Rei was a rodeo bronc in another life.

Cross training! Rei got to experience the flag today and we took advantage of the moment to encourage forward canter transitions and look! The witch didn’t make an appearance! 🧙‍♀️❌

Someone smelled sheep on my boots and was remembering her pasture buddies of by gone days. 🐑 I think she was reflecting on how they were so much easier to get along with than her current pasture buddy. 😂

Dr. Brad Powell remains the only vet so far who can successfully sedate Rei. She took extra drugs and the halter just barely fit her, but her teeth are straightened out, her coggins taken, and her shots given. We’re ready for the spring season now!

Had a blast judging today! It was a fun course and a fun group of people. Make sure to come join the fun in February!

I haven’t been very active lately as I’ve been preparing Hope Equestrian for a transition that I’ve been dreading all summer.

A few months ago I received notice that the barn owner of our current facility was choosing to close the facility to the public. Thankfully I was given the summer to finish out my current roster of lessons before needing to move.

I am moving my horses to a new facility where they will be receiving wonderful care, but where unfortunately I will not have unlimited access to the indoor.

This means that currently I will not be taking any more new students.

I am so thankful to all the students, parents, and supporters who have made the last two years possible. It’s been an absolute dream to be able to share my passion for horses with so many.

Moving forward, keep an eye out for future opportunities offered by Hope Equestrian to learn about horses and their care and responsible ownership, as well as some opportunities for kids too!

My husband and I are searching for land and hope to build our own facility so I can return to a full lesson program. (So if you know of any, give us a shout!)

Thank you everyone for all your continued support and please keep following for future updates!

Congratulations to Tessa Sanderson for all your success at the Crook County Fair! Tessa comes for lessons in the summer and then practices hard at home and all those ribbons are proof of her hard work paying off. I look forward to seeing how this pair does at State Fair!
