http://thesixthstride.blogspot.com/2014/06/a-photo-shoot.html
Saturday, June 28, 2014. No Alex and I haven't ridden off into the sunset somewhere, we've just been very busy! Even though I hate pictures of me.we had a little photo session with a friend of mine who's a very talented photographer. If you've visited lately, you might have noticed some changes to my blog and my banner which includes a few of said photos. I've posted my favorites from the shoot here. Enjoy! Not sure why I was making that face, but find it hilarious that Alex looked embarrassed :-). Happy...

From Under the Dark Cloud: February 2013
http://fromunderthedarkcloud.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
From Under the Dark Cloud. Trying to get out. Thursday, February 14, 2013. I should still be angry. But I am not. I am numb. I watched the screen and waited, witholding my judgement, holding on to the only scant scrap of hope I could imagine from this scenario. Was he truly sorry? Had prison changed this young man for the better? No, but that was the fantasy I held to. I wanted a crystal ball. It had been five years and I noted the changes. His daughter was now seven. In turn, my sister read a statement ...

The Sixth Stride: Pepé Le Pew
http://thesixthstride.blogspot.com/2014/08/pepe-le-pew.html
Friday, August 8, 2014. Alex's love for his girls has calmed, but not left him. Only hopeful glances, no love songs last night. Perhaps he's feeling ashamed because it seems he's been recently sprayed by a skunk bwahaha! Poor guy, it's not terrible but he definitely stinks! On the plus side we had a fairly productive ride yesterday even if the skunk smell increased as he sweated :-). August 9, 2014 at 4:17 AM. Oh my the poor guy! His week just keeps getting better ;-P.

http://thesixthstride.blogspot.com/2014/08/moved.html
Wednesday, August 6, 2014. Alex and Bernie BFFs. Wow I can't believe it's August and we've been at the new farm for almost a month! Time is literally flying. it seems like yesterday that summer had just started. now all my friends kids are going back to school and people are talking about summer being over. Alex officially moved to the new farm July 13, 2014, but most of the week before and after was spent cleaning, prepping, moving and settling in to our new wonderful home. New Abode for Alex and Friends.

The Sixth Stride: Golf
http://thesixthstride.blogspot.com/2014/08/golf.html
Wednesday, August 13, 2014. This past weekend, I journeyed into uncharted waters. a golf tournament. I am NOT a golfer. despite having an abundance of patience I don't think I could ever play golf and would fully expect a round of golf to bring out my inner. In addition to the rare moments I can find equestrian events on TV. Interesting notes about golf. Following the players around the course watching to make sure no pictures are taken. If they catch someone taking a photo, they can literally kick t...

The Sixth Stride: Happy Birthday To Me
http://thesixthstride.blogspot.com/2014/04/happy-birthday-to-me.html
Tuesday, April 15, 2014. Happy Birthday To Me. Sorry for the radio silence, life has just been so busy. The good news, is that Alex has been doing really well. Last week, we even went on our first hack around the farm with friends! I don't want to jinx anything so I won't say we've finally gotten him straightened out, but I think we've made some really great progress. It's finally fun again! April 15, 2014 at 11:11 PM. He looks so shiny! Question- is that your County in the pics? April 16, 2014 at 8:35 AM.

The Sixth Stride: Saddle Stays :-)
http://thesixthstride.blogspot.com/2013/07/saddle-stays.html
Monday, July 29, 2013. Just a short post tonight. Ultimately, I've decided we're keeping the saddle, it's everything Alex needs right now and hopefully for a while during the filling out/growing new muscles phase. So yahoo, we've got a new saddle, finally! And look who earned himself pull-on bell boots since I walked into the barn and caught him trying to destroy another pair! July 30, 2013 at 12:24 PM. Glad the saddle stays! July 30, 2013 at 2:24 PM. Lauren @ She Moved To Texas. July 30, 2013 at 5:10 PM.
