This Guy Proposes to His Girlfriend Using Her Horse
…and it’s adorable.
Happy Valentine’s Day hangover! First comes love, then comes… this time lapse video of a perfectly orchestrated horsey marriage proposal.
From the romantic lighting and red carpet leading to a (very tolerant) horse, this guy’s romantic marriage proposal is the embodiment of horse-loving perfection.
From the video’s description:
“This is a compilation of the two hours leading up to and including my proposal to my now fiancée, condensed down into a short 10 minute video. Because Megan has grown up around horses all her life, I knew she would absolutely LOVE if her own horse was involved in this special moment. Here is my proposal to her in the barn where her horse, Jackson, lives… And yes, Jackson, played a huge role in this surprise marriage proposal! Thank you to everyone that helped make this special moment possible!”

Tablecloth, 1. Mini, 0.
It takes a lot of guts to conquer one’s fears. But sometimes, the scary object fights back.
Kiwi takes on the tablecloth.
Kiwi is a 4-month-old Miniature colt who is both fascinated and terrified by a plastic tablecloth on a string. Too cute to handle. Watch as he bravely takes steps to overcome his fear…
…and then make a hasty retreat back to his mom when the tablecloth attacks.
We love it when big personalities come in small packages! Go Minis. Go Riding.
Naughty Foal Gets Tough Love from Mama
Sometimes, kids just need to learn to treat their elders with respect.
It’s no secret that foals can be energetic and playful, even just downright sassy (for instance, we recently shared this video of a Paso Fino foal gaiting like crazy). But a good parent knows when to intervene when things get out of hand. Watch what happens when this naughty colt decides that it’s time to beat up on mom (note: you must be logged into Facebook to view this video):
Nothing like a little tough love to remind a baby that he better watch where he kicks out!
