Anna's Family - Horses

Here is my latest acquisition. His registered name is "Silvers Ty I Am".
He was born March 14, 2006, a registered black and white APHA, paint.
He has many of the same bloodlines as my famous 'ol "Tee Jay",
so I have nick-named him "Tee". He has the same personality,
movement and so much more. It's like KARMA. I couldn't have
asked for a more perfect prospect. I just can't wait to begin riding
him in May of 2008.
It will be SO EXCITING!!!

Here he is in NC, loping along in his pasture.

June of 2008, Tee came home from RJ Pleasure Horses. Richard and Jody Toms did his basic training, and I have to say, they
did a FANTASTIC job!!! I've been trail riding him all over several
farms, and he is "booger-proof"! Seems impossible for just a
two year old horse to be so sane about weed-eaters, milk compressors,
and so many other "scary" things around him, but he just
passes things by, without a second glance. Even birds flying out
of bushes, and things jumping across his path, don't even phase him!
I am SO VERY PLEASED with the training he received from
RJ PLEASURE HORSES - Richard & Jody Toms.
They are FANTASTIC!!!
Thank you Richard and Jody. I am so proud of my boy, and so
pleased with him too! Just couldn't be any happier with your
hard work!

Here are some more horse pictures. Diana and I have ridden since she was 8 and I was 5. Guess horses are in our blood. Try as we might, we never were able to get her daughter, Kacie interested in the horses. Too bad....we gave it our best shot...as shown below..heehee.

Diana, Kacie & Tee Jay
Yes, everybody used Tee Jay! We all loved him dearly.
Costume Class Winner, Bedford, VA - 1987

"Kacie ridin' Diana"

My first equine..."The Mighty Worm"...aka "Brat Pony".
He's shown here w/me in 1972, at 2 yrs. of age, and I am 8 yrs. old.

Anna & Tee Jay

Same year as our white horse barn was built.

Johnnie Ferrell & "Smoke N Spur"

This is my sister Diana's stallion, APHA, American Paint Horse,
"Smoke N Spur", with Johnnie Ferrell riding.
He was using "Spur" in a team penning competition.
Those two make a great team. I tell ya, it was as if Spur could read
Johnnie's mind and vice versa! They were a hoot to watch 'em working
together as a team. They won a LOT!

Here is the last "ride" Diana owned. Emmett, a mule.
They made a great pair. He did whatever she asked of him.
SHE put the comment on the picture, NOT ME!!!

Another one of my favorite horses of all time, APHA mare, "ISA Card
Showable", aka: Twinkie. One TERRIFIC gal. Trustworthy, gentle, etc..
AND gorgeous to boot! She is a buckskin tobiano, with huge golden dapples
and a neat zebra-striped mane. Her tail is all black. BEAUTIFUL!
She now belongs to Palmer Paint Horses, Moneta, VA.
