❤️Please help if you feel lead to do so and are able!

‼️‼️➡️➡️check out the comments for more reasons to want to donate‼️‼️⬅️⬅️

I am trying to fill a horse trailer with supplies to make a drop to families in need (I have been in touch with these families personally to find out the needs and there is a lot of them. Mouth of Wilson, Rugby, Lansing, Creston area) I am not sure what day I will be making this drop but trying to get as much as possible as quick as possible to get it there sooner than later!

But I am calling on everyone here on social media that feels lead to give donations or meet me with supplies to help. I am happy to plan a time to meet you to take whatever supplies you have to donate from this list.

If you can’t physically shop for them but still want to help, my Venmo is >gilleybarw< (last four numbers of my cell is 3509 if it asks) and you can donate there and I will shop for as much of these items myself as well. My goal is to fill our trailer up so we can help as many people as possible in one trip.

‼️If anyone needs a temporary place to board their horse/horses right now, please reach out to us!!! (No charge) I wish we could help in even more ways because I know there has been so many people who have lost their homes and so much more. But if we can help to take atleast one tiny thing off someone’s plate to not loose more we would be happy to.

‼️We can haul them as well! If you just need help moving them from one place to another even if it’s not here, we can do that too.

❤️Please shoot me a message and I can also send our cell #’s.

🌟Summer Horse camp at the Gilley Bar W🌟

When⏩ June 27th, 28th and 29th.
Where⏩ Glade Spring, VA

9:00 - 12:00 Thursday and Friday.
9:00 - 1:30 Saturday.
⚡️Saturday from 12:00 - 1:30 will be our riders showcase. Parents and family are invited to come watch their rider show off the skills they learned at camp during that time.⚡️

🐴I will post our full itinerary of activities for camp tomorrow along with pricing!🐎

Our goal is for your child to go home with a new interest in horses and a fire to get involved in the equestrian world. This is a horse introductory camp. We would like to introduce your child to the enjoyment of “barn time”. We will primarily be teaching horse care (grooming and feeding), knowledge in horse tack, how to halter and lead a horse, how to tack up, how to mount a horse correctly, reign management and very basic riding skills. Of course we plan to make these basic but very fun tasks a learning experience they will never forget or one that sparks a love for horses that will last the rest of their lives.

If your child already has basic horse experience but would still like to enjoy this with us, I promise they will not be bored. Some extra experience and barn time with friends can do many things. Like boost their confidence with their friends support to help them grow and take that next step in their skill level they didn’t know they needed or could do.

So come join us at the Gilley Bar W for our first annual horse camp. I hope this will be something that God continues to grow, allowing us to serve a lot of kids. God has really convicted my heart to use the skills He has given me to serve and be a light. In this season of our life He has chosen this to be the place we shine our light and I can’t wait to see how He moves.

If you have any questions about our horse camp just shoot us a message.

Tomorrow is the day… these photos give you a small hint into our fun announcement tomorrow!

We are counting down the days until we get to encourage more youth to have a love for horses. 😉Wink wink.😉

((Our youngest boy Weller has been holding a rope in his hand since he could walk. We are praying for lots of rodeo days ahead with this one, one day!!!))

06/12/2024

Does your child have an interest in horses? Would you like to give them the opportunity to have a hands on learning experience with horses this summer?

Then you don't want to miss our announcement we have coming this Friday!!! I will be giving you more details in the next few days leading up to Friday. We are so excited to see what this new adventure in our barn is going to hold and we are really thanking God for this opportunity to have more of our community enjoy it with us.

Stay tuned for Friday when we announce the first of many fun things we will be doing here at the Gilley bar W!

Tomorrow I have scans and appts all day at MD Anderson cancer center. But, for today we are having a great time at !

Let your babies grow up to be cowboys! 🤠
This little two year is obsessed with anything bronc riding or bulls! His slow motion replay will give anyone a run for their money!

Nothing more true… must be something about that third kid!

For those concerned about the 🐈 …Wilkes adores Birdie and all cats. (Sometimes to much!) He has learned his lesson on why we don’t jump on the trampoline with cats! 🙀

10/09/2022

We are greatly missing the other half of our Gilley boy party right now but we know they are being spoiled at home with all the Grandparents! 2 days down and 3 to go! Travis and I might need a nap but it has been worth every penny, every step and every “are we there yet?” so far!

09/28/2022

☀️⛅️ This morning was so pretty and I got to love on the sweetest horses before work! Thank you Guy McLean for staying with us and letting us be your horse hotel! It was a pleasure to have you all and we look forward to seeing you again next week! We hope you have a great time on the road here in the states!

She will do everything, but she isn’t good at anything… except for always taking care of this wild bunch of boys!
We love this girl and she is worth her weight in gold to me! We are hoping we have finally pinpointed what’s been making her lame and she can get back to doing her job of being the barn babysitter!

08/28/2022

🏈I hope he loves football as much as I love watching him play! This season could last forever for me!
Good thing there is four of these Gilley boys and football will be a long time thing in our house!

08/08/2022

And just like that the second Gilley boy is off to Kindergarten! 🤠 In his normal cowboy fashion!
And cue the back to school photos flooding everyone’s feed for the next week or longer! You are welcome 😉!

Last night was WyLee’s last horse show as my “baby”! This week he starts kindergarten and will no longer be a “baby” in his words! Little does he know he will always be that to me!
The little boy who always wears me out, he has no stop, he always gives 110% to everything, he never complains, and he will put hisself last always if he can make someone else feel good or have what they want!
After getting home after 12 last night he says. “Mom, I know I have to help feed my horse cause he worked good for me today and your back hurts but I’m so sleepy. Could you hold me? But if you still can’t mom cause it hurts your back it’s ok!” For you kid, ANYTHING! Dirty little butt and all!

We love summer evenings making hay and being lazy with the dogs when it’s all done!
