As many of you know Lou pony had quite the colic scare the week that Mike and I returned from the wedding. He ended up spending the weekend at the vet clinic and was sent home that Monday with a clean bill of health and all of us scratching our heads but he's home which is what truly matters. Thinking back to those long scary nights at the clinic makes me realize how blessed I am that even in the scariest moments I could look up and there was Mike patiently waiting, hoping and praying next to the stall. I am so thankful that I have such a caring and supportive man by my side. Mike also fielded many of the Lou related questions and kept my friends up to date in the happenings when I was too out of it to handle much more than wandering through the work day. Speaking of friends, I am so thankful to have so many caring people in my life! Thank you to all of you for your phone calls, texts and messages asking about Lou and sending up prayers. Thank you also to everyone who continues to check in on him...he is happy to be home and on a fattening up diet. I am also so thankful for our wonderful vets the Bakers. They were and always are wonderful about answering all of my questions, sending updates and letting me visit at crazy hours. Plus they always know just when you need a hug.
Having Lou pony back home at the college has been wonderful and I'm pretty sure he'll be spending the rest of his retirement well within eyesight!
This weekend I am heading up to Charleston,SC to close out our hunt seat shows for the fall and then I will be judging at a show in Perry, GA on Sunday so things continue to be crazy busy here. But I will be sure to blog more often in the quiet days of Thanksgiving break and I'll be sure to add the recipe for the super simple and yummy pumpkin spice macaroons I made last week. Thanks so much to the Gaspard family for the food processor as it made the macaroon process so simple!
Love y'all!
