Oh my god! Look what happened just now!!! 🤯🫣🫣🫣🤭

We came back from the shops and the elves got out of the house with a set of scissors ✂️ 😳😳😱

And with Curly living the closest to the house, they didn’t spare him! Or must I say his hair…..

Little Bambi and Bella 🤩😍
Only their 5th ride ever together, but I think he must have had some exposure in his past as he’s such a little gem!! 💎 🩵🩵🩵

It’s Bella’s first pony to ever break in but she’s doing such a wonderful job with him!! 🤩😎🥰

Our JCU student Billie having a ride on Allie 💕

Believe it or not, but it’s only her second ever on a horse!! Last week she’s learned so much here that while helping out with the horses she picked up so much already, that she can put it to practise when riding.
What a wonderful achievement!! And she can already rise to the correct diagonal!!! And knows how to double sit! I can’t be more proud of her ❤️‍🔥🤩🤩🤩🤩
