Spring Has Sprung
Despite the torrential downpours we’ve had on Sunday and Monday and this morning (or some crazy combination of those days- I believe that it’s rained so much, I’ve lost track) everything is turning green. The trees are budding, the air is warmer and I even managed to get slightly sunburned yesterday! Spring makes me [...]
Lucky Me- Times Two!
A few years ago, I got one of those really fun to ride horses in to train. One that was already really broke. You should understand there are varying levels of broke, and even in within the horse industry, people will not agree on what a broke horse is; and just because a horse [...]
Macro Monday
Here my selections for this week’s Macro Monday Challenge…

This Makes me Smile
I know y’all are probably tired of hearing me tell you how much I love this horse- it’s not as if there aren’t another 80 horses at home I could love as much, but the fact is, I love, love, love my Gumpers! And insomuch as a horse is able he really likes me [...]
A Fatty’s Best Friend
Now before anyone goes and gets all offended about the title, you should know I’m talking about my twenty-nine year old horse, Zero. He’s the fatty! Which is good, because as a horse gets older they become harder and harder to “keep” fat and healthy. I have to commend my dad and my friend [...]
It’s a Bird, It’s a Giraffe, It’s…Only Dino!
When Zach came to visit last weekend, he was able to bring my precious to me. What exactly is my precious, you ask? My precious is his brother Guthrie’s awesome Cannon EOS 10 camera. Guth was nice enough to let me have it in Texas for the remainder of my trip here. It probably didn’t [...]

The Weekend’s Videos
Here you go…
Go easy on the comments. Honestly I’ve been on my horse about 10 times since I’ve been here. Ridiculous.
If y’all could arrange about 10 days of rain-free weather, I’d sure appreciate it!
A Fun-Filled Weekend
Well I’m back! I’m not sure yet if I’m going to share the videos from the barrel race or not- but I am going to share all about what Zach and I did, and try not to bore you with my drivel about how much I love him and blah, blah, blah. I would [...]
