Ready to be Shocked, Amazed & Bored?

About a week and a half ago I was tagged by sweet Sandy at Dream ~ Create ~ Inspire. She tagged me to tell a bit about myself using the letters from my middle name. Well - I tried ..honestly I did..but my middle name is Jeanette. I think it was the 3 E's that killed me. I promised her I would give you a look see into my 'ahemm' interesting life later...and here it is!
This is my husband Don and I. I do not normally have such bad taste in jewelry, but a party boat went by and pelted us with these sparkley things. I later gave most of them to a little girl who was thrilled!

I have a Dorky look on my face, huh???

Okay - yeah, I am buying a BMW motorcycle! I have always wanted to learn how to ride and one day I just up and signed up for a 2 day class to see if I really liked it ...and I did!!! Can't wait to get my very own bike now...and yes Dad, I will always wear my helmet, jacket, gloves and boots!

This is my hair. I have had a life long love affair with long hair since I was a child and even though I had to go to extrodinary lengths to get it, I LOVE MY HAIR!

I LOVE American Saddlebred Horses!!! This is not your ordinary lay down, dead dog broke, will babysit you on a trail ride if you get drunk, kind of horse....NOOOO - Saddlebreds are big, bright, intellegent and full of spirit. They are called the Peacock's of the Show Ring for a reason..because they love to strut their stuff! Yep - that is my kind of horse!


Yes - this is the love of my life Madison Nicole Snyder, also known as my first Grandchild!

This is the farm that my blog is named after. Equus Villa is Latin for Horse Farm. My heart and soul are in this land. The moment I walked on it, I knew God told me it was to be my home. I designed it from the ground up to the decor. The origonal plans were to build a normal house further back on the property a few years after this was built, but many things happened, including September 11th. That is still the plan. The date is just not set in stone yet.

And Lastly - this is where my Father lives and where I stay when I am with him. We are way up high on the right side.
