she's 8 now.

she's a norwegian trotting horse (norwegian standard bred?)

she's taller than she looks in these photos (16+ hands)

it got down to 0 degrees for about a week, so we got her a blanket.

she's only been driven, but hasn't been ridden.

she has a sweet, quiet manner, but it seems like she doesn't know much.

when the weather gets better, we'll start working with her. she is wondering where all of the other horses are. the neighbor has one, but he's been indoors in the snowy, slippery weather, as he's getting a bit old.  pinky will come home at the end of the month to keep her company.

short legs make for a bumpy trot.

out in the pasture at the riding school.

pinky apparently likes to roll in the mud.  and we've got plenty of that this year.

everyone needs a pony they can play with at some point.

pony or piglet?
