Hi Everyone!

It's hard to believe we are already heading toward the holiday season. It's especially difficult to fathom here in Los Angeles, when we are still having 80 degree weather! That is one of the things I miss about the East Coast, the seasons.

I have some wonderful news to share with you. I have a new adddition to my family! His name is "Romero." He is a 7 year old, 16.1 hand, dapple grey, Spanish Andalusian Gelding. We have posted from photos from "Romero's" arrival. He came a long way on this van. The entire trip took five days and needless to say, I was a mess the entire time! I was working the morning he was to arrive, but luckily I had a break between scenes and headed down to the barn just as the truck pulled in.

As you'll see from the pictures, he is an incredibly handsome boy and boy, does he know it! After having "Andarra" in my life for such a long time, he has some pretty big shoes to fill. So far, we're getting along very well. He knows a great deal, having come from the East Coast where he was the Exhibition Ambassador for a farm in Saratoga Springs, New York. I look forward to learning what he knows and having a lot of fun with him. Right now, we're just taking our time getting to know each other. I promise to keep you posted as we make progress.

Happy Holidays!
