Happy Halloween 🎃 👻🏴‍☠️

Our girl Sweet is wishing everyone a best time, she dresses up for Halloween everyday!

This is an older picture from when the great Bella Vista Equine Veterinary Services removed her eye.

Prior to coming to us Sweet had an eye injury and she had a shrunken eyeball. Even though it didn’t seem to bother her she was spooky and would get irritation in the shrunken eyeball. So we decided to remove the eye. Since removal she is no longer spooky and her eye socket has no irritation.

We are thankful for the great BV staff for always providing the best care!

Me: "Oh look, a beautiful majestic horse laying down! 🥰"

The Horse: Sprawled out completely flat, looking like a total crime scene. 💀🐴

Turns out, horses have the absolute weirdest sleep schedules in the animal kingdom. Here is the breakdown:
• The Standing Leg-Lock: They can literally lock their knees and ankles like a parking brake to nap while standing up.
• The "Lookout" System: Because they are prey animals, they take shifts. While one horse is flat on the ground dreaming about carrots, the rest of the crew stands guard like a tiny, furry security detail.
• The REM Rule: They can nap standing up, but if they want to enter deep REM sleep and actually dream, they have to lie completely flat on the ground. (Cue the mini-panic attack for every horse owner driving past the pasture).
• The 15-Minute Power Nap: Adults only sleep about 3 hours a day, broken up into chaotic 15-minute bursts. Meanwhile, baby foals just sleep all day long like furry teenagers.

So if you see a horse dozing off today with one hind leg lazily cocked up, just know they are living their best, highly-efficient life. 💤

We came. We saw. We survived the All American Quarter Horse Congress! 🏆🐴

There is truly no place on Earth quite like it. It is a magical land where sleep is an urban legend, the competition is absolutely fierce, and our horses officially have a better personal chef, fitness routine, and wardrobe than I do. Seriously, they are rocking custom sheets and a meticulously balanced diet while we survived on black coffee, fair food, and sheer adrenaline.

But honestly? It was never just about the ribbons. It was about chasing down those personal goals, pushing through the exhaustingly long days, and leaving everything out there in the arena.

We are finally back home, currently drowning in a literal mountain of laundry, and our bodies are sore in places we didn't know could ache. But as we unpack and inevitably start preparing for the next one, we all know the truth: we would do it all again in a heartbeat for that chance at a Congress bronze trophy.

Thank you to everyone who made this marathon of a week possible! Now, if anyone needs me, I'll be sleeping for the next business week. 😴👇

Day 26 of is coming a little late today because-

We ARE HOME!!! Whew!

What a great All American Quarter Horse Congress we had. We learned things, we had rides that we were proud of and goes that we weren’t. We laughed, cried, celebrated, worked hard, and walked and rode lots of miles.

SHOUTOUT to all the Horse Show Moms and DADS that make it possible for their kids to compete at the Congress. This show is long and expensive but a HUGE opportunity to those that get to compete at it.

We are honored every year to take a great group of horses and riders to the Congress. Each time they step into the arena they are growing and achieving something, even if it doesn’t go the way we had hoped for.

✌️out Congress 2026

Good Luck to those competing the next few days!!

Day 24!!

This is one of my all time favorite quotes!

In the horse world, this couldn't be closer to the truth. There are no shortcuts, no magic buttons, and no fast tracks to becoming a true horseman or achieving your biggest goals in this industry. Every bit of progress is earned one step, one ride, and one day at a time.
