BIG day for Bridle Oaks ! {Rustic wedding venue}

Well today was a huge day at the Bridle Oaks Barn... Our animals

came home to stay! Falcon, our horse, joined Finch, our donkey 

(hopefully his best mate), to check out their new digs and get to know

each other. They only rubbed noses today. In a few days we will 

let them be together for a little while. When Falcon realized he had 

a potential friend staying over, he got VERY excited... as you can see

in this video. He kept running back over to the fence where he 

could see Finch. Ashley and I are as excited as can be about our 

new additions! We even took a Falcon Selfie! The rain made it a bit of a 

bummer, as I would've stayed out there longer, but tomorrow is a new day 

and I'll run over first thing to see how they did. Falcon would be a great horse

for a bride to ride into her ceremony on, so if anyone is interested in that,

let me know! 

(check out this last photo, where Falcon 

is totally giving me a kiss on the forehead!)

Falcon and Finch coming home Saturday! { Bridle Oaks Barn }

Well… the time has finally come. This Saturday, our beautiful paso-fino horse

Falcon, and his cohort and partner in crime, Finch, will finally get to meet 

each other and check out their new digs too !  Falcon has been with a wonderful

trainer in Deland for two months. He has been getting fit, healthy, and we have also

been taking riding lessons on him. (myself and my sis-in-law Ashley, that is) 

We couldn't be more excited to introduce them to their new barn and surroundings.

Ashley and I will continue riding Falcon and learning from Judy, our trainer. 

Bridle Oaks barn wouldn't be complete without a couple of farm animals, and we

are truly blessed to have inherited such a great horse with the property. For those

of you who may not know, horses are pack animals and need a friend or two to keep

them happy. Donkeys are wonderful friends for horses. Plus… Finch will also

protect Falcon from any predators (like coyotes) I know it sounds crazy, but it's true!

Photos below! 

(Finch has his winter coat on, so he's looking a bit shabby here!) 

Oh, and don't they have the cutest little trailer to ride home in?
