We Did A Fashion Show With Our HORSES!

Good morning guys. Welcome to today. It's a cold one. Today's going to be the coolest day of the year so far. Look at the moon. It's a good one. Is it full Sam? It's kind of full yeah. The camera is kind of blurry I think because we came from the nice warm house into the freezing cold. I don't know if you guys are like me. I get so hot in the night. When I wake up in the morning and I come downstairs I'm always so hot. It takes me a couple hours to cool down. It still feels good coming out into the freezing cold. The calm before the storm. Wow, quiet. Hi, Anya. 50 degrees. 50 degrees in this barn. Everybody's sleeping. They're like, don't wake us up. Did she catch a mouse? A front trappler. So I have a super busy day today, four of my six grandkids are coming after school so So, that means I gotta be on my game and get everything done today because kids are a lot. Isn't it so cozy that Sam and I do chores together? Do you like doing chores together? Not this early in the morning. Do you like doing chores together? Don't mind it. I like it. I like a man that works. This is the problem in winter. Can you see it? Hello ladies. Hello ladies. Hi Button. Hi Jim Jim. Hi Opal. This is Opal. Hi Maple. And then that is little, what's your name? It's too early. Pippa. It's little Pippa. Goats are like people. Some goats think way too much. That's like Toffee. It's like Lola. Some goats don't think hardly at all. That's like posh. Poor little Oakley there, she's not a fighter, she doesn't fight for food, we have to feed her at night on her own, she won't eat if there's any competition at all, and her mom is the same. I give her mom the littlest amount of grain every morning, and she gets a little bit of grain at night, because I don't know how many babies she's got on board there, and they all get grain at night. But I want to make sure that she has everything she needs. Getting to spend time with them, love on them while they're half asleep. Hazel's so fluffy. Did you guys know that Hazel and Cricket come from the same lines? See, she ran away. Everybody ran away because here comes Winston. Here comes Winston to get my cord for my camera. You're not coming with me, so go away. Last night, are you ready? Last night when we came down to do chores. It was freezing in the barn. It's because we leave the doors open. I always wish we had like a nice big light out here that we could leave on. We're done chores and the moon is still up. No sun. Actually that's not true. The sun is coming up. It is gorgeous. I've never ever seen sunrises before in my life until we moved to a farm. Never ever. Because they never got up that early. I've always been an early riser, but not that early. But look at the way our house is situated. In the morning, I can watch the sun rise. And then at night, I watch the sun set. I feel like every house that's ever been built should all be facing east and west. The windows should be facing east and west so that we can always see the sun. Shoot, I just remember I need to get something. I need to get... some more zucchini because there's only three of those muffins that i made on sunday. today is tuesday. three. and you know i asked gabby if she liked them and she said yeah but they're not chocolatey enough. she's just eating brownies. they were literally the most chocoliest muffins i've ever eaten before and they taste as good as grocery store muffins. i made them for my grandkids But clearly, my grandkids didn't get any. I'm not going to get any. But thankfully, I thought ahead and froze a lot of zucchini in the last two years. Sounds like, what are you doing in my domain? Let's go see. Oh, it's cold out here. It's happening in the hood. Nobody's even in here. They're all outside. Oh, there's Stormy. Hi, Storm. There's Ladybug. Hi, babe. This is zucchini. I'm going to use it to make muffins. You won't like it. Actually, you probably would like it. Nope, not for horses. Sophie rode yesterday. Yes, she did. Oh, everybody's in now. You waiting for breakfast? Yeah, you waiting for breakfast? You gotta wait. Sam's coming. Guys, did you see that? I've created a monster. I've created so many monsters. Do it again, Stormy boy. Again, right here, look. He walked up to me and he just put a big kiss on me. Because... Yeah, he's used to. I've been making him kiss me before I give him a treat. It's coming. Sam's over there making breakfast. Cats are eating. Everybody's eating. It is actually cold. Cold outside. What the heck? How come I can't open the door? Follow the cord. Sam's charging something. I need to go through this. I told the girls it's starting to get cold at night. I need to figure this out. Our blankets, our horse blankets are covered in cobwebs. And I'm going to want Gabby to get up there. I have a feeling she's not getting up there. All right, so let's talk horse blankets. We haven't done them for a couple of years. I wanted to see how our horses were going to be without a blanket. Some of our horses, like our minis, they're really fluffy, don't really need a blanket. I don't think Honey's ever had a blanket and she gets really fluffy. And then Storm and Penny don't really get a heavy, heavy coat, but they come inside. They're never outside, like in the snow, they are, but they can come in. So Gabby and I were talking about Storm, tell them about Storm. I have to come over here. Tell them the story about Storm. He'll rip off every single blanket we put on him. He rips off every blanket that you put on him. And it's no joke. Unless you put something on him that's like... So if Storm gets hot, he's hot for five seconds and then that's it. He rips them off, which makes me like, oh, it doesn't help that he runs around like an idiot. Yeah. So he runs not so much as anymore, but he'll run around or he'll get mad and he'll fight the other horses and then be so hot and then he'll rip off. It doesn't matter if it's brand new. It doesn't matter. One time we went to the barn when we boarded them and we had just put a brand new blanket on him and he was running. Oh, it's big. And... We found his blanket in the field, brand new, completely ripped off of him. The whole chest part still attached. It's attached. No, that looks like. Yeah, so I don't think we should keep the ones. Yeah, but look at Willow's. Willow's is too big for her. All right, Willow's is in good condition. Willow's is too big for who? For her. I don't know, let's try it. It's been too big since we got it. Get it down, because she's a chunker. All right, so we both mostly just need to know that we have a blanket for Storm. It's a little warm. Wow, should I bring these in and wash them? I think I should wash them. That's, uh, Chino's old one. It's heavy. Storm would rip it. All right, so what's Storm's preferred blanket? He likes a cooler under a rain sheet. Oh yeah, that's Storm's. Oh yeah, that used to be Yeah, it has storm on it. What is that one? Perfect condition, other than it's dirty. I should. I want to take a really cold winter day one. So he will wear a really warm one until he gets hot. Yeah, so we only put really warm ones on him on really cold days where we have to go and double up on our other horses. All right, so Gabby thinks that Storm needs an insulated rain sheet. Yeah, we normally put this one on him. All right, I think this is good even for now. All right. Well, I think I should, I should wash them. All right. So we only use insulated rain sheets. And the only reason we use those is because a rain sheet, it actually makes you cold unless it's a summer, any other season you need insulation. That's an easy fix right there. Yeah. That's the one he always wears. Yeah. All the rips on it. Oh yeah. All right. Alright, take it down and we'll try it. In fact, take down Storm's. Take down the blue one. We're going to try it on him. This is gonna break. Gabby, you weigh two pounds. I'm pretty sure it can hold you. Yeah, we'll try that one on Storm. If you fall, viral video right there. Push her off, quick. Go. Push her off, quick. Get that blue one. Go. Yeah, we bought that a long time ago. It was left out in the sun, Sophia. It was green. It used to be really dark green. And it does look moldy, but it's not. No, that's the color it used to be. It's literally wool inside. I love that. That would be so nice. I don't even know if that will fit anybody. Chinos, yeah. You get chinos. All right, let's try that on Storm. So right now we're doing a little fashion show with our horses. If you sew it, which one? I don't think Honey needs a blanket, but yeah, we can try it. I mean, I want to get honey a new one. If yeah, there's a hood. So because our horse is really warm. Oh my gosh. Yeah. Wow. All right. I need a blanket for Penny too. So this is going to be Penny's blanket. All right. Take that baby down. Just throw that one down, Gabby. I want to try it. Okay, so that one you think will be for Lady? Well, because I fit Chino. All right, we're going to try that one on Lady. This one on Storm. Let me see this one. This one's Penny's. Oh, this is not Penny's anymore. Look at that. That's split right down the middle. So that one can go in the garbage. This one. Gabby, I need you to go up there one more time. This is going to have to be Penny's. So Penny has arthritis and I feel like she did really bad last winter. Lift me up. I got you. Not on my ribs. I'm ticklish. I was just going to grab it. It worked. There we go. All right. That's too bad because that's a nice. It's lighter than I thought. All right. Let's go. Everybody grab a blanket for your horse. Which one? This one. This one. What one? Blue. Blue. What about the red? Oh, get the red. Why don't we try both on Storm? Because I love the red. Oh wait, hang on. I got to undo these. All right, I'll meet you out there. Oh, see? It's like colder out here. Hi, Penny. Guess what you get? Guess what you get? A purple blanket. Look at that. She's like, I do not want that. And we have blankets in here too. So that's Gracie's. Why do we have it in here? I think... Oh, no. No! Ha, ha, ha, ha. Daddy's going to scare the heck out of the horses. Storm will go flying. All right. Are you okay? All right. So we're going to try. Yeah. I don't think this horse will need one. I know Penny needs one. I hate that she has this big scar, but try one on just in case. Storm's like, I'm coming. I'll come see. Oh, he's still eating. Don't spook. Oh gosh. I don't know if she's ever had a blanket on before. Oh, she's, she's tucking her head. She's like, okay. All right. That's getting washed. All right. How does she fit it though like we didn't have oh this was Chino's look at that it fits her nice I feel like it's a little long it is a little long you know a little long that just barely fit you know by the way yeah his butt was like half hanging out of it and he's like I'm getting one you're getting one why are your eyes dirty All right. So we got one. Put it outside. If you, well, don't go outside yet. Put it in one pile because I'm going to wash them. Okay. That's one. I was thinking we're going to have to buy a lot of blankets this year. I'm going to wash them though. Take them in. I can't take them in right now because we have a bunch of company coming over. Hi. Wow. Stormy, you have, you impressed me. Oh, is that like a bumblebee? No, I'm talking about that. It looks like mud. Gotta get that tail off. Good job. Mud. Alright, so what are we thinking? What do you think? Stormy? Ew, caterpillar. Alright, so it's got a couple of little bites. Little marks. Fits his butt. Yeah, it's good. I could probably sew it. Do you want to just get her a new one? Well, one for honey. Because she won't really need it, but if this will fit her. All right, let's try it. So what she's saying is, why waste money on a horse that's not going to wear a blanket? Well, he gets a blanket on during really cold days, right? Or no, because she's old. Penny? Yeah. He likes bread. So which one do you like best? Don't you dare try it. You think he wants to bite you? He always does it whenever you do it at the front on those blankets. He does want bite? So that one's a bit bigger. He just does that. I think that's too big. That's okay. That's what he thinks about you. He always does it. Oh look at that's quite tight in there. I'm trying to put on a blanket. Is that tight? No I just put it on a little tight. This uh I don't think it was his actually. I think this is Chino's. That's heavy. Yeah I think I've only put a blanket on there like twice. Alright, so Storm's got two. Lady's got one. Penny's got her head. Oh, my gosh. It is ripped. Yeah, that bit. If you take it off like that, you don't get shocked because it just shocks the horse instead. It's cute, actually. She looks so cute in a blanket. I think people just put blankets on their horses because it's cute and it's something to do. Makes you feel better. Unless your horse is outside all the time. I'm not doing it up because I'm lazy. Yeah, it fits you. We don't want to put her in a blanket though, because she grows. All right. Now help me do Penny. All of our horses are like, yeah, yeah. All right. I'll show that. That'll be relaxing. I'm going to watch a show tonight. I'm going to go throw that in the wash right now. And then I'll, or maybe I should sew it before I, ew, what is that? All right, Penny. Penny looks like she is fluffy. Look at her. Fluffy. You're fluffy. Penny ran. I told Abby to get her for me. You have to ask Penny's permission. You ask the mayor's permission. Permission. Oh, I know she likes you. She's always liked you. I don't know why you've ever thought she... She doesn't let me pet her, but now she... She doesn't let anybody pet her. As soon as she got outside, she was waiting. Oh good. All right, so we're gonna try Penny. So Penny and Storm, they're both older and I think... Is Penny older than Storm? Is Penny a year younger than Storm or a year older? She's a year older. Okay, all right, so Penny you're the old girl you get the blanket She looks like she's in heat or she's been in heat. All right, so Gabby says is she fine with me Just throwing it over her. No. No, she's not. She's fluffy though. Oh my gosh Good girl. I'll get a treat for you for that. I like to give her a treat when she does something good Oh something's in there. I don't know what it is It has like a buckle in the front. Instead of the clips, oh I hate those Good girl pickle. It's big. It's big. I did it all the way up in the front. It's really big. I hate those ones because see how they like when they're big they hang off down the front. Just take one. One. All right so what am I gonna do? Yeah but it's really ripped. Hold on. Here give me one more treat back. Well you can have them. Because as Gabby throws this up. Let me get this Just branch out of your hair. Look at that bug. Crazy ew and you're leaving it on you. I don't get to see it. How dare you well, I don't know where it went You can look for it Sophie. It's okay, baby. It's okay. I know she's just swinging around good girl It was really ripped on both sides. Yeah Well, this is clearly Penny's blanket because she's a fighter I mean all it is is that top piece I've been stormed at that door. Oh, i'm sure Storm did that to her but it fits her so what size is this thing this is A 76, because she's short. Good girl. I mean, I think that piece is completely missing, and then she's got that piece. All right, I'm going to have to get Penny a new one. I think Penny's a 76. A 76? Yeah. What's Storm? 78. Eight. 78. And the lady's like an 80 or an 81. Yes, we know. When I watch TV, if Sam and I are watching a show, which we did last winter, It's a little bit harder than I... I need something to do, so I either crochet or I use like, yeah, she's our Barbie girl. All right, I can sew that. I'll sew that. I have two to sew. Here, give her a treat, Sophie. Should've kept the treats. Give her a treat. Yeah, oh, it fits good. She's like, yeah. Did you try one on Willow? Because Willow, Willow's fits her. Got it like last year, not last year. Well, let's see, because she's a chunk. He does not like it when I do this. Oh, you know what he did to me today? Well, no wonder. When I grab his top lip. Listen, you know what he did to me today? I've been like making him kiss me every time I give him a treat. So I walked up to him today and he smashed his nose into my face so fast. Yeah, he was wanting a treat. She's a pain. I'm going to put this on and don't freak out, okay? All right, let's see if she freaks out. She hates halters and blankets. Has been worked with to death, but she spent 15 years not being worked with. Good girl. Her hair's only going to get a little bit longer. Yeah, he'll need a blanket. Definitely still big on her, so. Oh, yeah, it was big on her. All right. I told you. A little big isn't going to hurt her. Yeah, but we want to buy one small enough, so. Yeah, it's hard to buy blankets. We're going to buy the newest one. Ew, look at that. Yeah, that's a pain. Ew, ew. They're those Asian beetles. They're just those Asian beetles. All right, so she's probably going to need a blanket to wear. He's going to need a blanket to wear. I know. Penny's going to wear a blanket, and then that's it. Possibly Lady. Lady's fine. Yeah. I don't think Lady will need one. Yeah. Wait, would Lady's blanket fit Penny? No, no. It's the biggest one. Yeah. All right. Comment below. If you take off your leg straps and then years later you throw them all out, you know, they're dusty when you're choking, taking off the rat off the leg wraps. Oh my gosh. I know. I want, I wanted to try that one on. It's ugly because it got sun bleached but it's wool like even if I put it on Penny at night and she just like snuggles into it because she needs something to keep her warm at night. That wool one is way better than that one so I'm going to wash that one. It's an 80 and it was too small for Storm. It's a small 81. I also always cut off these D-rings because it costs a lot of That's a lot of money to buy D-rings. Yeah, Storm was the most expensive horse. He broke every blanket. He doesn't ever chase her though. You got to come on this side. Come around. Okay. Watch out. It's going in. Poor Penny. Hope that's not a sign. Won't you not need one this morning? No, I got one for her. I'm just going to wash it. Or actually, I might end up buying her a new one. Don't you know that you're just the way you are.
