Sundays are for trail rides!

It was super muddy today so we took advantage of no saddle November with Maecy’s lesson on Smashed on Baileys today.
Took the chance-made the drive- for an almost 20 year old mare. When a horse speaks to you through a photo-idk how-They just do. 🏡
Maecy and Smashed on Baileys first barrel practice under the big lights and a few spectators
They worked through a lot of nerves and emotions on Wednesday- stage fright is a very real thing-especially for our young riders.
Recover is a word we use a lot here- you cannot predict everything that will happen. You can recover-to fix the current moment and then gain experience for the next go around. We can prepare and prepare but nothing compares to what we learn from experience.
Being able to process thoughts and remembering what to do in high intensity moments can be very challenging. Practice makes perfect.
We are very proud of you Maecy!
Had a nice trail ride today 🐎

“Nicodemus Mein Liebe” is a 2 year old Gypsy Vanner Stallion. Oh That Opie’s son. What a cool dude!
He is back visiting to continue his ground work and begin under saddle work!
Bam Bam has been getting the full “personal horse string”treatment here-extensive ground handling-major trust building-hauled everywhere-rode miles with several different riders-he’s coming along nicely.
Kimber begged and begged to ride him after we all finished up riding the others yesterday! She rode past dark and they even rode beside 7 head down the county road to the corner and back. 🙌🏽 We are proud of both horse and rider.
Good fellowship and training sessions make me happy happy! 💜
Me to my camp/lesson kids and my help 🤠
