Happy Birthday Nawlers!!

On February 22, 2004 the worlds prettiest horse entered the world, and I own her! Here are just a few pictures of her birthday party! She liked her cake, although we got there early and she had just finished her breakfast so she wasn't starving.

Delicious Birthday Cake Recipe:

3 Cups Oats
1 Cup (give or take) Molasses
3 large carrots
2 apples
1 Nature Valley Bar
3 Peppermints

Take the Oats and Molasses and mix them together. I used my little food processer to chop the carrots and apples into tiny, tiny pieces and mixed them in together. The whole mixture packs pretty good together! I was impressed!

I got anal again and decided she needed frosting, so I took one of my Nature Valley Bars and threw that in with the peppermints to be ground up. I just sprinkled it onto the cake after I stuck in 5 carrots! I hope I'm able to stick 20 carrots or more in it someday!

Nickering!!!!

So Denali nickered at me today....she hasn't done that since before I moved to Denmark. I even looked around to make sure she wasn't happy to see someone else! I got so excited! I think I scared her by giving her a HUGE hug! I love my pony. She's so happy, and she's already looking and acting better. I guess she does a bit of a dance on her way to and from her turn out area, but at least she's walking forward! I use to have to back her everywhere at her last place!

I am so grateful I decided to leave. Still miss seeing everyone, the new barn is much quieter, but also, much much nicer. They aren't even comparable. Denali gets 5 or 6 flakes of beautiful Timothy hay and delicious grain! She loves it! I was worried she'd drop more weight due to stress, but she seems totally fine, if not better!!
