Happy heavenly birthday to old Mouse. He would have been 37 today. I know he's enjoying running free with all of his old friends that he outlived. I miss the old man, though. 💔

This is my favorite explanation of these concepts. BANANAS

The most expensive, luxury cat bed, only for the most bougie barn cats.

Hey... Someone left the faucet on.
God, you can go ahead and turn it off. For just a bit. Not complaining, but might have left hay on the trailer.

Today heaven gained a legend. Prime Time Mouse 4/28/87-3/22/24. He's hanging out with Tango and I've lost a good friend that I've known for 32 years. He kept all my secrets that I told him, somehow didn't kill me in our idiot youth and became the most trustworthy friend as we got older. Hope he's getting to run all out again, that was always his favorite thing. Crazy barrel horse. 💔

Barry is totally unimpressed with the weather. Barry in training is also unimpressed, but wants to watch his sister's play. Mogwai and Gizmo think it's fabulous. Edison is so happy about the snow.

I'm with Barry.

If I'm ever kidnapped, it was by this van.

Anyone feeling sorry for Barry needs to know that he has a nice tack room with more wool and sheepskin "cat beds" than a house cat can imagine. Oh yeah, and a heated cat bed.

So don't believe his lies, especially when I'm feeding him his canned food.

Congratulations to Danger for employee of the year. Carries 600 lbs of feed and still gets decent gas mileage. Drove almost 2000 miles to horse shows in July and kept the AC cold. Hauls jumps, the manure spreader and whatever I need him to do without complaint. Good job Danger Ranger!❤️

Just in case anyone was wondering. BTW I didn't blanket my crew, but I did move them inside.

Happy Thanksgiving, especially to the mares that love us (or put up with us)

Today we lay to rest Surprise. After fighting with constant hoof abscesses since May, we decided that it was time to let the old man rest. When you're a 30-something horse, little things like hoof abscesses become a big deal. They'd gotten up into the coffin bone and weren't clearing up. He was losing weight no matter what I did, and although his mind was still sharp, his body was falling apart.

Surprise will go to the Texas Tech veterinary lab, where he will continue to teach students even after he is gone. He was a fabulous school horse, and taught so many how to jump and how to ride the roughest trot ever.

We will certainly miss him♥️

Had a wonderful time at the Big 5 banquet, I'm proud to be a supporter of this association and the opportunities it provides. Proud of little PD Quarantine cash for winning the halter and knife. Edison won the plant in a drawing (Sort of, thank you Alwen!)

I'm feeling attacked as a trainer 😂

Seriously, show riders. I love you guys, now relax, dang it!

4h fences and 4h riders, come jump!

I feel like this was written for me, and for all of us in the horse industry.

Last week I went to see the Movie Aquaman in theatre. I have to admit, I haven’t made time to watch TV or movies in a really long time, which had me feeling like an Amish kid seeing a moving …

Why lesson horses are worth a million dollars: Tres holds perfectly still while Eddie perfects his polo wrapping technique.

Such a beautiful moment when they get it. Aaaaand then it's lost again.

For the love of horse gods... OUTSIDE REIN!
