Happy New Year 2014!

First:


And todays "fun":

So today we got snow so driving a pair is out of question again due to too slippery wheels on the pair carrige. I thought then that it is time to try to drive the same ponies in tandem as we have tried it long reining already. Well it did not quite work as expected - first Ivanhoe was the leading pony but lazy as... a shetland can be. Paulette was energetic and almost bumping into Ivanhoe. Sooo we took off all harnesses and change position of the ponies and what happens, suddenly Paulette became the lazy one and Ivanhoe energetic. Neither one of them would have moved properly as the leader if my husband had not been leading as if the position suddenly made them forget the meaning of "forward" Summa summarum - no more tandem for me thank you I'll be perfectly happy with a normal pair... Shetlands <3
