It's been a LOOONG time!

I almost forgot that I had this blog!

I feel compelled to update you on how Santana is doing. I actually just moved her closer to our house 2 nights ago!

A lot has happened since the last time I posted, so I will try to paraphrase:

-I moved Santana from Trinity River Farm to Centerline Stables in Fort Worth. Centerline was AWESOME. The trainer was so great and it felt great to be at an Eventing barn with no kids!

-We put our house up for sale. After talking to my parents, they decided to GIVE us an acre of land if we would build a house on it. It was an offer that was too good to pass up, so we went ahead and decided we would work on selling our house. We thought it would take a while since there were at least 5 homes for sale on our street, but our house sold in about 3 weeks! This left us in a little bit of a predicament since we hadn't really planned anything out. We ended up moving in with my parents since we are building right next door to them. We figured we could save money for the new house this way. This left us about 30 miles (one way) from Santana. I thought I could manage it, but there is just not enough time in the day and during the week to get out to see her like I should, so...

-We moved Santana on Saturday! I was so sad to leave Centerline, but I had to do what was best for us at this time and right now it's for her to be close. She is literally 3 houses down from me now. And the best part is that I am not having to pay board! So not only is she ridiculously close, but I am saving money!

Sorry no pics right now, but I will get some up soon!
