PETS!!

Well, our family is getting more and more like a zoo. Lance and I decided that we were going to buy a nice broke horse that we can teach the kids to ride on.
So our newest addition to our family is Sage. She is a 12year old red roan mare. she's a little past her "prime" which helps to make her perfect for our little ones and us. She is pretty big and has been hunting a lot so Lance is also planning on using her for that. She's really sweet. She's fat and lazy right now but hopefully we can correct that soon enough. ;) She's slowly getting used to the other horses out there and they her. I think she's liking her new home. Here's some pics of us and our new sweet girl.
This is just Andy hanging out while the rest of us took turns riding.

These are the most recent pictures of the rest of our zoo. this is Sami doing her favorite thing with our poor cat. I have had Cuddles since I was a little girl and he's really patient with Sam and all that her and her cousins put him through. :)

And...Here's ... EBONY!!! she's our 6 month old black lab. (ugh) she's really sweet too. Or atleast that's what Lance and I tell each other on a daily basis just to get us through. You'd understand if you've ever met her. )picture "Marley" from Marley and Me and throw in a wild bear... Yep that's our EB.)

This is Ebbi's chew toy... yes it used to be a red pleather recliner straight from the 60's. Now its ... well... its this :)
So I think the chair in itself would explain why our house is a zoo. But you take whatever did that add 2 kids a horse and an old cat mix it all together with Lance and I and a gold fish and you have the Jensen Family Zoo. We're thinking about charging admission for anyone who wants come and look through our living room window at us if your interested. It's really quite the show!

Wow! You really bought a horse? Seriously? Where do you keep it? That's awesome!

Melody and Lance said...

Kimi-yes we seriously bought a horse. We keep it at Lance's parents with his dad's other horses so its not that big of an adjustment for them. wanna come ride her? we're gonna take her to Woodruff probably in the spring, just to ride her around the mountains. :)
