That puts me up to five horses, which seems crazy, but I am going to do all I can to make it work.

Anyway, first I will share the exciting news that Serenity foaled at 6 a.m. May 30th!!!! She had a gorgeous solid sorrel filly with a blaze and three stockings! I named her "Remedy" as planned and she was healthy and happy and is five weeks old now as of yesterday! Her vet check at one day old went VERY well and I haven't had a single problem with her so far *knocks on wood*. Serenity was a very protective mama the first day or two post-foaling, but was then not feeling threatened by Pat and I messing with her and Remedy and has been a perfect mom since! I love Remedy more than I can say. She is the most precious foal in the world to me! She is perfect in every way. BEAUTIFUL, has a GREAT personality (she has loved being handled since day 1! I can touch her all over, pick up all four feet, open her mouth, catch her, etc.), and great build and conformation. I couldn't ask for a better foal out of Serenity! Remedy has brought so much joy to my life. I de-wormed her for the first time today and she took it like a pro as I knew she would. :) Ha, she LOVES attention. And she loves having her butt itched. I can't say a single negative thing about her. It's also really cute how well she gets along with our puppy, Maverick. They play with each other all the time! Oh, and I did see the end of Remedy's birth. I got to remove the amniotic sac from around her body and towel dry her.

As for the other two foals.. They are orphan foal rescues. Pat and I rescued them on Wednesday (July 2nd) from a nearby feedlot/bucking horse ranch called JS Ranch. One of them is a chestnut Haflinger/QH looking filly we named "Firefly." She was guessed to be 3 months old (by my vet). She has a huge blaze face and is SO adorable. She has such a long mane, tail, and forelock and they are thick and curly like a pony's! I have a soft spot for her. The other foal is a bay grade Quarter Horse or Quarter Horse/Appaloosa filly we named "Andromeda" aka "Romy." She is guessed to be 6 weeks old or so (way too young for weaning, the poor thing). She has a star and three socks and is very flashy! Unfortunately they have both had no prior handling besides being manhandled at the feedlot, so they are scared of human contact right now, but we are making progress. They were both wormy when they came to me so I de-wormed Firefly today and tried to catch Romy to de-worm her, too, but no luck. Will try again tomorrow. They both got their tetanus antitoxins and also some Equistem (immunity booster) when the vet came out. Oh, and no one has hernias (including Miss Remedy), so that's a relief! Anyway, these two will be a huge project for Pat and I, but I am looking forward to it. I bet anything they will be awesome little horses one of these days and I want to give them a chance to shine and be loved and well cared for! They deserve it!

Anyway, the big horses (Goldie and Serenity) are doing great, too! Serenity looks SO much better than when I got her and she had rain scald, a dull coat, matte in her tail, long and chipped hooves, skinny, etc.. She is now sleek and shiny, rain scald free, at a nice healthy weight, matte-free, and up-to-date on farrier and vet! We started riding her again 3 weeks after she foaled. She has proven to be a GREAT riding horse. We love Serenity! She just needs work on picking up her hooves and trailer loading. Goldie girl has been super when ridden, too. I love that horse so much. She is getting too fat this spring/summer, though, so we need to cut back on grain on her.
