The 6th Adventure of The Traveling Hoofpick

The magical Traveling hoofpick was passed on to me from Launa. So here we are, letting the magic of the Hoofpick grace my life next with its mystical powers!

Our special day was my daughters 13th birthday. Yes, she woke up that morning, sat straight up in bed and said, "I now know everything" Isn't that how teenagers think?

First thing that morning we wanted to share the excitement with our horses. If it was not for them, I would never have found HGS, which means I would never have made all the special friends AND would not have experienced the magic of the THP!

So here is Me, Hannah (my wild teen)and Amber her horse. Notice the birthday hats! You won't find Dubie near them. He thought those cone shaped hats were horse eating monsters!



And here is the Birthday girl.



Amber wanted in on the magic, so we sprinkled her with it.



Then Dubie wanted to know what all the fuss was about.



We had planned a trip to Dave & Busters, an adult type restaurant/arcade for the day. But Hannah opened her presents first. Again the THP was involved.



And we made sure that the THP was part of the celebration of the cake. After convincing hubby that it was clean and there would be no scary horse hoof debris on the cake, we had a piece.




After Dave & Busters, we took a mom & daughter pic with, yes you guessed it, the Traveling Hoofpick.



So now we're at the end of our journey and I must pass it on to go into the world and spread more magic. So I take this last picture to share where it all started. It was a wonderful day...thank you Cyn. And Thank You Launa for sending it my way.

AWESOME PICS!!!!

Sounds like you guys really showed the THP a good time.

How special that the hoofpick got to witness your daughters transformation from child to teenager

I especially like the picture in the cake

Did you notice how the THP was started on May 13th..and well it ended up at your place on your daughter's 13th Birthday?! ... 13 IS an odd number!! LOL

Thanks for sharing a special moment in your daughter's life with us.. along with THP's involvement!

Thanks y'all. We had a wonderful day!

You know what she was the most excited about? The fact that she can now sit in the front seat with the airbag! I would never let her because of the warning on the visor. LOL.
