I’m posting on the forum to see if we can get a little help for our dear friends Mike and Nancy Houghton of Woodstock Miniatures. They are having an abundant amount of medical problems which are making it very hard on them to do the many chores that have. So a lot of us have been emailing back and forth and decided to send them a little money, so they can pay someone to do their chores for them. Maybe have enough to pay for all the extra gas they are having to pay out going back and forth to doctors appointments. I know they have to chop wood a lot of it living in Minnesota, maybe some of this can go towards that as they can no longer do it all by themselves. I’m hoping that this will prevent them for being forced to get rid of all of their horses in a hurry. Maybe this little extra will allow them to have the time to place them in deserving homes or be able to make it more chore friendly for them??? I don’t know. All I know is that they are very giving people and if you can, maybe give to them.
Their address is posted right on the front of their website, so Im going to put there website address and you get their address there.

Here is just one of the emails that I got back,
Hi All!
There are 62 names on Nancy's email list! Do you realize that if we all sent them $ 10.00 a month they would have $ 630.00 extra money a month to to pay someone to clean their home and someone else to come chop their wood! They probably have lots of other expenses we don't know about and this amount of money could help give them something very important.... peace of mind! Because they live so far out in the wilderness, they would need more money than others would to get someone to travel to do these jobs. Even a gift of $5.00 a month from us would help so much. if all gave $5.00 a month they would receive $315.00 a month! If we all just give what we can, it would help so much!
Nancy has always been there for me with any mini questions I have had, no matter how silly they sometimes must have seemed! Not many successful breeders are so gladly willing to help others learn! She is a one of a kind person that truly loves people and animals! I am sending a 10.00 bill once a month(starting today!) to her address. I am going to send cash (folded inside of a Christmas Card or just a piece of paper). They do not have the means to easily go to the bank to cash checks and I don't think any of us live close enough to be the one to deliver moneys donated. I live in CA. Mine first donation is going out today! This will truly be a special Christmas for them knowing they have friends across the US! It will also be a special Christmas for all of us knowing that we truly have the real meaning of Christmas giving in our hearts!
I know you are all special people because you are on Nancy's list of friends! Have a very wonderful Christmas! Health and happiness to you and yours throughout the new year!
