TOO CUTE!!!! STOP IT, I CAN' TAKE ANYMORE!!! :D
Richie is so calm with his mini human!
Awesome thing is we now have TWO big riding horses that love kids and are so patient with their little people. Makes me tear up just thinking about it. I learned on green and half broke horses.. .:hu Feeling so blessed to have found this guy. :woot

@TAH he is 14.2 hands, basically right to at the horses/pony line depending who you talk to.

Jocelyn is 100% crazy about Richie. He will stand forever getting brushed. We all rode him this evening, well me and kiddos. First time since getting him home.

When I read that I was looking at the picture of her petting the bunny. You can only imagine what went through my mind (especially when I got to the "rode" part) given I can't recall everyone's animals' names and species off the top of my head.

So 5 bunnies are on their way to Oklahoma, George included. Keeping 2 does out of him. Now we've extra cages to wean bunnies.
So last fall I joined our local 4H council. My son is in his 2rd year of mini 4h.... anyways since I have a special interest in rabbits I had a chat with the rabbit leader, who is also an ARBA judge. Trying to determine why they have such restriction such as no mini 4Her's (they claim no cage space despite empty cages annually, and suggestions that they show and go home), rabbits have to be ARBA approved, no other rabbits even if pedigreed (excludes my velveteen lops ) and 2nd year members on up can ONLY show a rabbit they raised... while I get that rules have been placed I really feel some of these are overly restricting to a group that is not just about learning but also one that's Fun.... :he:barnie They complain about people no longer being in 4h due to sports, other activities and I am starting see why. :hit I love 4H... have looking forward to the day my kids were old enough to participate... hate this concept of the local leaders that things are working just fine.... anyone who is serious about 4h goes out of county... which is totally 100% stupid as our county is mainly agriculture. :mad:

There's "stupid" like this invading everything, everywhere... Kinda defeats the whole idea and mission of 4H...
