Lewie's Ride




Uncle Mitch's horse Roxy had her little filly and she is a precious gift!  We hurried down to the pasture to meet her with everyone.  It was so nice to see Uncle Mitch and Aunt Rach happy and excited about their new filly.  They certainly deserved this bundle of joy and she is a good distraction from the worries of the hospital.  Very fittingly her official name is Lewie's Ride and Zoey for short!  Luke and Brody were so excited to see her.  Their daddy gets very nervous around horses so Brody stayed in his arms.  This didn't stop him from squealing and pointing at the horsies!  Luke loved being able to pet Zoey and laughed hysterically when Uncle Mitch would pick her up!  

While we were visiting her our sweet Lewie had a little setback but the doctors were able to get it under control.  He was bleeding in his stomach and they quickly got him the help he needed.  I think it is a tender mercy that Mitch and Rach were distracted for this setback and didn't have to go through it since every setback takes its toll on them emotionally.  I hope that Zoey can bring them some joy!  We are so happy to have Zoey and cannot wait to watch her grow!
