Yesterday was bittersweet for us as we said goodbye to sweetie. She’s literally been the barn favorite for the last 6 years and will be missed greatly by all. Sweetie will be living her best life with her own teenage girl to spoil her endlessly as the queen that she is. We can’t wait to see all that they accomplish together. Great things await this new pair. Congratulations to Ella and the Smith family.
