The surprise of a lifetime!!! 😲

Three years ago today, on Easter Sunday, I went down in the morning to feed the horses and found a foal with CC. We had no idea she was pregnant. It was such an incredible miracle and a core memory I will never, ever forget. We named her Easter Sunday but we call her Sunday. She has taught us so much and brings so much joy and laughter to everyone. She still annoys the others from time to time with her baby antics and zoomies but it’s been one of my favorite things to watch within our herd. Happy birthday to the baby! 🥳

No shame here. Don’t mind me staring into horse trailers I pass either… or speed up to catch up to. 😅

If you’re like us, you don’t put the care of your horses in someone else’s hands lightly. Our usual sitter and the 1 person we do trust (shout out to Melanie) was unavailable this weekend for our mountain getaway but I remembered meeting Kaitlyn at an event in town recently. She and her husband were collecting toys for Christmas for the families in Western NC affected by Hurricane Helene. That alone made me admire her and her giving heart. We got to talking and she told me about her pet sitting business. Like Melanie, she has been a horse girl her whole life. I knew I had found “the one” haha! And let me tell you, she has been absolutely phenomenal. She has sent an update at every single feeding with photos, videos, and info about what she did, how they behaved, etc. Knowing we have someone else I can trust our herd with is invaluable. I highly recommend her to anyone needing pet sitting but don’t wait if you have a vacation planned because her calendar fills up quick!

Thank you so much Kaitlyn! Having peace of mind allows us to truly relax and we are so grateful for that!

☀️Good morning and happy December! I hope you’re all enjoying the holiday season. We had a surprise snow here Tuesday and it sure was beautiful!

I absolutely loathe asking for money; my mom raised me to be an independent woman 💪🏻 and l’m as stubborn as they come. But I have to remind myself that I have a nonprofit organization and it’s okay to ask for support every now and then. We found a cute little trailer close by on Marketplace for $2,000. If you’d be willing to donate a few bucks, we would be eternally grateful. 🙏🏻 Anything helps! I know it’s the holidays and you’re being asked to give everywhere you go it seems. Those organizations do amazing work obviously but they also receive significant funding in ways we never will. If you can’t give, I completely understand! Share this post instead! 🫶🏼

If you prefer to give via Venmo or PayPal, I’ll post those links in the comments. ❤️

Big things have been happening here! Or maybe I should say, little things? 🤭

We have named our mini Sunny because he makes everyone’s day brighter. ☀️ He and Biscuit finally got to be in the same pasture after Sunny’s quarantine! Biscuit is loving having a little buddy by his side. I’ve only seen them really playing together once and it was one of the cold mornings last week but of course I didn’t have my phone. Sunny was also gelded a few weeks back and did great! It was another “first” for me and I enjoyed learning. He healed up nicely over the next couple of weeks and is doing great. I’m loving my “front yard” ponies!

The next order of business is getting Cheyenne’s pasture fenced so she can be next to the littles again. She has always been an outcast with the bigs and she has her usual nervous energy again. It was amazing how much more calm she was when she was with Biscuit.

After that, we hope to finally start on our arena. We have an awesome spot but it needs quite a bit of work before we can really utilize it. With only one person (my husband Isaac) working on those bigger projects, they always take quite a bit of time but I’m looking forward to having a safe space to ride.

That’s all for now! Thank you all for your continued support and love.

‼️I realize this is a big ask and may seem ridiculous but you miss every shot you don’t take so here I am.

We need a horse trailer. We have rented the ones we’ve used or had to pay for someone else to haul a horse here. Not only do we need one for emergencies, we need one to be able to accomplish the goals I have for our rescue. We don’t receive consistent help and horses are expensive yall. The most expensive are two of our rescues - Lily and Cheyenne. Anywho, moving on because we all know how expensive life in general is these days. My ask is this - if you or someone you know has an old, small bumper pull stock or horse trailer sitting around rotting they’d be willing to donate or let go of for super super cheap, please let me know. It can need some basic cosmetic work or tires but we just need something to start with. All donations are tax deductible so the value of the trailer could be used for that. Or, if it’s something someone needs a little money for, the discount from the value could be used.

As painful as it has been to see the devastation in our beloved mountains, it has been incredible to see how our community has responded. It seems like everyone wants to help in some way.

I’m grateful to have friends in my circle with hearts aching to help in whatever way possible. When I ask myself, how can I help? What resources do I currently have that could be useful? Pasture space… that’s what I have to offer, so that’s what I am offering. My good friend’s husband sells fantastic quality horse hay that he brings down here from up north. With a desire to help like so many others, he knows his resource to offer is hay. He is on his way over to the mountains now to drop off his first load. We decided to partner together to have a bigger audience and to give folks the ability to make tax-deductible donations towards the cost of the hay and delivery. Facebook’s fundraising is awesome but the payment from the fundraiser doesn’t come immediately. It can take up to 3 months. Neither of us have the financial resources to wait for that long. If you are interested in donating, I have pasted my PayPal and Venmo links in the comments below. Please notate in your donation “storm relief hay” so that I can make sure those monies stay separate.

Also, in order to receive displaced horses there are some projects we would need to complete here first. We need to bush hog (and bale if possible) our pastures because unfortunately, they’re full of foxtail. We also need temporary fencing supplies - solar panel, step-in T-posts, electric poly rope, and gates or supplies to make electric fence gates. If you’d like to donate to this project, please notate “pasture preparation” when you make a donation.

Thank you all who have supported us so far! 🙏🏻

PLEASE SHARE…..

If you or someone you know needs a place for displaced horses to stay, we have pasture space that could be temp-fenced if needed.

I am devastated by the damage Helene has done to our beautiful state and surrounding areas. I can’t even imagine what it must feel like to be displaced or helpless and stranded. My heart is breaking seeing all of the pictures and videos. I am praying for everyone impacted!

I took one look at this little face and fell in love.

One of my goals is to have a mini that I can have trained as a therapy horse (assuming his personality is right) that I can take to nursing homes, schools, etc. I’m not exactly sure of the steps I’ll need to take to get there but I know God placed this desire on my heart a long time ago so I’m working toward that dream. This is Otho (to be renamed) and he’s currently at the kill pen that we saved our other three rescues from. I’m hoping he can be the face of TPES and help bring in funds by attending birthday parties, photo shoots, and the like. I’ve put down a deposit on him but still owe $225. If you feel led, we would be grateful for any donation, no matter how small. If donations exceed my balance, those will be used to prepare his quarantine space, purchase items I’ll need toward his care, and help pay for his veterinary care. He is still a stud and will need to be gelded. I’ve also been told he is breathing a little heavy and needs to get home asap. You can donate directly to TPES by clicking the “Donate” button below. I also have Venmo and PayPal. 🫶🏼

Summer is quickly approaching! Do you or someone you know need volunteer hours or interested in helping?? We always have a ton of projects happening around the farm as well as regular maintenance. We have volunteer opportunities from picking up rocks and sticks to building run-ins, paddocks, an arena, and everything in between. The horses can be brushed, bathed, or worked with for those with the experience and comfort level needed. There’s something for everyone and we would be so grateful for any help - no matter how big or small. Please message us if you’re interested! Please share!
