I had such an amazing Wednesday.  I  had a visit from one of my favorite little girls all the way from Idaho. I started giving Riding lessons to her mom when her mother (Sarah Kalahele) was just a little bit older than Brooklyn is now.  She got to lope for her FIRST time, and my three year-old Mare Stevie got to do her first youth riding lesson at the same time.  What was really special is Brooklyn got to meet some of my youth students that are going to be seeing her again in a few weeks at Zone One in Idaho.  LOTS of big memories in the making🦄❣️ THIS is what I love about our industry-  Lifelong friendships,  making memories, and reaching goals 🙌🏻

A “HUGE SHOUTOUT” to California youth exhibitor Megan Motes who spent hours helping us at TS Paints yesterday ❣️ Melissa Sachs had three horses to show in the English Trail and Megan spent her afternoon handling Emmy and Ned as their owners had not yet arrived in Tulsa!! Megan was a pleasure to be around, friendly, capable, experienced and willing to help with whatever was needed ~ we’d like to express our thanks and let her Mom, Suzie, and her trainer, Michelle Hofmeister, know how proud they should be of this sweet young woman!!
