No, not Navy Seals, but real ones. Not a common sight around here so I was really delighted, when Ingólfur called me and told me there were 3 of them close to the coast, probably that close I could get some nice pics. It was nice watching them a bit and trying to get as close as possible, they were posing nicely and not scared at all.

Hugleikur got lucky yesterday and evaded being castrated. So after deworming and trimming his hooves he got a ticket to the stallionspasture, where he met his new friends. He'll stay there until fall, when we'll decide what's going to happen with him.
Pandóra got her pedicure and deworming, too, and went to the summerpasture. Unfortunately for her, she has to get around there without her mum as Vordís was supposed to meet Óskasteinn frá Íbishóli and  so it was just a short meet and greet when we arrived at Hagi. 
Afterwards we drove Vordís and Flugsvinn to the stallionspasture in Skagafjörður. Flugsvinn is going to meet Hákon frá Ragnheiðarstöðum and we hope for a nice foal next year. Brownpinto would be nice. Óskasteinn wasn't home yet, but Vordís already met some other mares that were waiting for him. Hope she'll soon be in foal and we can get her back home. On the way back home we stopped for a quick takeaway and whilst waiting for Ingólfur, we got a nosy guest looking for food. Quite cheeky guy!

It was time to fetch her and give her hooves a good trim. Things didn't go that well last time, but today she behaved very well. After trimming and deworming she got a lift to the summerpasture where she'll stay with the other mares and youngsters until fall.

... at least almost. Today the cows at Laxamýri had their first day of summer, which means they were allowed to go outside for the first time this year. Usually they are hopping, running, rolling over and over all very excited. Fun to watch them. Thanks again for having us!

Vordís and Þrá took their leaves today and went to the summerpasture. Pandóra and Hugleikur were anyway really busy making Fönix move and play. Things have been going really well the last days and we hope it'll stay like that. Ingólfur has to do most of the job as my knee is still not the way I'm allowed to do a lot of things around the horses. The mares were happy to arrive at Hagi and Vordís took the lead straight away. Better behave when she's around. But it will just be a short stop for her as both she and Flugsvinn are supposed to go to stallions in Skagafjörður later this summer. Vordís is going to meet Óskasteinn frá Íbishóli and Flugsvinn Hákon frá Ragnheiðarstöðum as we won a studfee earlier this year. Hope we'll get nice foals next year. Last but not least Ögn is going to meet Höfði frá Húsavík, who is owned by our friend Gísli.

It's time to start Preschool for Hugleikur and Pandóra. Ingólfur walked the two of then and their mums up to the stable today. They'll stay together a few days and then we'll move the mares away and have Fönix as an uncle and anchor for them. They'll learn how to be haltered, tied and led, lift their hooves and be groomed and last but not least how to walk into a trailer. Looking forward to seing what kind of learners they are.

Wow it's amazing how time's flying! Ingólfur's nice had her confirmation today and we of course made the cake or cakes to be true. Think she really enjoyed her day with friends, family and a huge amount of presents.
