There are things that non horse people just don't understand simply because they have not had the blessing of being with a horse long enough to let them change you. They don't understand that a horse reads your energy before you even step into the pasture, hears your heartbeat and senses the burdens you carry. & they respond. I learned this magic as a troubled teenager but my husband had not yet experienced it. Then one day, when he was carrying a mountain of worry, his horse pinned him in the corner of the shelter. He tried to move around Taxi, but he gently pressed him to the wall. They were there for a long time. I watched as Taxi breathed up & down my husbands body, gave that exaggerated sigh- that horses are experts at- & left the shelter. I hope you have a chance to take a deep breath today with a horse or human. It's all good-you got this!

This is the exact spot she cast in last night. Is it just me or does it seem like she is telling the fence off?!

& sometimes you get a call at work "Sweetie Girl cast." & you drop everything grab your keys & drive like you're on the autobaun. Tristan Aase , Brooke Aase & Bay Gaustad thank you for being our 1st responders & helping get her up. She seems fine & we'll keep a close eye the next few days. Video is her investigated the fence she got stuck under a few times. So brave! Picture is Aurora Aase checking her vitals.

Do you believe in fairies? I recently told my 2nd cousin that at night the fairies come & twist our horses manes to create stirrups & reins to ride off into the night. She wrinkled her nose at me as she is wise beyond her 9 years. But here is my most recent example. A perfect tiny braid! (next to a messy twist) I'd been away for 5 days so checked with the fam to see if anyone had been out braiding. Nope. Now do you believe?

Mustang update! She learned how to yield hind quarters/face up on day 1! & has never looked back, if she spooks it is over in 3 seconds & she will automatically face up for guidance (hmm...we should all do that!) enjoys being groomed(today's goal=untangle the wind twists in her gorgeous mane) accepts fly spray(on a brush), greets us with a nicker & comes over to get pets, joins up & follows everywhere, (halter & lead will be next), backs up, (she has this thing where she backs into her shelter-never seen that b4, so cute)is super curious & learns very quickly(only 1 day out of 40 that she did not want to train & honestly, she was right, it was too hot & buggy) she is an alpha mare for sure but is friendly with our other 3 horses (through the fence).
