Hey y'all. It's me. Who else would be here asking for help about such a goofy thing other than me? It's about a sign...again.
First of all, how is everyone and their horsies doing?
Ok, here's your sign....erm, I mean my sign story this time....
DB and DSIL just moved back home last week. They spent much of the last week readying some property to bring up two of their horses. This has all been done as quickly as possible (not going into the reasons why...suffice it to say it's an emergency situation). We put up fence today. They are leaving to get the horses tomorrow morning. They will be back Sunday night.
DSIL's name is Hope. She wants to call this 'Hope for Horses'. She has rescued and rehabed many horses. She is a true angel when it comes to horses and she truly is gifted. She has bargained, begged and bartered to get horses off the racetrack that where headed to their death because they had broken a leg. She's gotten them back up on their feet and gone on to win countless ribbons that are decorating her livingroom. Anyway...I'm completely off track here....
I want to make up a sign for them and have it hanging up for them over the drive up to the pasture for when they bring the horses home. To their own property. This is the first time they've ever had their own horses on their own property and I'm thinking it would just be a nice thing to come home to (after a six hour trip).
Ok, so 'Hope for Horses'. But how do I include my DB and DSIL and niece's name? The horse's names too? How? HELP!

and leave it at that
or include
Foxy

any or all of this can be changed if they want. I'm thinking a nice dark wood with carved letters that will then be painted with gold. I just want it to be special for when they come home. They've been through a lot and have worked hard to get this, they deserve something special to mark the occasion. I wish I could do more (suggestions are welcome).
Thanks for any help....and please excuse any and all typos...I left my glasses upstairs somewhere. If anyone feels like posting a pic of a sign I could copy I'd LOVE to see it. I think you all know what I'm going for here. When this is all said and done I don't really care if they burn this sign and replace it with something else. I just want it to be something nice for when they come home. Something 'official' for at least the time being. So much of the fun stuff has been laid aside because of the time crunch here, they really need something to make them smile before they crumple into bed at the end of all of this....and I'm sure y'all know what I'm saying.
Thanks,
Heather
