Last week Ann arrived in Kentucky with Zenyatta’s Hall of Fame plaque and Makers’ Mark commemorative bottle. Zenyatta and Ann are pictured here with Zenyatta’s paddock mate Vixana. Thanksgiving carrots all around!
Time got away from me this morning. Aren’t these FABULOUS pics? I’ll try to manage my time better tomorrow. Have a good rest of the day. Love and hugs from me, kisses from Angel Holly, Nikko and Sugar. Kathy XOXO

Lovely photos of Z, Ann and Vixana. Beautiful baby bump too. Congrats to the Queen, Zara and her husband. Wonder how Mia will take the news. She’s a feisty little thing! Love and Hugs, JB
Sweet!!! Was there in Arcadia for the Zenyatta party and dedication. Missed you Anne! Jerry gave a great speech but he didn’t tear up like you did in Saratoga at the Hall of Fame?Let’s see – how many more plaques are there for her to be given? How about mom of the year. Looking forward to the new arrival!
Z you look so beautiful and happy in these wonderful photos. Always love seeing the bond between you and your Ann. Vixana looks very well too. Happy Dreams to all of you. Love and Hugs, JB
I keep checking in hoping to see Ann and Zenny together again and there they are, Zenny in her winter coat in foal and looking much larger now. Still get tears seeing their special loving bond as Ann embraces her as she calmly eats. So glad she is still with Vixana who got some yummy carrots too. Thanks Team Z, these photos really cheered me up.
What a treat to see these wonderful photos! Zenyatta and her Ann always bring tears of joy ❤️ Just love Zenny examining her plaque, and Ann hugging her is just priceless!! Thanks, as always, to Alys and all of Team Z!
Dear Zenny and Z Family,
So fun reading everyone’s comments. Zenny, you are getting to be quite the beautiful big Momma! Ann is just as lovely and loving as always. To see the Hall of Fame plaque is so exciting! Such a daily joy to read all of the news and comments. Hope everyone has a wonderful evening. A bit colder now and roadrunner is roosted in his usual place in the cedar tree tonight. Fed treats to our ‘babies’ this morning (our neighbor’s sweet horses, who are part of our family too). So all is well in our neck of the mountains. Praying for love and God’s blessings to everyone here in Zenny’s family, Elizabeth
She just takes your breath away every time. She looks like such a sweetie, but I’m sure she can be full of p & v when she wants! Thanks for sharing these beautiful pics with Zenny, Ann, and Vixana! Happy Holidays to Team Z and a happy and healthy New Year!
What we experienced yesterday does not form or shape our attitudes so much as what happened in childhood. Our beliefs, thoughts, and behavior patterns were formed in childhood and still hold the key to who we are today. Children are natural recorders, taking in minute detail and processing it for future use.If children regularly experience abuse and verbal cruelty, you can bet that they will, in turn, abuse and berate others.
But do our childhood experiences control what we do all of our lives, or can we change? We can definitely change if we really want to. We don’t have to drag imperfections from the past into tomorrow. So it was there. It is not holy, and it has no blessing in it. Some ancestor may be cherished, but to preserve his imperfections as our own is wrong. Claim your own life and fill it with light and love worth recording in years to come.
I have worked with one heart and one object. I have looked ahead into the future and have worked for the children of my people.

Zenny,
You are getting a little rotund, but you are as beautiful as ever. You are also one lucky horse. We all adore you. We love the pictures of your engaging with your humans. Thank you so much, Team Z.
Hugs to all.
There is NOTHING, absolutely NOTHING, except photos of Zenny with her newborns, that I love as much as seeing Ann with her girl. So thank you, Team Z, for these great photos.
Being a hardcore Zenny fan, I also remember that Zenyatta ran her very first race on Thanksgiving, making it important for Ann to see her on this day each and every year if she can. So this makes these moments pictured here even more resonant for me, as Zenny and Ann share her HOF plaque. What a story they have lived together!
Love and hugs to all and peppermint kisses to my Big Girl and her family. Z Princess and Baby Z — you are always in my heart.

What wonderful pics! Thank you Team Z!

Nothing nicer than pictures of Queen Z with her friend, Ann. Almost feels like toy could tax out and touch her, too. Beautifully done again, Alys.
