some of our beauties

heya.. i am 10 i have had horse for ever.. my sister elizabeth has always been amazing at riding she was born for it i swear.. but i never thought i had the gift! don't ask! so one day my sister took me out to the stables to ride her favorite horse... she never lets anyone ride this horse its very special to her (she reared it herself every two hours having to feed it because the mum died at birth of the filly :( )

so i got on vies (that's his names its french for lives) and i just fell in love at this point he was 3 years old and still being trained so every morning i got up at 5 am then at 7 then at 9 to feed her with my sister.. i did this till he was four then she stared eating by her self even thought she should of started a long time ago! vies was the best horse in the world she trusted us so much! and we would lie in her field and she would come up and nudge us with her muzzle!

Then one night my mum came running into my room and was crying and vies had been stolen.. we only knew that because this had happened before so my dad put up cameras me and my sister spent the next week on horses and in the car searching for her and putting up posters of the van that had stolen her we gave up hope after looking for for 11 months but i hadn't given up all hope i sent emails out to every one in the area.. we finally found her two years later and she was awfully thin! it was all because of my dad the police had tracked down the number plate and she recognised the car... we brought her home and she was pregnant she had two foals espoir,and hope we called them. over the next 8 years veis had 12 more foals. i know i thought that too! that's alot but they were all named and we kept all of them we thought nothing could ever happen to her again.. veis is now the boss of them all and the four stallions hope, amour and essie have one 13 bfo between them 7 dfr and all of our foals 28 won best horses of the season!
