Homestead dreaming

11:52 PM, Saturday, January 7 .. 3 comments .. Link
Yesterday Shayla and hubby and I went to go see the movie Dreamer.  We had intended to for quite some time because Shayla has taken a great liking to horses and cowgirlish stuff.  Also, there have been several occassions when people have told her that she looks so much like Dakota Fanning, the young movie actress (Dakota  on left and Shayla on right).



We thoroughly enjoyed the movie and left the theater dreaming about what it would be like for Shayla to own her own horse.  Of course that led to my own dream of owning our own piece of land; therefore, I found this post applicable enough to homesteading to write it up today.


Both Shayla and I looked online and chose the horses we would want if we could pick one now.  The horse on the left is the one I chose - beautiful eyes!  The adorable horse on the right was Shayla's choice.  Of course there were about fifty other horses that Shayla saw and wanted to buy, but now she has a goal to save toward buying her own horse.  Guess we better start saving for some land!

Whew, your daughter does look like Dakota! Actually I thought it was 2 pictures of Dakota, until I reread, and relooked.
The horses are beautiful! I just love the color of them both.
