your Smokey loves you (and so does your Mojo, your Parcy, your Jingles, your Krunch, Truffles & your Princie)! That's it people, I'm outta here, Smokey |
