Like Father, Like Son

1st day of the sale
2nd day of the sale

This last week was the annual Pizter Horse Sale. I know most of you were totally looking forward to it--just kidding! Mike looks forward to it every year. It's in Nebraska, so of course Mike didn't go to it, he watched it live on the Internet. Which pretty much means that my husband was constantly in the computer room all weekend. He would eat and sleep in other rooms, and then it was back to the computer.(: Ethan, being the cowboy that he is, was more than happy to sit with Mike and watch the horses. Me and the girls went shopping, and while we were gone, Mike called me and, very nicely, asked if he could bid on a horse. Me, being the nice wife that I am-don't laugh, told him that he could only bid to a certain amount. He ended up getting a nice mare for only $325, which is a great deal. He is very proud of it, so I guess we'll just add it on to all of the other animals that we have-oh the life that I married into.(:


Of course the kids totally love it and think that we should keep Sue in the back yard--but we're not.(;

Karin, I should have warned you!! It's a never ending cycle. Mike is just like his dad! It's in his blood to love animals. Thank goodness I got rid of that "Love" when I got my own house. You're a great wife!

Why not have the horse in the back yard? Plenty of neighbors around here do. She would look great by the new playset!!
