     Location: SW North Dakota | FOUND ONE!
Bought her sight unseen, she fit most of my daughter's fussy criteria and IMO was fairly priced at $3500. She is coming 5 yo, and has been steadily ridden with a few months of prof. reining training since she was 3. Got her picked up yesterday and she's a dolly! I knew if I waited long enough, we'd find the right horse within our budget, and I am SUPER happy with the value of this little horse. We've only been looking since March of 2015. hahah.

     Location: SW North Dakota | The photo was in the Olive Garden parking lot where we picked her up (haha) and not a great conf. shot, but she's cute and pretty correct, and was REALLY sweet all day yesterday. Here are her bloodlines- nothing fancy, but again, we wanted to buy the horse, not necessarily the papers- although we wanted something that was bred with a little promise... http://www.allbreedpedigree.com/beduinosbeenfrosted

     Location: SW North Dakota | Still thinking she was a good buy, after a week! She is a bit spoiled about being ridden alone and away from the barn, we gave her 2-3 days to settle in before Ell rode her. Nothing too horrible, but fair to say she hasn't had a "real" day's work yet. The first day, I got a snapchat of the back of the mare's head that said, "She wanted to go home, so I fixed that. She's really soft- i like it!"
She's ridden her 3 times, out in open country. She says she's getting better with the little "I wanna go home" fits. I think she is going to be nice- she has a fun little personality and has been re-named "Fergie."
I'm still rather housebound after my knee surgery, so I still don't have any good conformation pics, but I'll attach last night's snap. hehe.

| I think after they start moving out and seeing some country they start to enjoy it as much as we do :). I had a colt that would do 3-4miles before hitting the arena and loooved it. His engine was pretty big :) |
