Miniature Horses

As I've briefly stated in one or two other posts, I have a mild obsession with all things miniature.  As a child I was a huge fan of the dollhouse and polly pocket...and from there my love for miniatures grew!  Today, one of my very favorite miniature things are miniature horses.  Have you ever seen one?  They are absolutely adorable!  We had one at the barn at Sewanee, his name was Biscuit and he had the bluest eyes and longest tongue you'd ever seen!  I like them more than regular horses because, although I enjoy riding, miniature horses are not so intimidating and they are so cute!

I've been asking my mom for years if I can have one...so far I haven't had any luck trying to put one in our backyard.  I'm hoping that one day we can have one down on our family farm (or maybe even two!) and I can come down and see them, they're great companions for regular sized horses!  Anyway, take a look at some of these presch animals:

Look at that sweet thing!

They like to socialize with all kinds of animals!

They get along great with dogs - Chip (my dog) would love them!

How can you resist?

So now that you know a little more about my love for miniature horses, what kind of things do you enjoy a lot?  What quirks shape who you are?  Do you love miniature horses as much as me :)

Have a great day!

Marcel the Shell...

...with shoes on

I love youtube videos, they're just hysterical to watch - I think because most of them are the perfect segment of time to keep your attention.  My all time favorite youtube is Marcel the Shell with shoes on, have you watched it?  If not check it out here:

The little shell is just so adorable!  Do you know what I where as a hat?  A lentil...ahhh love that shell!  Did you know that Marcel the shell is going to be a book?  I will definitely be buying that as soon as it comes out!

So this brings me to a topic of love that I have not written about yet, miniature things.  I know it probably sounds kind of strange but as a kid I just adored dollhouses and dioramas where you created a miniature scene.  As I've grown up my love of miniatures has continued...one day I'll write about my adoration for miniature horses!  Anyway, Marcel fits right into this category, it (not sure if Marcel is a boy or girl) is just so precious!

Do you have some type of weird thing that you love?  A collection?  World of Warcraft?  Embrace it and enjoy it, who cares what other people think!

Have a great weekend!
