Ocala International Horse Show 2025! These girls competed against top riders from all over. Nila and Gwen have spent the past year learning each other and becoming a team. They competed together for the first time last year at Ocala not placing which we were prepared for because it is a process. This year they finished 4th out of 14 with a 1st place vote in the championship! Annie and Presley showed in academy on Saturday facing challenges and working through them. Sometimes horses have bad days too. The girls pushed through and rode strong bringing home a 6th and 7th out of big classes. I hope the girls always remember it’s not about the ribbon, it’s about doing something you love and never giving up! Girls you made us proud!!

We had so much fun getting to meet these horse stars! During the day they were busy shooting their tv scenes for the new series Blue Ridge. At night they were relaxing and munching on hay! A couple of them were in Lainey Wilson’s music video 4X4XU! The grey horse, Jasper shot an UGG commercial with Post Malone in Nashville! Such a cool group of horses! So if you are looking for something to watch check out the movie or the TV series, Blue Ridge! See if you can spot one of these guys!

What a great start to the show season! These girls made us SO proud! Annie rode hard in the academy 11-13 WT in a tough class bringing home a 4th and 6th! Annie wanted one last show ride on Gunner but sadly she is out growing him. It’s time to step up to GiGi so be looking for them at the next show! Presley and Gunner had two fantastic rides in two competitive classes. She is coming home the academy 9-10 equitation and showmanship (split b) champion! She has been patient and worked so hard for those victory passes! Nila and Gwen came out Saddleseat 12 and under Equitation Grand Champions. Then they closed out the night for us as the WT Pleasure 12 and under Grand Champions in an exciting class of horses and riders! Thank you to the show staff for a wonderful show! Thank you to our parents!!

When barn friends become family ♥️ These girls have known each other since since 3rd grade. Starting in September one by one they turned 16, Sept. 7 Cadence, Nov. 5 Layna, Nov. 7 Khloe and Bella. Watching them grow into beautiful, strong, loving young women has been such a blessing. They are such great role models for our younger girls that look up to them everyday at the barn. The barn has taught them so much more than how to ride. Anything from fixing golf cart tires (creatively 🤔), pressure washing, fighting off mad barn cats, and the list could go for a while. Most importantly it’s taught them to never give up and that hard work always pays off. I am thankful for each one of you! I am so proud of you ladies! Keep dreaming big you are going to do amazing things and I can’t wait to watch! You will always be family! Happy Sweet 16!! Your barn family loves you!! ♥️♥️
