This photo is from October 2008....and on November 3rd, 2008 my husband and I rescued and purchased Lycius Two, aka Lazarus, our mighty OTTB and my first horse!
Little did Laz know (or maybe he did) all the years of "Can I have a pony PUHLEASE?!!" of love was going into him...
Look at this handsome beast...and my handsome horse too! ;)
What fun we've had these past two years, and lots of learning (eesh!)...and we will continue to have for YEARS to come!
We love you Lazarus!!!
Congratulations! and I'm glad he's doing well so far on his recovery!
