Working with Brady the Baby…

Posted by Ali on March 25, 2011

VIDEO! Mr. Brady got out twice this week to get a little work done.. Well, 3 times if you count the farrier visit, but that’s all he had to do that day!

Posted by Ali on November 21, 2010

VIDEO! This is some video footage of Angel the first time I strapped a saddle on her! I had put it on her plenty of times before this, but never put a girth on or tightened it up.
