Don’t give up on a dream because of the time it will take to accomplish it.
Time will pass anyway.

Filled!! Thank you so much to all the inquirers!! I was overwhelmed by the response. Remember I still offer lessons and trailer in sessions!

ISO! Internship/learning opportunity for an intermediate riding student! Fun and exciting atmosphere with safety as a priority.
Must have some basic knowledge of riding and handling horses, willing to get dirty and actually work, and must be able to commit to three days a week and show up.
I require two work days and the third I give you a lesson on one of my quality trained horses, all the while learning proper horsemanship (groundwork, training, riding) maintenance care (vet, farrier, Chiro, leg care) and experience at a working training and broodmare farm.
I do attend shows bi monthly (I barrel race currently) and applicant would assist with tacking, grooming at first, then if hard work is applied, will have opportunities to ride my horses at shows.
Please DM for questions or to apply.

Sometimes a wild horse needs to feel that his rider is just a little WILDER.

While I didn’t get any photos of myself or video, I was very happy with the clinic Sarah Rose put on this Sunday. Everyone improved dramatically with Sarah’s one on one approach and riding each persons horse to feel what they needed.
It was my first time running the pattern since Zestys KS diagnosis and injections. She was feeling really good!
We worked on our first barrel approach and my hand positioning, learning to utilize her training and neckrein. At second she is wanting to anticipate and start the turn too early, so my practice will be driving her past the barrel and stopping her at fence if she tries to turn before I cue her to. She’s a quick learner, and just a few drills had her really driving around the barrel.
At vet this morning (the last two weeks I’ve seen way too much of this) getting health certificates for Piper and Zesty and Boujee is getting a checkup after Zesty ran her in the fence 🤦🏼‍♀️. Ahh horses.

C**t by Cutting Humor out of First Daylight. One week old.

Had a great training/conditioning ride this morning and let Zesty try out the new patience pole by

First Daylight had a beautiful c**t by Cutting Humor early Sunday morning. We have two more due in Arkansas in the next coming weeks, and one more in Louisiana. The babies are so fun!

Pedicure day for all the horses yesterday. Everyone was well behaved including the yearlings. Zesty got a full set of shoes.
Worked on a new pattern with Zesty and Boujee to continue building strength and power in the turns.
Finally figured out the key to keeping Boujees saddle from slipping and had the best loping session on her ever. She’s finally balanced in her circles so we took it to the pattern, and wow. These horses that are bred for this- once you put a foundation on them, the pattern is so easy. First complete lope through and she’s a natural. Already powering out the turns and wanting to get gritty. It’s amazing.
Gym this morning after dropping kids to school, chiropractor then home for Chiro for horses, a lesson and riding more horses, then bake a cake then pick up kids then moms to celebrate her birthday. Long day, let’s get it!! 👏😃

Today’s session was quite the workout for both of us. We’ve been practicing a four barrel drill I’ve seen a few pros do, and omg it’s a core and leg workout. The horse gets pretty tired too so you can’t do it long. But it’s a good one for building strength and power.

Last pic- my stepdad is building me shelves and a bench in my small weekender. Gonna have a coffee bar and place to put my hats and shirts, and a bench for storage and a step up to the mattress! 😃

Hit the local jackpot Tuesday night with my student and her family. It was her very first horsie outing ever and she absolutely loved it! So proud of her and Piper her pony. They handled the warmup pen craziness with bravery and remained calm. Piper was super good for her exhibitions. They are going to be an awesome team in the future.
Zesty was a bit excited and I worked on calming her down. We did two exhibitions with control in mind, but our run was all over the place. We still managed to stay in the 16s, but it was sloppy. We’ve got homework to do to tighten those turns; if only this rain would go away. Honestly for our second run back, it was decent. Always room to improve on both our ends. Our first NBHA race is this Saturday. Very excited!

On foal watch these days… First up is Finer Things, in foal to Game Winner.
Tigger says, Is it here yet??

Never judge people by the car they drive or the house they live in.
It’s more about the horse they ride. 🐎🐪🏇🏻

⭐️Show me your horse and I’ll tell you who you are⭐️

No horse is perfect, and they all have their off days. But if a horse has sorry manners the majority of the time, it says a lot about the owner.

There is only one way to avoid criticism: do nothing, say nothing, be nothing.

Tis the season…
For mud!
Got the chicken coop completely cleaned out, hosed it down (a few spiders may have dropped on me 😱) and rebedded nest with fresh hay and shavings. It smells wonderful!
No fancy Christmas pics this year. Busy finishing up gifts and getting ready to go see family.

While we didn’t get the results we hoped for, we had a great time together! Here’s to the next race!

Any horse I’ve gotten in to train no matter the discipline or what level they were competing, none of them have been able to ride on a loose rein with control at all three gates. A lot of horses going around competing out there that are hollowed out and have no idea how to use their hind ends and collect up. It’s one reason why I start over with them.
Just because you get it in frame doesn’t mean it’s collection.
If I can’t wtc on a loose rein with control there is no point in doing anything else. That horse has to learn to balance himself before I start asking for him to collect up.

Happy National Day of the horse! My three 🥰

Took the lesson to Lamar Dixon arena Thursday night and invited some friends. We had a great time!
Boujee did amazing for having a week off. No silly stuff, she’s growing up. It was Avyns first time riding off my property on any horse and she did awesome! So proud of how far Piper has come in her training too. All around good times! ❤️

6 years 🥰

Six wonderful years of owning this amazing heart horse.
I can’t put into words how much this mare means to me. We have done so much together, yet have so much more to accomplish! And I can say I have put the training in. Yes I’ve had lessons and help along the way, but I’ve trained this mare from the start.
God knew she was exactly what I needed when I went to that auction 6 years ago with a list of yearlings to look at. Most went out of my price range- I was about to walk out, but something told me to wait. She was towards the end, and the last horse just sold for 5k over my budget. We decided to go look at her again before bidding. When the gavel slammed, we thought we were outbid- and we may have been. But for whatever reason the other buyer backed out, and they handed us the sale slip. I cried. I think Brandon did too but for other reasons, lol 😂 (he was not into horses then).
