oooh, my handsome case! my casey boy! have i mentioned that i love him? he’s such a good part of me. a huge chunk of my heart is casey, and that’s just how it goes. so, it’s crazy to me that just lately i’m seeing these little white hairs suddenly popping up on him in new places. a few new speckles on his pretty face. a light, sparse dusting over part of his belly. some growing long here and there in his chestnut mane. they’re subtle, but i see them. little reminders that time stops for no one, not even a girl and her horse. it’s just not easy being 27! oooh, case, i feel ya, boy! 😉
but anyway, since i remember all too well how hard last winter was on casey, i’m trying to soak up some of these easy, warm, sunshiney days with him before the cold hits again… and goodness gracious, you know, when fall is pretty around here, fall is preeeeetty!
[and, oh, if these woods could talk!]
so, casey and i, we took a little walk on sunday to get out and stretch our lungs, and as always, it felt so good! and that view of his fuzzy ears, well, that is just my favorite thing ever. there’s nothing like the view from the saddle to put life back into perspective. [sidenote: it’s funny to think how many more shots i would have from riding when i was little if iphones had been around longer, and i kinda wish they had been for that reason! but i do cherish my old time polaroids! ha!]
…and there it is. my happy place. <3
[aaand no, no, we don’t keep wine in the barn… although, yes, that might be a brilliant idea! 😉 there is something really heavenly about taking a glass of red [or bubbly prosecco!] in the direction of the barn and the sunset!]
love me some horses. and nothing compares to that bond. or those last photos which have me smiling on this tuesday morning! the matching leg up on the rail is too much! xo

Such sweet pictures!
Wine in the barn sounds like a pretty amazing idea to me! Love, love, love that M is your mini me!
Wine in the golf cart, perhaps? Priorities after all. I probably would have used disposable camera after disposable camera if I had ever been blessed with a horse in my youth. At least you can get lots in now all easy-like.
Wine has a way of making things so much more dreamy, right?!
oh i love horse back riding, these photos are lovely!
