It’s MY BIRTHDAY! Photo by John Shirreffs

Good Morning,

Well, to all of my friends born on April 1st…and ME…HAPPY BIRTHDAY! (That includes Dottie’s sister, Fran!) I think I’m having some FUN visitors today from California to help me celebrate. It should be exciting!

Here is my cake from last year’s party at Barn 55! This is the photo of me literally taking a huge bite out of it. As Steve reminded Dottie yesterday, ZENYATTA really likes frosting! I bet my cake this year will have some!

I hope you have a wonderful day! The postcards are arriving. We begin the drawing next week.

I’m off to get ready for my guests! We’ll take lots of photos to share with all of you!

It’s PARTY TIME!

Yippee!

With Love,
Hugs to All~
Z

    Happy Birthday Z. Bet that on that special day a few years ago, no one would have thought what a “Zensation” you would become. You “Fooled” them all. Go celebrate and enjoy your day. We love you.

Almost leaves me breathless,you are just too much horse. I’amwaiting to see your 1st foal perhaps late Feb or earily in March 2012. I’am hoping family and or friends are taking videos of your day today so Dottie can post them for us.Dottie does such a good job for us all.any way take all the festivities in stride as you would anyway.and dont let yourself get an upset tummy from all the treats. Remember you will have another meeting with Bernardini soon you should be well rested for that.LOTS”O”LOVEjust for you Baby Girl

    I am so happy that some of your California friends are going to be at Lanes End to help you celebrate.You’ve been in the middle of so much action and have been with people almost every hour of your day that this transition has had to be somewhat difficult for you, Zeny. Oh, that we all could wrap our arms around you and give you one big birthday hug. You are so loved.

    Zenyatta Happy, Happy Birthday. Hope you have had plenty of cake and Guines today. Oh, yes especially lots of frosting. I hope you had much fun with your visitors and had lots of fun in the paddock today with your girlfriends. I loved the picture a few posts back when all of you were leaving the barn together heading for the field. Reminded me of my horses. You all seem to be so happy. I hope you have sweet sweet dreams and I love you very much. Prayers, hugs and kisses sent your way. Love, Peggy

    Zenyatta, Happiest of Birthdays to you. Was thinking about an interview of John in which he said all of the people at the barn were like family. I bet you really miss your family. Too bad you can’t meet with Bernardini, then spend some time back at good old 55 to make you stay emotionally calm and happy for a while. Can’t wait to see your latest birthday pictures.
