Thank You for a successful Breast Cancer Fundraiser!!!
The Girls from Salon Eclipse with Sammy, Farm Boss
As everyone knows, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month & We want to thank Salon Eclipse & our community for helping us raise money for The Nation Breast Cancer Foundation. The girls from Salon Eclipse came out & did hair extensions for the “Pink Hair for Hope” . We had pony rides, pictures & a delicious cake that was so graciously donated by Moriarty Cakes of Blairsville. Our mascot Sammuel Addams even has his hair extensions to show his support!! A special Thanks to Devin at Persaud Jewelers in Blairsville, for the donations. We raffled 2 of his creations, both sterling silver bracelets with the Breast Cancer charm on them. We couldn’t have done this without everyone’s help!!! To make a donation to the NBCF go to thier website at:http://www.nationalbreastcancer.org/. To see other events & happenings at the farm, go join our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/astepabove!

Our 3rd Annual Halloween Event Oct.31st, 2009 5-9pm
I will be dressed up too!!!
We are inviting everyone to come out & have some fun with us for Halloween!!! My kids came up with this idea when they got “too big” to trick or treat” This is our 3rd year & it just keeps getting better each year! Call me old fashioned, but I don’t consider Trick or Treating “walking around the square” in a line, holding your bag open. Come out to the Stables & see what’s going on! We will have free pony rides, a costume contest, ton’s of candy & Sammuel Addams The Mini all dressed up! i will be here taking pictures of all the costumes & you can download them from here for free. After you get done here, stop in at Scarry Sherri’s for a REALLY kid freindly scarry yard!! She has tons of candy! We’d love to see you all there!

Savannah,Ga-Lefty
Hi!
I just wanted to update you on the horse I got from you. Lefty is a great match. He is the biggest baby. I love him to death. He has become the boss of all the younger horses and it is great to see him come out of his shell. Still working on getting him a little fatter but he is such a dream and fits in our family well. I am so glad Curtis showed him to me. He is the only TW we have at the stables and when the kids take lessons they like to ride him to see the different gates in horses. It is so funny to see them ride a laugh the entire time because of his walker gate.
Also he dislikes the bugs in south GA..lol.
I wanted to thank you for a wonderful buddy like lefty.
Thanks again

They closed the last show of the season last Saturday in Cleveland,Tn at the Tennessee State Show with lot’s of ribbons! Way to go guys! After all of that hard work, they are now prepared for The World Show, a week long celebration of The Best of The Best!! If only I were bigger, I could show there too! I know they will do great!
