Bruce decided today that everyone had to give him hugs whether they liked it or not. So Agata was first, him clinging on to her leg and wouldn’t move. Then Frances was next, digging his paw into her shoulder so she’d bend more for a closer hug.

What a fabulous day! We had Vivienne O'Connor come out to us and I got a lesson with Arthur, he was such a good boy and tried his heart out. Then some of the girls got a little showing clinic, they all rode so well. It was so lovely and we can’t wait to have Vivienne out again!

Pearls would like everyone to know that the storm was totally fine as chaos is Pearls’s natural state.
We are blessed with the yard design as it was very sheltered and we had everything else tied down and secured. All the horses got to go out when the worst was over and they went out like saints. I hope everyone road the storm out ok and my heart goes out to all those affected.

Seeing as a few people were very concerned about my wheelbarrows and where they should be for the storm. They haven’t moved…. It’s almost like I know my yard best and where is the safest places for things to be🤔🤔 thanks for the concern but anywhere else they’d have blown and caused damage.

We’ve battened down the hatches and are bracing ourselves. The horses are all in and cosy, with their leather headcollars on in case we need them on fast. Unfortunately livery yard owners don’t get to sit this one out on the sofa, we will be up and at em in the morning to make sure the horses in our care come first. This is a 365 day a year job. I love it, but I am slightly sh****ng myself that I have to drive in a “threat to life” storm! Light those candles for me!

So excited to receive my order from Hoof Boots Ireland of Trickle Nets. I absolutely adore these hay nets. They don’t use their shape, they have small holes to encourage grazing more than just hoovering. They are massive to allow a lot of hay or haylage. And the net is extremely soft so it doesn’t damage horses teeth! I got one for Rosie (along with two round feeder nets - which are also fab), and I had to get more. So now Bella (who is known for wasting hay) has one and I have 3 extras too! It’s great that we have an Irish supplier of these nets!

We had Hannah out today from The Saddle Fitting Therapist! We saw King and Pearls, as well as Domino. The last time she saw Domino we were thinking it was the end of him, but today he’s happy and sound! Listen to your horse, they’ll tell you what you need. Thanks to Brendan who is storm prepping the yard for us tonight!

Pearls getting a visit from her “brother”, King. Pearls has been a very bold patient, she’s broken out of her stable multiple times and ran up the drive. On the first weekend of February she’s allowed into a small paddock for the day time. We’ll be getting our vets to give her a once over before hand, and the team at UCD rang me to check on her as they were all thinking about her ❤️❤️

When your first canter in the new arena is this good 👌🏼👌🏼 Arthur’s weird fault has been his fear of our old arena, he hated it, and would never settle. But from day dot he has been so relaxed, willing to work, willing to listen and not just barrelling off. Maybe the vibes are better? Or maybe he knows this is home. But god his canter is like an armchair.

Pearls Update: The ups and downs of colic and surgery. Thankfully she responded to the drugs and maybe just wanted me to only have 3 hours sleep last night from worry. I got to take her out on a walk and hand graze her for 20 mins. She was very much herself. So fingers crossed we keep going in the right direction. But as we know horses are extremely sensitive animals so it’s always going to be a rollercoaster!

Happy Christmas everyone!! Looking forward to a much more relaxed Christmas this year! Hope everyone has a wonderful time with friend and family!

A year ago today!! We were setting off into the unknown and how amazing the unknown has been!

I’m certainly dancing through life right now ❤️

Hope everyone had a lovely weekend! We had a fab one! We had put lovely therapeutic riders today (which I didn’t mange to get any photos of). Exciting things happening this week.Thanks to Shona, Chloe, Aisling, Aoife and our work experience student Maeve.

Thank you to everyone that took the time to wish me Happy Birthday!!! This year has been more than u could ever wish for. I am so so happy. I never realised what hung over me for so long. But now in our new home I can breathe! Sadly this year also marks a moment I never wanted to come, I have had the same amount of birthdays with my mum and without her, next year it will be more without than with. But I thank her every day for making sure she raised a strong ass daughter that never gives up! Here’s to 32!

Bella telling us that at 23 she should be brought in first, so she took it into her own hoofs😂😂😂 she loves her bedtime

Bella decided yesterday that barging past Niall was a good idea, she then had to check why “her” massive palace was given to her brother and then put herself to bed after Aoife gave her a warning 😂😂
