Welcome “Tucker” and “Lily” to the Green Barn!

Thankful for… a Merry Christmas post

On this Christmas, I am thankful.

I am thankful for my wonderful husband, and 2 adorable snow-puppies… who happily and without complaint, spent our first white Christmas in Tennessee taking care of the 9 Green Barn ponies.
