Happy new year to everyone - we thought that this week we would share our message as we start 2010 as yearlings. These birthdays are funny things - we thought that we would feel a bit more grown up when we woke up on New Year's Day, but in fact we both felt exactly the same as we did the day before - we checked with each other, but no difference!
Its been a quiet old time at the stables - everyone has been away and it has been very cold as well - we've been glad to come in every evening to be tucked up with lots of hay and out of the frost. It might all look very pretty, but it makes the ground very hard to walk on and a bit uncomfortable where it was all chewed up and muddy from the rain. Its also a bit harder to find decent grass during the day - we have to have a good look around to find bits where the sun has warmed the ground and the frost has melted off - Louise is very good at this, but I get a bit more impatient or maybe its that I'm just not so fussy (some might even say greedy - but I think I just have a healthy appetite).
The sheep and the Alpaca have moved back into the field next to us - the first day they were back Louise in particular wasn't so keen to walk past the Alpaca, but actually we were soon back in the routine of having neighbours and in fact Louise and the Alpaca spend a lot of time looking at each other over the fence (look at the photo and see what I mean!) - personally I think they have a bit of a thing going on!
A thing going on - really - Thelma may think shes older and wiser but really she can be a bit silly sometimes and gets the jitters far more easily than I do - so it will be interesting to see what 2010 brings - we've had a bit of a chat about this and we think that it could be quite an exciting year for us and one that will bring lots of changes - by the end of it we will certainly be older and who knows maybe even a little wiser.
Until next week - Thelma and Louise
