Hello! Here's a little about me and my familyHI,
My name is Alona Millison, I'm 34 years old (Virgo) if anyone cares, it may explain some things though 
I've been married since I was 19 and my hubby was 18, that was almost 14 years ago now. We have an 8 year old daughter named Lily.
Lily is such a daddy's girl! At this point she would rather ride her 4-wheeler than the horses but I'm being patient and hoping it (horse crazy disease) hits her at about 12 years old like it did me. She likes them and plays sometimes with me but it's just not her passion at this point and that's OK...  She does love the "saddle club" though and wants to learn to ride English and jump because of that.
We live on 11 acres in the TINY town of Lyman WA. My husband is not very fond of horses (he is scared of them I think ) you know when men are scared of something they say they don't like it. At least mine does :lol: He is scared of heights too ...oh yea... I mean doesn't like heights. His passion is boating, so we have to share the "hobby" $$  He is very supportive of my horsey habit though :D
My herd:
Joker~G, Morgan/TB cross retired 22 years old and the love of my life!
Pistol~G, appendix QH 6 yrs old VERY naughty LBE
Sweet Pea~M, QH 12 (I think) RBI my daughters horse
Misty~M, Friesian/QH cross RBI/E
Spanky James~G, Appendix QH (Pistol's lil' brudder) LBI extremely smart!
We also have 3 dogs:
Cleo~12 yr old lab/shepherd mix
Cabela~3 yr old Vizsla
Helga~ 4mo. old Vizsla (Cabela's daughter)
3 cats: two outside, Patches, and Cookie boy
one inside, Mister chancie fancy pants.
and some chickens.
I am a stay at home mom for the time being and have been studying hoof care for about 2 years. I've been trimming my own horses feet for the last year and am proud of myself for it. 
I have never cared about getting strings, or officially passing levels, as long as I know I can do it that's enough for me.
I am self assessed level 1 and mid level 2 on a lot of things. I just haven't stuck with one horse though so some of them can do level 3 things and some can't...yet. They are all level 1 grads though IMO
I am SO happy to be here I can hardly stand it!!
Looking forward to getting to know you all even better!

Hasn't your avatar been photoshopped? I always assumed those curls were added.
