Two Birthday Girls

Our Cowboy and his Family have returned from Michigan. And, on July 11, the Antonsen Family from Hartford SD celebrated Christina's birthday with Prince at DoubleHP Horse Shelter.

in the photo above. July 11, 2009. After being gone (the whole family) to Ann Arbor Michigan for over a month, the Antonsen Family returned home to South Dakota. Paul, the little cowboy, had TWO open heart surgeries there. Now he has a mechanical valve. Paul is 5 years old. His mom, Deb, stands by Hazel Schjodt (in the cap). Hazel won the this painting in our raffle while the Antonsens were in Michigan. The Artist, Lisa Madsen from Baltic, SD, drew Hazel's name. And Hazel immediately donated the painting to Paul & his Family. The painting is called "Prince in Paint." next to Paul in the photo above are his two sisters Christina and Amanda, little brother Gabriel, Dad Randy, and of course DoubleHP Prince.

In the photo below, Christina Antonsen (in the pink shirt) visited Prince on her birthday July 11, 2009. With the help of many nice people, the Antonsen Family is sponsoring Prince for another year!

We had other recent Birthday visitors too. The Heeney Family from Tea, South Dakota.

It was Brooklyn's Birthday on July 15, 2009. They came and visited King at DoubleHP Horse Shelter. Well, they met all of the horses. But they got a special treat from King.

Below is Brooklyn's little sister Kyla. She was afriad to even pet the horses when she first got here. But by the end of the visit, she wanted to ride. ALONE!

The Heeney Family Molly, Brooklyn, Dad Sean with Kyla, and Nephew Ben.

and of course DoubleHP King. Thanks for the donation and the visit. Come again, please!

We will send you a CD with the photos in the mail.
