Just a little dusting of snow at Leatherman Lane, but the horses couldn't be happier (and that's what it's all about after all)

From our caffeinated crew to yours, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! 🫶☕️🐴
The horses are our first priority, no matter what the weather is doing at Leatherman Lane! So naturally, I walked over to feed with our barn manager this morning, just as we were getting a tornado warning. Which we agreed, didn't apply to us! 🤷♀️🤣🤦♀️ (In our defense, it was drizzling at the time).
Per usual, no damage here (thank God) Just a serious soaking for the care team & a bunch of unfazed horses who are living their best life here! 🫶☔️

The girls were in charge of getting round bales out to the horses this morning and I think we nailed it (the horses think so too) 😁🫶😊

Hot chickens get ice water to help cool them down, so we don't cook our eggs before they are laid! 🤣🤷♀️
Hope you are all staying cool this summer and getting creative in keeping your animals from overheating in the summer heat!

When the hubs offers to help feed dinner and spends a little extra time with his best girl 🫶
He might look big, but he's really just a big baby 🫶

Our farm equipment gets baths more than our horses do 🤣 gotta keep"m clean & well maintained so they last and look good!!
We have the best supervisors! They always make sure the improvements get done properly and are grateful for the additions 🩷 Thanks to @lewisstrickland123 for helping us out and doing a great job, as always!
We lost a family member today…
Chief has been fighting squamous cell carcinoma for some time. His owner & one of my dearest friends did everything in her power to help him fight! Today, he wanted to be done. Today, he wanted to stop fighting and rest. So today, we helped him do just that.
With some of our barn family gathered around her (and many praying from afar), Colleen made the hardest decision a horse mom can make, to end his suffering and let him cross the rainbow ridge without her. She was inspiringly brave, and it was a beautiful sendoff.
I am so thankful for our barn family, care team, and my amazing husband, who this has also hit very hard.
Please lift this farm, our family, and my friend up in prayer and join us in celebrating a life well lived and the noblest of steeds, our Chief ❤
These giraffes have plenty of hay, but love the leaves when it rains 🤦♀️🤣🤷♀️💗
