How about 3 full brothers in the same home?
Yes, that's right.
Remember I said someone was coming to look at Kai?
Kai and Nitro are joining Rio.
I couldn't be happier for th' boyz; this is the perfect home for all 3 of them.
I hadn't done anything with Kai since Christmas, and today he was as good as could be.
Now, about Nitro.....
My husband for quite some time has been unhappy with me starting and riding colts. He worries about me. And I agree- I am past the age where it's a good idea to get on the youngsters no matter how sweet they are. I can still do it, I just don't enjoy it much any more. I want a broke horse that I can just go have fun with- and, I want a mare to ride. So I asked if they would be interested in Nitro too.
They were.
And Nitro is joining his brothers in Alberta.
I'm over the moon!
Josie isn't too happy though. I'll have to find that perfect mare soon.

So awesome that they all went to the same home!! Going to be some good lookin' family photos for sure!
Lovely! Guess someone loves the horses you've produced!
Good luck with looking for that perfect mare!
I'm glad that they'll all be together! Are you selling Josie too?
No Josie won't be leaving any time soon.
Wonderful! Glad to know they are going to a good home. Hard to let them go, I bet. I have to agree with the hubby, if you fall off now, it is so much harder to heal than it was when we were youngsters.
Yes, It was a bit hard, I was kind of choked up when I walked away but it was a happy choked up.
A testament to the parents that they liked the first one so much they had to come back for more of the same. :)
I used love a young one or a quirky one, but yes as you age you stop enjoying riding them even if you still can, and you definitely stop bouncing. You get sookier too. Last time I was bucked off, I cried because it meant my mare and I weren't sympatico. :) that gets so much more important to you as you age too, that bond. You don't care so much about riding just anything, you just want that one good horse and that bond. I must admit I do love mares best too. :)
TL Merrybard, you explained it perfectly.
wonderful! obviously they know good horses when they see them. Glad you are going to find a good mare, as good as you are at starting the young ones I worry too
Wow, it's so cool that the whole family will be riding siblings!
Now that is a great place for your boys...but you will miss them I am sure. You did a great job with training and getting them off on the right foot. Are you 100% on a mare...so moody..but knowing you you will find a perfect one that never gets her nose out of joint. :)
That's just awesome!! Hope they give you some updates now and again!
Happy mare shopping!!
I was so confused because I missed this post. I have got to be better about staying caught up on the blogs!
It is pretty cool that the boys are all still together in one family.
