We all do whatever we gotta to stay cool today! Gump is spoiled with 3 fans to keep him as comfy as possible 🥰

All the horses have extra water buckets and have been given electrolytes since last week to prep for the high humidity. They're mostly parked in front of their fans too!

The heartbreak is the WORST, especially when it's extenuating circumstances no one can fix 💔

🚨 INSTRUCTOR REALITY CHECK 🚨
Things They Don't Tell You About Teaching Riding:

🎓 "If you can ride, you can teach"
REALITY: Being a good rider ≠ being a good teacher. Pedagogy, psychology, and communication skills matter more than your last show ribbon.

📱 "Students will respect your time"
REALITY: You'll get calls at 10 PM asking about tomorrow's lesson and texts asking if "light rain" means lessons are cancelled.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 "Parents will appreciate your expertise"
REALITY: Dr. Google and YouTube make everyone an expert. You'll defend basic safety protocols to parents who "know better."

☀️ "Work outside in beautiful weather"
REALITY: You'll teach in 100°F heat, freezing rain, and hurricane-force winds.

💔 "Share your passion with others"
REALITY: You'll love seeing breakthroughs but watching students quit due to money, fear, or teenage drama will break your heart repeatedly.

🏠 "Great work-life balance"
REALITY: Weekends and holidays are your busiest times. Date nights happen on Mondays (if you're lucky).

BUT HERE'S THE TRUTH:
Despite all this, when a scared kid gets their first canter or an adult conquers their fear... when you see that spark in someone's eyes as they connect with their horse...

You remember why you chose this impossible, beautiful, crazy career.
The hard parts make the magic moments even more precious.

Been there? What reality check would you add? 👇

Corinne won the disciplined rail western jackpot and the all around 14-18

Sky and Trading Rumors won their first class ever, in the Ranch pleasure.

Anna survived the marathon disciplined rail showmanship 🥰

Everyone else had class wins, great rides, and good fun! Thanks to everyone who pitches in to unload and pack up when Will isn't with me!!!!!!!

Happy Father's Day to all the dads who sit in the sun at horse shows, eat dust at lessons, take all the videos and photos they're instructed to, and soothe sassy teenage girls. We appreciate you!

Hot summer shows 🥰

The outdoor shows have officially begun for our crew! Full of best friends, lots of sun screen, first time ribbons, first time shows, some baby horse meltdowns, ZERO naps until the drive home, and lots of laughs. Grateful for all the good people in our lives, and the wonderful horses who bring us together.

Georgia was the queen all weekend. Did you know it's fun to dress them up??? I'm not sure who loved it more but we'll enjoy it together!

May we always remember and revere the ultimate sacrifice so many gave for our freedoms today

Must tie, stand for Farrier and to be saddled, no funny business. Can have a motor, as long as there's no funny business attached
Budget high 4 figures, and will consider lease options from the right person.
