Nikita and I: 3 Years!

Today it's been 3 years ago that I bought my haflinger: Nikita. I was always told to buy a horse when I was older and living on my own. But I couldn't wait that long, so I saved al my money for years untill I had enough. so on 12-5-2007 she was finally mine and mine alone. In these 3 years we have had hard times but also a lot of fun. She has really changed in these 3 years, positive change. And I really hope that there are many more great years to come!

2007:

The very first time I met her and tried her out.

Today 3 years ago, finally a horse of my own!

2008:

2009:

Her mane has grown so much and is still growing.

2010:

Doesn't look like the horse in the first picture at all!

Might have some new riding photo's tomorrow :)

Sorry!

I'm sorry for not blogging for over a week, I've been sick. I also had an unhappy event to go to this week; a funeral. It was a very very emotional one, my father's cousin lost the battle with cancer. She was way to young and in the middle of her life. Rest in Peace Silvia.

This photo was taken by me in the Fall of 2009

But I do have 2 happy thing to announce: 1. I have entered my first Craft Show! I'm very excited about it and am also working hard to make enough new pieces to sell. That's why I haven't been listing new items on my etsy shop; everything new I make will come with me to the craft show. The second thing is that I passed my driving-test! It was the second time I took it. In the Netherlands we have to pass a test with questions, if you pass you are allowed to take the driving test. So I'll be going to the city hall tomorrow to claim my drivers license.
